Saturday, November 5, 2016, 4:00 - 6:00 p.m.

23 Sandy Gallery is pleased to present Pop-Up Now II, a juried exhibition of pop-up and movable artist books. Pop-up books captivate and excite the child in all of us. They come to life as three-dimensional works of art hidden inside the pages of a book. Pop-Up Now II showcases handmade artist books that pop-up, move, slide, twirl, whirl, and even light up. One of the best aspects of book art is the opportunity to push the definition of movable books and tackle deeper subjects. It’s easy to make a whiz-bang pop-up, but book artists are very adept at pushing further and rounding out the book with more context. We are thrilled that so many artists were inspired to make pop-up and movable books that tell a bigger story.

 Pop-Up Now II features the following artists: Charlene Asato, Angela Batchelor, Anita Bigelow, Mary Beth Boone, Ruth Bryant, Susan Collard, Jan Dove, Don Drake, Katie Nelson Harper, Patricia Heimerl, Kyra E. Hicks, Ed Hutchins, Diane Jacobs, Paul Johnson, Bryan Kring, Jihae Kwon, Mary Jeanne Linford, Susan Lowdermilk, Amy Lund, Kimberly Maher, Celeste Maia, Mary V. Marsh, Emily Martin, Dorothy McCuistion, Lise Melhorn-Boe, Cathryn Miller, Bettina Pauly, Meryl Perloff, Dawn Peterson, Katie Preston, Camille Riner, Michelle Segal, Judy Sgantas, Krista Sharp, Carolyn Shattuck, Stephen Sidelinger, Lynn Skordal, Marilyn Stablein, Carmen Tostado, Elsi Vassdal Ellis, Zoe Waller, Thomas Parker Williams and Dorothy A Yule.
