ARKIR hafa verið á þönum út og suður í sumar, en senn hefst vetrarstarfið og fundum okkar fjölgar. Þó fundir séu strjálari yfir sumartímann þá njótum við þess líka ævinlega að hitta bókverkafólk frá öðrum löndum, allan ársins hring. Í júni hittum við til dæmis Richard Stephens frá Bandaríkjunum, en hann er einn af aðstandendum Minnesota Center for Book Arts.
Spænska listakonan Sandra March frá Barcelona var líka á ferð um Ísland, en bókverkin hennar má m.a. sjá á síðunni hennar Perdita METABUK. Þó við næðum ekki fundi viljum við mæla með áhugaverðum verkum hennar.
ARKIR have been busy out and about in the summer, not getting together as often as in the winter time. Still, this summer we had the pleasure to meet book artist Richard Stephens from USA, a member of Minnesota Center for Book Arts. Meeting and getting in contact with fellow book artists is always inspiring and interesting.
We were also contacted by Spanish artist Sandra March from Barcelona and although we couldn’t arrange a meeting we would really like to recommend her art and amazing book works. Go visit her website Perdita METABUK and homepage.
