The exhibition Book/Art/Artifact showcases work from the California Chapter of the national organization the Guild of Book Workers. Book/Art/Artifact is the third major members’ exhibition; previous exhibitions have been presented at the Geisel Special Collections Library at the University of California San Diego (2016) and the Long Beach Museum of Art (2019). As with previous exhibitions, Book/Art/Artifact highlights a range of member expertise and imagination. Exhibited mediums include bookbinding, letterpress, artists’ books, and calligraphy. The exhibition introduces viewers to the idea that books are not only a collection of bound pages but also an expression of human creativity.
