ARTIST'S BOOKS / BOOK ARTS / LIVRES D'ARTISTES

This Artist's Book site contains background material about books made by artists where the definition of the book is interpreted very broadly. The site contains pages relating to the printing and making of books and is concerned with experimentation as well as with the tradition of fine printing. There are also sections on printing presses, type founding and methods of printing illustration, from wood cuts to digital printing. The Private Press now has its own page.

This site is now listed on INTUTE; the UCLA library; as well as DMOZ, the Open Directory Project, which is the largest, most comprehensive human-edited directory of the Web.
