Redesigning the Medieval Book

The Bodleian Library and Faculty of English are running a workshop, competition and exhibition for contemporary artists and craftspeople who work with books: Redesigning the Medieval Book. The aim is for contemporary artists and craftspeople to make new books inspired by medieval ones in an exhibition at the Bodleian, curated by Daniel Wakelin, Jeremy Griffiths Professor of Medieval English Palaeography.
