Posted/Unposted - British Isles
ABOUT:
NEWS UPDATE November 2020: POSTED/UNPOSTED•British Isles has been stuck in production because of COVID but we have just been able to send out copies to all the artists and will be launching it officially in March 2021 - more info coming later!
POSTED/UNPOSTED•British Isles is co-organised by Imi Maufe (Codex Polaris) and Angie Butler (ABPress, Bristol, UK) and presents 28 artists, poets, printers and publishers from the British Isles who use (or have the potential to use) letterpress printing techniques. The constraints for Posted/Unposted projects are as follows: all work must contain an element of letterpress, address the idea of a pamphlet, be contained within a standard C5 (229 x 162 mm) envelope and printed in an edition of forty. Envelope and content are to be considered as equally important parts of the art works.
The first Posted/Unposted was produced by Imi Maufe in collaboration with Lina Nordenström (GG Studio, Uttersberg, Sweden) for the first Nordic Letterpress Collaboration, a book art project from the Nordic countries (Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden) with special emphasis on letterpress printing. The project’s aim was to create a network and a focus for letterpress and book art practices, which were not so widely utilised in this area of Northern Europe in 2016.
Participants:
David Armes, Angie Butler, Sheena Calvert, Pauline Clancy, Thomas A Clark & Laurie Clark, George Cullen, Theresa Easton, Hazel Grainger, Lucy Guenot, Julie Johnstone, Hilary Judd and Lucy May Schofield, Gen Harrison, Tim Hopkins, Erica Van Horn and Simon Cutts, Leonard McDermid, Rachel Marsh, Andrew Morrison, Linda Parr, Alistair Peebles, Mary Plunkett, Nora Schmel and Lena Wurz, Cathey Webb, Elizabeth Willow, and Phillipa Wood.
