Call for Entries - US Conference (June 2009)

[Robert Heather]

I picked this up from US Book Arts List:

Call to Book Artists who Incorporate Wax/Encaustic in their bookworks:

A survey of book artists who are using wax as a major component of their artists' books to be given as a lecture/workshop. The director is very encouraging, so it is very likely that this will be accepted for presentation next June 2009. Who knows...it may eventually evolve into an exhibition somewhere, (Tucson?) but for now the images will be used for a powerpoint lecture format shown to an international group.

Here are the specs:

Wax and the Artist Book
International call to book artists who incorporate wax/encaustic within their bookworks. Selected images will be proposed to be presented in a lecture format by Catherine Nash, M.F.A. at the June, 2009 International Encaustic Symposium at Montserrat College of Art in Brookline, Massachusetts.

Images : preferably at least 2 different works, no more than 5, (one detail per artwork OK)
