Portsmouth, UK 2014
Saddle-stitched zine made by Bookleteer
10 pages A6 landscape on white card.

Description:
Prints inspired by the life and work of comedian Tony Hancock as seen in the film 'The Rebel'
In 1991 I gained a First Class Degree in Painting at Canterbury College of Art, and after intervals in America and Japan I completed a Master’s Degree at Falmouth College of Art in Cornwall. It was at this point that I became interested in the relationship between words and images and began working within the book format. As well as exploring the inter-relationship between text and image, I was also interested in creating portable, accessible art that didn’t require a specific viewing context. (from website).

Description: "This issue is a tribute to my favorite structure for making artist's books and mini-zines: an eight-page book made fro a single sheet of paper. It goes by many names and has been written about in many places, hence its ubiquitous identitiy."
(from the introduction).

This zine celebrates the one page book including descriptions, instructions, research resources and bibliography. The included mini-zine is a foldy that includes instructions for making itself.
