The bookRoom |

Collection

bookRoom is interested in the development of books made by artists, designers and photographers evolving in parallel to more conventional publishing such as monographs and illustrated books – an autonomous art form with its own particular means of production and distribution (including the world wide web) where the artists involved are often designers, writers and publishers of their own works.

bookRoom has also developed a reputation for fostering an engagement with the production of new works, in the form of artist’s books, by both staff and students predominantly in the photography department. We have started to collect book works from staff members, visiting lecturers and graduates of the photography course. These are exhibited at a number of international artist’s book fairs and work has been sold to important collections including the British Library, Women’s Library, V&A,Bibliothèque nationale de France and Poetry Library.
