Bookbinding Magnum Style


 
'Postcards From America' boxed series


We are delighted to announce that a student from the BA (Hons) Contemporary Photography course has been invited to join the Magnum Book Making Masterclass, an event organised by the global photography agency Magnum. Drawing on the initiative she created during a module on her course, Hayley Andrew secured a place at the event creating a book making workshop for photographers. This workshop is a prestigious event, and Hayley was employed to bring her knowledge of editing, design, book production and distribution to the workshop which ran over two day and then culminated in a symposium.

Hayley was part of a team which included the following professionals: Stuart Smith, Gordon MacDonald (GOST publishing), Harry Hardie of Here Press, Philipp Ebling of Fishbar and Magnum photographers David AlanHarvey and Susan Meiselas. The event was coordinated by Fiona Rodgers atMagnum.

Richard Mulhearn, course leader for BA (Hons) Contemporary Photography said, 'This is one of the successes of the course; that as result of encouraging professional collaboration whist on the programme, students learn what is required, they make mistakes, but these are what facilitate resilience and progression.'
