Artist Book Group

About
The artist book group is a group of artists who work in a variety of mediums, and come together to explore the book format within the context of their wider practice. The group was set up and is run by artist Jenny Smith and meets in her Edinburgh studio for a day, six times a year. The popularity of book groups inspired Jenny to set up and facilitate an artist book group. Rather than meeting to discuss novels, the group discusses work created between meetings and other elements of professional practice.
