Information
Barry returns to the Guild to talk about the revival of the craft of hand bookbinding: from the stunning bindings of the Arts and Crafts period through to modern examples created some 150 years later. It is also a personal journey for Barry as he researched two bookbinders living in Chorlton, south Manchester, in the early 1900s through to his commissioning of a modern design binding for a book he co-authored on the Arts and Crafts movement in Manchester. This well-illustrated talk will explore beautiful hand bound books either made locally or held locally in public collections.
