Art of the Book at Seager Gray Gallery in Mill Valley CA.

We are pleased this year to celebrate our tenth anniversary of the gallery’s annual “Art of the Book” show.  Our commitment to the book as a medium for art remains steadfast. The form of the book is difficult to surpass as the most relevant symbol and richest material available to artists everywhere. For readers, even spying a book out of the corner of their eye releases a mother lode of associations, both personal and universal, exquisitely layered with memory and meaning. As always, the goal is to explore as many approaches as possible, from unique artists’ books and altered books to even broader conceptual uses of books that explore our associations to their form, content and physical presence.
