Hello all,

Chantal and Paul Leibenguth from the association Am'Arts are  
organizing their 4th Biennale on Artist Book and Book Art.

Below you will find some info, if you wish to learn more about it or  
if you wish to participate, feel free to email me (I will be their  
translator !)

Best Regards,

Sophie Blachet

----------

If you wish to participate to the 4th Biennale of Artist’s books and  
Book Art, « Délires de Livres » organized in spring 2011, you must  
send your pre-registration form first. This first step will help us  
quantify how many artists wish to exhibit, moreover it will give you  
time before sending your definitive registration form and fees.

For each Biennale, we prefer the artist to respect a theme, for 2011  
it will be:



Blue, Black and/or White

(All combinations of those colors are accepted)



Some information on the association and Biennale:

-         Am-Arts has been founded and is composed by Chantal et Paul  
Leibenguth. She has little subsidies in order to be free regarding  
the choices. We are not professional organizers but we are doing our  
best to present a high quality Biennale. Of course, we care about the  
artists, so feel free to contact us with any questions that you may  
have.

-         We are accepting non-pro artists and we are offering to the  
foundation and association of handicapped person to participate to  
the Biennale.

-         The definitive registration plus the Biennale’s rules,  
including the exact date, will be sent beginning of 2010.

-         Fees are 35 € (to be paid when you will send your  
definitive registration).

-         The association Am-Arts can refuse any entry because 1) a  
piece will not be a book art or artist’s book, 2) the artist does not  
respect the theme, 3) the pieces will have been created before 2009,  
4) the ones we feel to fragile or of bad quality, or 5) the ones to  
close to sculpture.

-         A maximum of 3 books can be exhibited.

-         A catalogue will be published and offered to each artist.

-         The shipping fees, taxes and customs, both ways, will be at  
the charge of the artist.

-         Possibility to hang a maximum of 10 pieces.
