Art book party at Freebird on Sunday


This Sunday, head on over to Freebird to celebrate the release of an art book project that was put together by local resident Robin Ross. The description from the Freebird mailing list is as follows:

Two unique "remarked, remade and reinvented" canvas books in a collaborative artistic project with 48 artists, designers, writers and creators conceived by Robin Ross will be available for their premier viewing on Sunday, April 26, 3 pm to 6 pm

to PREVIEW THE BOOKS:

ABOUT THIS PROJECT:
Robin Ross (our neighbor on Tiffany Place) asked fellow artists to create a "page" in books constructed from the remnants of Robin's own canvases.
A Very Remarkable Book is the result of 26 artitists working upon canvas pages from part of a large canvas Robin painted in 1991 entitled White Painting #4. A second book, Remarked Upon, is the collaboration of 22 different artists made from the painting Door Without the Handle, 1994.

Freebird Books is located at 123 Columbia Street (between Kane and Degraw streets)
