"This exhibition was the result of a visit to the Centre for Fine Print Research by Maddy Rosenberg, a New York artist. We decided that as we were both involved in the book arts, that we would arrange a joint exhibition to be held in Bristol. [...] The project has provided an exciting opportunity to exhibit a selection of artists' books which work well together, on both sides of the Atlantic. There may be a huge difference in geography, but the works included in this exhibition connect, the speak the same language and have evolved from the same interest: that of presenting ideas in the format that we all understand and appreciate as the artists' book." -- Description taken from the exhibition catalog's introduction by Sarah Bodman, page 2.
