Old Book, New Boards

Following our visit to paper maker extraordinaire Andrea Peterson in the fall (see our November blog post), we were eager to find opportunities to use her handmade papers in our conservation work. Of particular interest was her ABM binders board, which recycles phase box off-cuts to make a delightfully pulpy binders board that is reminiscent of boards used on books throughout the 16th through 19th centuries. Essentially a thick, dense sheet of handmade paper, Andrea’s ABM board is lightweight, alkaline, and comes in a variety of thicknesses that allow for a sympathetic pairing to an older text-block when a new case or binding is necessary.

Hesburgh Libraries recently acquired a c. 15th century manuscript on paper of theological works by Denys the Carthusian. While the manuscript itself dates to the 15th century, it arrived in a much later binding that had broken sewing and very thin detached boards covered in brittle marbled paper.

Though we prefer reattaching loose boards where possible, in this case it was determined that splitting or lifting the covering material from these very thin, irregular boards would cause damage. We therefore decided, in collaboration with the curator, that the marble paper covered boards would be retained loose with the manuscript in a cloth-covered clamshell box, and the manuscript would be mended, resewn, and given a new binding.

In the process of cleaning and mending the paper in preparation for resewing, a fragment of light blue paper was discovered adhered to one of the inner folios of the manuscript.

Though it is unclear why and when this paper fragment came to be attached to the manuscript, it is similar to the blue “sugar bag” paper found on many books from the 17th and 18th centuries. In constructing a new case for the manuscript, we used a thin (0.06”) piece of ABM board and covered it with Ruscombe Mills Sesley Sugar Bag handmade laid paper, which closely resembles the fragment of blue paper found inside the manuscript.

Although the new binding does not attempt to be a facsimile of any particular binding, the new case stabilizes the manuscript for use while echoing elements of the manuscript’s history with its thin, textured boards and light blue covering paper.

These cuties were made 2 weekends ago at Kaneland Community Fine Arts Festival @kanelandarts . These pulp paintings (made from flax and sisal) are titled “The Honest Truth” and “Little White Lie.” In Cherokee folklore, the chickadee's song was the one to be trusted and the one who delivered an honest message. In contrast, the titmouse was known as "the bird that lies." To tell the difference between the calls of the two birds was to be able to discern truth from lies. #donwidmerpaperarts #handmadepaper #pulppainting #birdart #folklore #cherokeestories https://www.instagram.com/p/CreBs6UJh7V/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“With These Hands (C-clamp),” recycled paper pulp with onion skins, 11x19x1", 2022

"With These Hands" is a series of cast paper sculptures of my late father's tools. It is a tribute to him and to all caregivers, who bring a full range of skills to their work either professionally or within their families and communities. The sculptures suggest stewardship and environmental responsibility through care and repair of the things we own. Making (somewhat) fragile relief sculptures of very durable tools, the project doesn't immortalize objects like stone or bronze sculptures would, yet it renders them and the people who use them visible in a new way, and facilitates a dialogue about the kinds of work that society relies on but may not value enough.

We’re slowly sorting out the paper and shelving similar materials together. Unpacking is taking a while, but we are making progress. One way or another, we’ll be ready for the open house on Saturday. #bookbinding #letterpress #bookarts #lotsofpaper #japanesepaper #decoratedpaper #handmadepaper #somuchpaper (at Big River Bindery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpvHxMRuNPf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Dans le cadre de l’exposition « Papelart », mes calligraphies et Sumie aussi sont exposés.

Donc, voilà, ce sont les calligraphies finies depuis les essayages 🖌

Mes calligraphies sont faites avec le papier japonais qui sont fabriqués en Kozo et Igusa 🌿

Puis, mes Sumie sont faites avec le papier en itadori (renouée du Japon de Nancy).

Je les ai réalisé en essayant les papiers et des matériels variés pour atteindre les belles calligraphies. C’était intéressant.

Cet exposition sera jusqu’au 2 octobre.

Venez voir l’art de papier et des œuvres magnifiques des autres artistes et artisans !

While we still have to finish a bit of printing and binding, @kerri.cushman and I are grateful for the opportunity to have worked intensely at @interoceanstudio. We were inspired by both Ray Tomasso’s collection of vintage signs and wood type. “Wayfinding” considers those circles of connection (kismet, fate, serendipity?) that might be ignored, or instead, embraced as signs to move forward. We thought a lot about those moments, working with @gazelle_n_goat and enjoying lunch with @genghiskern. #handmadepaper #seiqui #letterpress #woodtype (at Englewood, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChbDAucvv1N/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This summer I am using some of my free time to bind some books and make some paper. I really need to spend more time doing what I love from now on. Hope this post will be a good reminder for myself.
