Sans Niveau ni Metre, Pli Selon Pli: Leporellos d'artistes, #63, with Simon Cutts, Universite Rennes 2, Rennes, France, 2023


Sans Niveau ni Metre is the house organ for the artists' book collection at the University of Rennes 2 and different issues serve as catalogues for the exhibitions & special projects curated from the University's archive and its partners.

This special leporello issue is a catalogue for an exhibition that myself and Marie Boivent (University of Rennes) co-curated with a combination of leporellos from the University's artists' book collection and some from my collection. One side of the catalogue is taken up with a text by us around the theme of the show as well exploring the varied issues related to the leporello format using examples from the show. While on the other side is a page work commissioned from Simon Cutts the longtime Brit publisher who with his partner Erica Van Horn run Coracle Press out of Ireland. His piece reflects upon the leporello and its own method of transmission and communication.

4 double-sided pages, individually 11.75" x 8.5", and when unfolded 2ft 10"
