Julie Chen<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Julie Chen creates and publishes many sculptural, limited-edition artist’s books at her Flying Fish Press in Berkeley, California. She teaches bookmaking workshops around the country and is on the faculty at Mills College where she also received her MA in Book Arts. Flying Fish Press, established by Chen in 1987, is dedicated to the design and production of books that combine the quality and craftsmanship of traditional letterpress printing with the innovation and visual excitement of contemporary non-traditional book structures and modern typography. There is an emphasis on book structures that can function both traditionally as books and sculpturally as objects for display. Editions range in size from 10-150 copies. While Chen is currently focusing solely on the publication of her own artists’ books, the press has had a rich history of producing collaborative projects with other noted visual artists such as Nance O\u2019Banion and Lois Morrison.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
