From Book Arts email list:

 

Call for Artist Books

 

 

 

 

23 Sandy Gallery is looking for unique or limited edition artist books with

a science fiction or surrealist focus. Could be books using sci-fi or

surrealist imagery, illustrations, paintings, or photographs. Or perhaps the

text is science fiction literature, poetry or whatever. It is a wide-open

topic for exploration.

 

 

This is not a juried show and no entry fee is involved. The only cost to the

artist is shipping. We are curating a selection of books to round out a

photography show. All books must be for sale and available for exhibit

August 5-September 9.

 

 

To submit your books please email Laura Russell at 23sandygallery@gmail.com.

You can send a link a web page or send me a JPG or two. Be sure to tell me a

bit about the work, including its price.

 

 

Feel free to drop me a line if you know of anyone you can recommend.

 

 

Have a good day,

 

 

Laura

Robert; do you have any idea if they accept international entries? I can't find any mention of that on their website or the form and just wondered if you knew? Thanks for the info either way.
