This latest in the Spineless Wonders series of events looks at small press and artists’ publications through the theme of touch. Artists, makers, academics and librarians will be discussing the interactions between hands and book-objects, and how artists’ books themselves invite and explore touch. We’ll also be thinking about the challenges and questions such books might pose in the archive: how does touch impact on the preservation and life of books?
