Movable Magic
a talk by Paul Johnson
7-9pm at University of Washington Libraries
Maps/Special Collections Classroom
Allen Library North Basement

Watch Paul Johnson pull a library's worth of pop-up books from a suitcase.
He'll talk about the endless power of the book as an aesthetic,
architectural form and its special fascination for children of all ages.
Everyone will make a miniature pop-up book to take away.

Paul Johnson is internationally recognized for his pioneering work in
developing literacy through the book arts and as a book and paper artist.
Author of A Book of One's Own, Literacy Through the Book Arts, and Words
and Pictures Together, he ran the Book Art Project from Manchester
Metropolitan University from 1986 to 1997. His work is in the collections
of the Cooper-Hewett Museum in New York, the National Gallery, the Library
of Congress, the University of California at Berkeley and Yale University,
among other institutions. He exhibits widely and is on the UK Craft
Council's select list of British craftspeople.

The Maps/Special Collections classroom can be reached by taking the
elevators in the North Lobby of the Allen Library {where the crows hang
above your head} to the basement. When you exit the elevator turn to your
right and start down the hallway. A quarter of the way down the hall the
classroom entrance will be on your right.
