Thank you

The best of all booksWelcome to the Fourth Doverodde Book Arts Festival Since the Book Arts Center was founded at the Limfjordscenter in 2009 the festival has become a keenly anticipated fixture in the international book arts calendar This year the event is organized by award-winning book artist Mette-Sofie D Ambeck with support from Liz Hempel-Joslashrgensen Karin Nikolaus and a dedicated team of volunteers

The theme of this yearrsquos festival is lsquoOn the marginsrsquo (in Danish lsquoUdkantrsquo) The nineteenth-century American artist William Morris Hunt described the margins as lsquothe best part of all booksrsquo saying that a blank margin has lsquothe soothing influence of a clear sky in a landscapersquo The association between the borders of the page and the land is especially apposite in Doverodde a place separated from the mainland by the waters of the Limfjord The festival draws book artists and book lovers from around the world to this peaceful harbour village at the edge of Europe For one weekend a marginal space becomes a medial point where we can experience a wide range of contemporary book arts inventive examples of illustration and typography altered books and mail art and works demonstrating traditional papermaking bookbinding and printmaking techniques

Visitors can meet the makers and browse their books in the Pakhus or see an installation of prayers and greetings by Anita Pedersen and Gunnar Stefansson in the Tower Artist-led workshops will give everyone an opportunity to try their hand at book and paper crafts by creating concertina books tunnel books and pop-ups Japanese kirigami cards and Danish woven paper hearts The Limfjordcenter provides something for all the senses with musical performances by the trio lsquoMusic in a Gardenrsquo from Kassel Germany and local group lsquoDover Djazzrsquo ndash not to mention the aroma of cakes and coffee coming from the book cafeacute

In addition to this exciting programme of events this year sees the first Book Arts Symposium a forum for formal discussion of the genre We welcome distinguished artists Maureen Piggins and Ewa Monika Zebrowski from Canada to give keynote addresses and look forward to the debates initiated by the speakers

The power of imaginations ndash On the margin of the mindIn my artwork I try to express the experience of being human and how we see ourselves and the world In this particular artwork I focus on the power of our imaginations With our collective and learned imaginations and thoughts about ourselves and about others we lock ourselves into cages of consciousness These confining collective and individual concepts and emotions lie on the margins of the mind At these margins we have only a little contact with our inner being which actually holds what we really possesshellipinfinite freedom joy and strength

I only want what I canrsquot haveThis personal book explores the way in which an image is made fragmented and lost both physically and mentally The ideas were formed around the recent death of my Mother and also the end of a personal relationship I wanted to capture the feeling of loss and the information we are left with when something ends There is a mix of images including images of roses from my Motherrsquos garden and the trees she could see from her sitting room window There are also images of a bullfight in Barcelona a spectacle that also has just ended

Flying Summer Flyvende SommerIs the poetic Danish expression for the way little spiders travel in late summer They begin by crawling out to the edge of a leaf for example and spinning a thin thread When it is long enough even the slightest breath of air is enough to catch it and lift the spider into the air to float away

As this has always been a metaphor for freedom courage and faith to me my book is an invitation to go to the edge and seek adventureshellip

TALLINN HISTORY MARGINALTallinn is an amazingly well-preserved city never destroyed The walls date from the Middle Ages and the towers and belfries are well-restored gemshellip Yet suddenly around a corner behind a junction box a different language traces of a marginal existence secretive revealing itself sparingly Is it an appeal from those who donrsquot recognise themselves in this city a questioning of the established order Or is it quite simply life

Under the Skies of AhmedabadWhilst preparing for a residency in Ahmedabad India I began to familiarize myself with the location and the city by viewing and exploring the city through satellite images from Google Earth

Google Earth offers views of cities and streets in great detail they appear tantalizingly close and yet the experience is strangely alienating What I became interested in were images beyond the map at the margin images that reveal how it feels to live in the city the emotional experiences that make up the ritual of the everyday This is a different kind of map not lsquorealityrsquo modeled on spatial information but on lived experience of space and place

TERRAINS VAGUESOn the margins of a town you find lsquoTerrains Vaguesrsquo a sort of no-mans land without any rules or structureThe Danish composer Per Noslashrgaringrd has written a piece of music called Terrains Vagues which is the inspiration for my book I hear the music as the place where all forces of mankind are expressed in true extremes I hear a tremendous horror but also an inherent poetic powerMankind represents devastation disasters and dissonance but hardworking inventiveness and enterprise tooI hear setback step backwards and forwards I also hear beauty and hope rising to the sky

UtkantslivUtkantsliv (Swedish for life on the outskirts or life on the margins) is an exploration of an unknown entity for me in my home town of Stockholm ndash a place now strangely unfamiliar to me after years abroadI started discovering these anonymous areas on the outskirts of the city mainly just houseshousing blocks sprung up in close proximity to public transport I got very interested in these lsquohinterlandsrsquo their strange careless mix of nature and industrial elementsThis book is the result of walks through one of these areas The photographs are purposefully anonymous and up-close void of people and wider context a highly personal view and examination of somewhere strangely impersonal and interchangeable

Tycorsquos UniverseThe theme Udkant On the margins suggests the idea that scientists like artists are often outside the mainstream of society My book is a tribute to the Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe and his groundbreaking planetary observations I used his drawings to create borders (margins) of geometric patterns found both in science and abstract art The repetition of the circles reinforces the idea of planets The use of silver comes from Tycho Brahersquos interest in alchemy and from his artificial nose My book includes elements of assemblage based on artists such as Max Ernst and Joseph Cornell

This writing was obtained via The Whitworth Art Gallery in Manchester UK along with two reproduced maps drawn by the mysterious lsquoMichael The Cartographerrsquo This is the only information the gallery have about the artist My book piece tells the story of Michael illustrating his beautiful maps through my own hand illuminating his enigmatic life

HiddenHidden is an artistsrsquo book created by Marianne Laimer in 2012 The book is designed as a game to entice the viewer to stop find and explore the hidden Hide and seek masks a deeper meaning where the game turns into something more serious Who exactly is hiding out in the margins of the fictional community room As in previous Laimer book works there are shadow-motifs and subtle references to other literatureThe material used is 160g Fabriano Tiziano paper flax for sewing and a minimal amount of glue has been used for mounting The motifs are cut by hand

Single Ward FeaturesFloating like lonely Islands the separated wards of the town where I was born are the content of the first chapter of this book

Using poetic language found in the appropriated text of an official government document I have loosely bound together a fractured representation of this single place

Exploring the beauty of cartography and language and the crossover between authenticity and ambiguity

In fragmenting these factual details I hope to create a canvas for the imagination

Udkant 1 is a book that looks like a book but isnrsquot a book but contains a book that was once a book but no longer a useable book with content It raises the question where do we draw the margin

FRIEND a fantastic and grim storyHere are grim tales from the margins of life and the outskirts of existence Wild and intense yet also heartfelt calm and gentle

After years of focusing on textural and non-figurative expressions the urge to draw has returned and completely taken over The smallest excuse and it pours out of my drawing pen long-limbed royal sons and daughters mermaids with unruly hair brutal killers falling angels eight-legged horses women giving birth blood sweat and tears Really I have no idea where it is all coming from

On the marginWhere decay initiates new growth ndash Where change shows more reluctantly ndash Where fruit grows for everyone ndash Where invisible eyes follow you ndash Where something new keeps appearing ndash Where thoughts hover in the air ndash Where no flags mark property ndash Where the eye cannot be detained ndash Where striving is searching ndash Where straight lines have no place ndash Where paths get lost ndash Where the clouds drift lower ndash Where birds form spirals in the air ndash

Where you feel at homebecause here you can lose yourselfbecause here you can find yourself

I livets udkant On the margins of lifeThe idea for the book lsquoI livets udkantrsquo came to me when I found two wooden figures from Greenland in a second-hand shop The figures represent two Greenlanders Greenlanders live on the margin of the Danish Realm and live north of the Arctic Circle in the border country of possible existence on Earth The figures also represent an old man and woman who are at the margins of life ndash on the threshold of death But old people often hold great insight into life The Greenlanders wisdom of life is often linked to Nature which can crush a man at any time

The texts in this book comes from Knud Rasmussenrsquos collected descriptions of the Greenlanders The Greenlandic artist Hans Alaufesen Aasiaat (1922-1982) carved the wooden figures My uncle Bendt Olsen made the Tupilaqs The watercolours and layout of the book are by me Anita Pedersen

This year I have only thought of form with edges facing outwards The book is inspired by the way bees build and their struggle for existence ndash like the way the outskirts often have to fight for their place Therefore my contribution this year became a bound book with 6 margins no centre and completely without text only pure margins and a spine facing downward

Geschlossene Gesellschaft Private partyEvery society is a mix-up of many different groups and individuals To develop and fulfil evolution it needs a range of differences we have to see that both nationally and globally

Exclusion of special individuals people groups ndash the refusing of human achievements will always lead to problems and war

Segregation takes place gradually and we all have to be alert to the first signs of marginalization

LandlockedLandlocked latterly refers to the remote place you inhabit in coming to terms with lossThe images were spontaneous in trying to find my friend I found myself- dressing in his clothes wearing his glasses Introspection Seeing the distorted world through his vision Grief is isolating no one wants to live there everyone around you wants you to move on but you remain at a standstill and no one really can come in

Formerly my friend was reclusive marginalised he flourished on pale pencil marks and intense notebooks Solitary needs in a big city he spoke little and then gently

ImpasseAs an adopted twin the process of taking or imagining images is synonymous with a process of self-representation and self-determination The image is a screen that protects and at the same time separates At some point beyond or before the image I aim but miss I am at the margin of a silence a blank slate rewriting a fiction that slides and disappears (The image slides against the plastic screen through which it was taken) I make and un-make myself at this point of non-penetration this impasse both defeating and sustaining constitutes an attempt to abreact an unrepresentable loss

In de marge on the marginLines and patterns have fascinated me for a long time I started manipulating calligraphic pens and all sorts of writing materials forming traces and structures with little details that carry the vulnerability of the moment This work-flow became my language the language in which I could express myselfIn this work I filled the margins and left out the centre the readable words The sometimes-fragile images and lines show what it can mean to live on the margin of Life

From Margin to CenterThrough the observation of the environment of the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple in Singapore this artistsrsquo book illustrates how the marginal (least important objects) is there to enhance the central image (Buddha) The viewpoint moves from level one to level five of the temple For instance on level one the margin is represented by the hundred dragons that encircled the hundred Buddhas enshrined on both sides of the hall The centre is the main Buddha Maitreya accompanied by his two attendant bodhisattvas Dharma Grove and Wondrous Appearance This artistsrsquo book is also to remind us that Buddhism moved from the margin to the centre during the Ming dynasty

CorridorThis book is about my experience living on the margin of the city defined by a river The river is dry during much of the year and violently flowing in others when the snow melts from the nearby mountains There are three themes that flow in the book the margins of society (homeless who live in the riverbed) the evidence of the controlling of rivers that feed the southwest and subsequent natural changes and margins of two countries Mexico and USA where the river flows from one to the other The book documents my walks through the margins of the river

Soslashren RygeThis year it is with great pleasure that we can introduce Soslashren Ryge as our opening speaker and Guest of Honour Ryge has had his own popular TV programme on DR (Danish Broadcasting Corporation) since 1988He has invited viewers to join him in his private garden over a hundred times to see the events and daily developments from dealing with chickens to tending the latest vegetable patch or nurturing a rose bush

The programmes have a gentle and intimate style both in how Ryge brings the viewer into his personal spaces and also in the shooting style as regular cameraman Egon has recorded the show on a single hand-held camera from the beginning In recent years Ryge has also developed another strong interest in his writing and special broadcasting projects investigating the ordinary people living in remote areas of Denmark His celebration of the ups and downs of daily life lsquoOn the marginsrsquo lsquoUdkantrsquo makes him a perfect choice to open our event this year as that is our theme

As an added treat our special guest will give a talk entitled lsquoHistorier fra Danmarkrsquo (Stories from Denmark) drawing on the stories he has discovered while working with the natural world and people going through Lifersquos everyday adventures

As before we are very grateful to all of the artists who have given their time and skills to participate in our events Because of them we now have an international Book Arts Festival which seems to grow each year

Special thanks to Norwegian Tommelise Haldrup Pettersen 2011 First Prize winner of the Doverodde Book Arts Center of Denmark Award for suggesting our 2012 theme UdkantSarah Bodman from The University of West England provided the translation On the margins Thanks to her for all her support

And while the Limfjordscentret may be situated on the margins of Denmark we have still gathered artists from around the world to participate in our latest new Festival venture the Artistsrsquo Books Anonymous On the margins SymposiumProminent artists have travelled to us from across the world to share their knowledge and art Thank you to our two Keynote speakers from Canada Maureen Piggins and Ewa Monika Zebrowski We are also glad to welcome American artists Doug Beube and Tatiana Ginsberg and Jesvin Yeo from Singapore Finally travelling from the UK are Sylvia Waltering and Lucy May SchofieldSuch an international list can only enlighten us to the global diversity and expertise in the field of book arts Additional thanks for helping select our Symposium candidates to the British panel Sarah Bodman Angie Butler Andrew Eason Linda Newington Mike Nicholson and Tom Sowden

Our other new experiment is the Writer-in-Residency project for which we were lucky to secure British poet and printmaker Nancy Campbell She has brought new life to Doverodde
