I just got back from the Friends of Dard Hunter meeting in Hawai'i and it
was a fabulous conference with days of immersion in handmade paper and those
enthusiastic about it. One highlight was the art show of postcard size
pieces - you can see a few on the blog listed below but a click once you are
there will take you to the whole show.



Elena, this is especially for you now that you have your own paper making
set up!

Next year, in October,  the conference will be in Atlanta at the American
Museum of Papermaking.  The conference and the museum will be a double treat
for anyone interested in the world of handmade paper.

Just realized in one of the collages you will recognize a fragment of
paper you gave me several years ago..green with zigzag shape..I do use
everything!

Subject: calling all drawers



Pamela Zwehl-Burke teaches Art 123 Figure Drawing/Anatomy at SBCC (on the
hill not the Schott Center!) credit program, Tuesdays, 11:15-4:05, class
start January 27 (I think). The class will be structured to look at basic
drawing conventions, drawing to investigate form, basic human anatomy, and,
finally, making figure drawings which document structure and surface. We
will start with our own body consciousness, learn what to look for when
"picturing" external form, how to organize what we know and see into
expressive drawings.


Pamela needs 4 more people for the Figure Drawing/Anatomy class for the
Spring semester or the class may be dropped. It's a fantastic class (having
taken it myself several years ago), great for brushing up on your anatomy
but also to learn it formally if you haven't already. I can't speak highly
enough of the energy that Pamela brings to her teaching. She is retired and
only teaching this one semester class.. for those of you who missed being a
student of hers now is your chance to experience the enthusiasm and skill
first hand.

Check out the course schedule HERE

Judith Hoffberg passed away yesterday. Judith was a force to be
reckoned with in the book arts world..she will be profoundly missed as
will her famous newsletter/magazine Umbrella. Judith donated the
majority of her huge book collection to UC Santa Barbara's Art Library
which is incredibly fortunate to have this bequest.

Dear Friends,

  You are warmly invited to attend the celebration of Judy Hoffberg's
life on Sunday, Feb. 8, 2009 at 11 am, at the art gallery Track 16 in
Santa Monica's Bergamot Station  (directions at
http://www.track16.com./contact.php)

  Several members of the local art community will speak.

  An artist's book will be created in her memory, and deposited with
her papers at the University of California, Santa Barbara.  If you are
interested in creating a page, please use 8-1/2 x 11" paper.  Let your
inspiration be Judy's perpetual curiosity about anything to do with
libraries, books, and all kinds of art. The deadline is July 31, 2009.

  There was a very nice obituary in Wednesday's Los Angeles Times:
http://www.latimes.com/news/obituaries/la-me-judithhoffberg28-2009jan28,0,564891\
5.story

  A memorial fund, the proceeds of which will be donated to either the
Artists' Book Collection at University of California, Santa Barbara,
or Judy's Umbrelliana collection at University of California, San
Diego, is being established.

  Please forward to anyone who may be interested.

  We hope you will be able to attend.

  Amy Ciccone

Through April 19, there is an exhibit called "Tango with Cows: Book
Art of the Russian Avant-Garde" at the Getty Research Institute
Exhibition Gallery. More info:
http://www.getty.edu/art/exhibitions/tango_with_cows/ You can download
PDFs of some of the books at that link, and listen to some of the
poetry in Russian and English.

Loved the animated city and this Japanese artist's work is stunning. Are you

Another Japanese wonder!
