EXHIBITION - Zagreb, CROATIA 'When Dragons Awake' Artist: Aline Dalgleish Event Dates: May 4th until May 16th, 2021. Opening Hours: Tues to Sun - 11 am - 7 pm Location: Klovićevi Dvori Gallery Jezuitski Trg 4 10000 Zagreb More Information: What happens when dragons, sleeping under the earth, stir and shake it to destruction? When the artist, born under the sign of the dragon, is unsettled out of her wits by the forces of life unchained? When little dragons, lost and deprived, are desperate to make sense of their world? They fly, they rage, they soar. But hopefully, if allowed or helped to gain height, they change perspective, calm down, channel the energy and transform it. Facing the fire within is one of the most liberating experiences that can be. “When Dragons Awake” is much more than an exhibition. Presenting the paper works and light sculptures of Aline Dalgleish, it is a retrospective of the artist’s time in Croatia but it is also a charity project designed to raise funds for the benefit of the Association Mali Zmaj (Little Dragons) to be allocated to the development of their art therapy, creative workshops and mental well-being programmes for children in need. Along with collecting funds via ongoing events throughout the exhibition, five of the exhibited artworks will to be sold at auction. A chance for the artist to say goodbye to Croatia, and Thank You. “When life gets disrupted I know first-hand the solace, and the power, that art and creativity can bring. All the artworks presented here have a story of a search for meaning, or for peace, or for beauty, connected to events that needed to be faced.” Aline Dalgleish, Zagreb May 2021 Further information: Klovićevi Dvori Gallery www.alinedalgleish.com #whendragonsawake #paperart #paper #paperexhibition #iapmamember @alinedagleish

The IAPMA menbers Bara Lehmann-Schulz and Kathrin Biffi-Frey have been using Paper for many years, to express and shape objects, images and installations. In 2005 – 2013 they created temporary installations in the Maggia river bed, in Swiss Tessin, using Paper and a few aids. This experimental work within a landscape shaped by glacial erosion used paper, light, and the weather, as well as standing and flowing water, and has characterised this project. It is these simultaneously transient and eternal, soft and hard, static and moving elements that make their work so fascinating.

The book is available via book stores or from the authors (according to prior agreement)

Exposé WATER STONE PAPER

No glue. No cables. No steel reinforcements. The only thing keeping this bridge intact is, well, physics.
If you happened to be strolling across the Grisedale Valley—a ridiculously picturesque piece of land in Cumbria—over the past two weeks, you probably saw what looks like something out of a Monument Valley fever dream. A blindingly bright red bridge spanning a thin creek, made of nothing except thousands of sheets of paper. About 22,000 sheets, according to The Chronicle.
It’s called PaperBridge, and it’s the work of a UK artist named Steve Messam, who was commissioned by the area’s culture council to install it this spring.

In this cultural history of paper, acclaimed paper artist Therese Weber travels to the few remaining places where traditional methods of papermaking have been preserved. Commencing there Weber takes the reader on a fascinating and colourful journey of discovery of a commodity that many may take for granted, but few fully understand.

The language of paper

The Tallinn City Archives have a voluminous collection of limp bindings in long-stitch, chain-stitch and tacketing. This technique was used mainly when binding simple bands for daily use, such as registers, accounts and notes but has also occurred in more important works. In the book, "Limp Bindings from Tallinn", eight of the bands are presented together with thorough technical descriptions. Hopefully, you will be inspired to develop new variations.
The book, in offset print, is printed in 600 copies on Multidesign Original white 150-gram paper and has a protective cover in Curious Touch, 250 grams. The design of the 48-page book is inspired by medieval writings and is illustrated by artist Jordi Arkö.
The book can be ordered by my mail monica@langwe.se I will then give instruction how to pay via PayPal.
The price of the book is $ 50 including postage, any import fees will be paid by the customer.
