Artist Book Workshop 2014

City of Glasgow College HND: Contemporary Art Practice

Monday 15 December 2014
City of Glasgow College HND + BA (Hons) Programme: Contemporary Art Practice

SSA has delivered an Artist Book workshop to students from City of Glasgow College since 2011. The workshop was originally devised and led by Louise Ritchie and Leena Nammari and was intended as a visual response to the SSA Annual Exhibition. Students were introduced to artist books and explored ways to create their own following demonstrations of techniques. In 2013 we welcomed Catherine Hiley from Edinburgh Printmakers and artist Astrid Leeson to take part in the demonstrations and meet the students. Students who have taken part have cited their experience as one which has informed an extended period of book exploration and have gone on to become SSA volunteers and take up our student membership.
