Distributed for The Center for Book Arts<br />

The Center for Book Arts in New York City is committed to exploring and cultivating contemporary aesthetic<br />

interpretations of the book as an art object while invigorating traditional artistic practices of the art of the book.<br />

The Center seeks to facilitate communication between the book arts community and the larger spheres of contemporary<br />

art and literature. Founded in 1974, it was the first organization of its kind in the nation and has since become a<br />

model for others around the world.<br />
