 How
an Artists' Book Gets Published
The artists' books we publish do not easily fit
into any one category.
This is due in part to our selection process.
In the spirit of open participation to all, we
invite artists interested in producing a book
to submit a proposal.
All submitted books are considered, and the selection
is made by a rotating jury of practicing book
artists. The jury changes annually, and always
includes at least one artist who has previously
been awarded a WSW Artist-In-Residence Grant.
An open and fair selection process continues to
be the most vital element in implementing our
book arts grants. This democratic process has
resulted in a wonderful and varied collection.
Some artists work at WSW for up to six weeks
creating a limited edition artists' book, while
others produce editions in their home studios.
We would like to congratulate all the artists
who have worked with us over the years, producing
some of the most original and exciting books
in the field.
