RCBz




Unique artists book holding digital prints, envelopes and correspondence from RCBz.  
RCBz and I have maintained a long an interesting Mail Art exchange.  His generosity in sharing his digital prints is not generally appreciated as I don’t think many artists have as wide and varied a collection as I.  












We have often written about some sort of binding mechanism to keep these prints together as I am very loathe to perforate them.  I think many people are also not aware that he only makes one print of his digital collages.  


Each print is tailor made for its recipient.   This involves copious time and effort. 
The (current) answer is to collate the prints in a folder which opens out into an accordion book.  Two sets of prints - Rorschack Mitty looked the White Elephant straight in the Mouth and the amazing Fin Series - see http://cherylpenn.com/wpb/?p=4147
will be wire bound as both these editions were intended for a book-type end, including  - TICTAC’s Zine in a Box project.  

For the Mona Lisa Series see link below - those fabulous postcards and their history were included in An Encyclopedia of Everything.





Within the folder I have included various emails and correspondence between RCBz and myself.  They stand as some sort of historical account of his work as he seems to be in the habit of deleting - blogs in particular.
