Description
Summary:The London Centre for Book Arts (LCBA) www.londonbookarts.org is an artist-run studio providing education programmes for a wide community of users and access to resources for artists and designers. Its mission is to foster and promote book arts and artist-led publishing in the UK through collaboration, education, and by providing open-access to printing and bindery facilities. Established at Britannia Works, Fish Island (London E3) in October 2012, LCBA was founded and is run by artists Simon Goode and Ira Yonemura. We met them in 2015 and early 2016 to talk about their experiences over the last three years, current projects and future plans. They are an example of purposeful, pragmatic idealism.
