The Illustrated Accordion exhibition focuses on books created in the accordion form. The structure of an accordion book is simple: a long piece of paper is folded into pages that can be read like a book or spread open and displayed like a banner. Featuring works of book artists from all over the world, the books in this exhibit take this book form to a new level. Every book that has been entered in previous Illustrated Accordion exhibits are available to view through our website.

Please Click on the images to see more information about the piece. If you are scrolling through the gallery please make sure to view Gallery 2, halfway down the page. After viewing Gallery 1 click on an image in Gallery two see the rest of the show The Gallery works best on a computer.
