In partnership with the Bookbinding Guilds of ACT & NSW,
The Sutton Village Gallery will present the unique exhibition of fine bindings titled
‘Reflections of a Philosophical Voyager’.
This exhibition will showcase 18 bookbinders from around Australia, highlighting the varied approaches to the text, comprising Nicolas Baudin’s 1802 letter written to Governor Philip King. The letter was reproduced by the State Library of South Australia in 2016 and is a fascinating account by the French navigator of the French laying claim to King Island.
The exhibition will run from 3-20 August, 2023, with the official launch taking place 1:30pm, 5 August.
All welcome.
