Some of the sets of bookmarks made by participants in the
Bookmarks VII Project, Escaping the Library System. "The Bookmarks projects series aim is to encourage appreciation of work in the format of the artist's book. Participating artists each hand-produce an edition of 100 signed and numbered bookmarks to give away through distribution boxes at venues around the world. Each bookmark has the website address which brings visitors to the gallery of artworks online." Read more about it on
bibliobuffet.
