Book Publishing

Art is like poetry.  It seeps in slowly, connecting us to bigger ideas, pushing us into a space of contemplation and imagination.  This space is the place where artists thrive; a place all art students can discover.  This project explores the possibilities of publishing a book of student poetry and illustrations.  The illustrations are inspired by the poetry, but the deeper connection is a subject relevant to your school’s community that students are passionate about.  In publishing a book, students’ perspectives of an issue are shared to their community and beyond, so their voices and visions are known.

By definition, Contemporary Art is the art of today, produced by artists who are living in the twenty-first century. It provides an opportunity to reflect on contemporary society and the issues relevant to ourselves, and the world around us.  This project is about capturing those reflections from students about issues relevant to them and publishing their work in a book that can be shown to anyone.
