It's the Book Arts!

an occasional Thursday feature highlighting the work of Mrs.5000 and other book artists or toilers in affiliated vineyards.

Congratulations to Atlanta's prestigious Emory University, which has joined the elite group of institutions across this great continent with a original work by Mrs.5000 in their rare book collection!!  Here's a peak of what you have to look forward to, if you happen to be in the greater Hotlanta area.


"Interlinear"
Mrs.5000, 2011

Accordion-fold with collage and acrylics; cotton-wrapped polyester thread, perforated circuit board, airplane linen, watercolor paper and wood veneer on poplar. 6 pages. 4.25 x 3.5 x 2.25 inches. 2011. Unique.




"Interlinear" will be at The City of Roses' own 23Sandy Gallery until October 29th, at which point it moves to its new home in Georgia.  So, if you live west of the Rockies, you will probably want to plan your month accordingly.

Featuring two polished stones as sorted by our very own Jennifer! Who got to see the book as a glorified stack of wood and an ominous ominous deadline!

As an Atlanta native (and sister of an Emory student) I would like to take credit for this wonderful art acquisition. The Atlanta art scene ROCKS!
