The Flag Book, as I now call it, is a simple accordion and has interlocking pages oriented in opposite directions. Little did I know that this simple structure would have legs and be the catalyst for the next forty–plus years of thinking about and making books.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe common perception of the book today is fairly straightforward: a series of pages organized around a spine and protected on either side by two covers. This format allows for easy access, storage and retrieval of information. Yet what happens when the book is stripped away of centuries of preconceptions and is allowed to reveal something else: playfulness, utility, invention? Expanding the notion of the book is what the structures in the following chapters of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eThe Art of the Fold\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e attempt to do. Exploring its tactile, sculptural form, primarily through folding methods, the book as a structural object is celebrated while content is considered in a new and unconventional way.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMy range in this medium has always been broad. In part this is due to my introduction to the world of bookbinding and some chance encounters. In the 1970s in New York City, the art and craft of hand bookbinding and papermaking were experiencing an unprecedented revival. I was fortunate to arrive in the city at just this moment. With an art–school background and an impulse to make things, I was naturally drawn to pursue this new opportunity. The Center for Book Arts, the famous forerunner of so many centers yet to come, was located in a small storefront just down the street from where I lived on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Under the direction of founder Richard Minsky, it had a radical mission: to push concept, materials, printing and making of artist books in a new direction. When Richard dared me to teach at the Center one evening a week, I was hooked.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMy career as a book conservator and a book artist has now spanned over 45 years. As head conservator at the American Philosophical Society in Philadelphia, I've had the opportunity to handle some of the rarest volumes and manuscripts in the world. I have also dealt with decrepit books, torn maps and countless curiosities discovered in stacks and archives. All were endless sources for ideas and provided a springboard for a departure from tradition. Leading book–arts workshops around the world and a 25 year tenure teaching in the graduate program for Book Arts and Printmaking at the University of the Arts in Philadelphia have shown me, in retrospect, that the more I taught, the more it propelled me to experiment and develop my ideas. The many students I have had over the years were always my biggest inspiration, and they continue to be so.' – \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eHedi Kyle, Pine Hill, NY Sept 2017\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"House of Joy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46945780924591,"sku":null,"price":27.5,"currency_code":"JOD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/5662\/8655\/files\/9781786272935-600x770.jpg?v=1781018689"},{"product_id":"the-science-of-the-earth","title":"The Science of the Earth","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eElegant design combined with beautiful images to explore and explain Earth's natural riches.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is an informative, visually arresting introduction to planet Earth.

I wish it to be an undeniable record that Palestine was not a cultural desert. It was and remains a fertile oasis of creativity and expression.
