About the Workshop:

This in-person class at Center for Book Arts is taught by instructor Ana Cordeiro.

Building on the skills from Bookbinding IV, this workshop will review sewing while controlling the book swell for rounding the spine. We will then build on our headband previous experience by sewing a double core French headband, and prepare our text blocks for inboard covers. Special attention will be given to pairing the leather, and to all the steps leading to building a half-bound leather book (leather spine and corners).


Required Materials:

  • Pencil and paper for taking notes
  • Snap-off or Exacto knife and blades
  • Bonefolder

All other materials will be provided by Center for Book Arts at no additional cost


About Ana Cordeiro

Ana Paula Cordeiro is a Brazilian national, New York City -based visual artist working primarily in the book form. The co-author of a book about making books called Bookforms, she has also co-organized the multi-media installation Introspective Collective at The Clemente. She was awarded a grant from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation and an Honorable Mention at the International Human Rights Arts Festival Creators of Justice Award for her essay “Citizen”. In the fall of 2023 she accepted the Dean’s Graduate Scholarship for the Arts at the Gallatin School of Individualized Study at NYU.

Artist books can be a solitary practice, but as the Introspective Collective manifesto states, no artist is an island. Ana Paula thrives in the shared space, having been a part of the Center for Book Arts communal shop for her entire career. She was a resident at the LMCC Arts Center in Governors Island and a research fellow at Hispanic Society Museum and Library, which became her sponsor for a regrant by NYSCA. Ana Paula has an extensive exhibition history, and her artist books are collected privately and institutionally.

FAVORITE
Goes on silky smooth, it's a joy. Not greasy, not clammy or sticky. Moisturizes great. I don't know why it's getting harder to find. I hope they keep making it

Light yet very moisturizing
I really like this lotion — it’s light yet still moisturizing, very similar to the discontinued Cream Oil that I used to absolutely love. I would’ve given it five stars if it had come in the pump bottle shown in the description, which I definitely would have preferred.

Soothing Post-Laser!! Ideal for Aging Skin ~
I just had my first CO2 Laser treatment and once you get past the required use of occlusives (Aquaphor, Doctor Rogers Healing Balm, Vaseline etc.), I was searching for something lighter that allowed my skin to breath yet soothed the dry, itching discomfort. La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Gel was the answer! After laser treatment, you can experience discomfort for up to 10 days. This gel is super lightweight, spreads easily and is not greasy. A small amount easily covered my face and neck. I like the fact that it is fragrance free - I experienced zero irritation. I found the product extremely soothing and really sped up my recovery with dryness and itchiness. This product was more effective than the lotion I was given my the laser specialist! I already use La Roche-Posay facial cleanser and love it. I am adding this product to my skin care regimen even after my laser recovery is complete. Ideal if you are looking for an effective moisturizer that is lightweight and really works on dry/irritated skin.
