Between the Covers

A guided exploration of selected books outside the vitrines. An opportunity to see the functionality and the relationship between interior and exterior of selected books from the Hand Bookbinders of California’s 54th Annual Members Exhibition.

There is an inherent dilemma in an exhibition of books. What is the unseen content? What does the part that is obscured from view look like? Join Beth Redmond and Insiya Dhatt as they reveal the less visible aspects of some of the beautiful and thought-provoking books created by HBC members.
