Priscillia Leal Torres, Director of éditions Leal Torres in France, will give a presentation about her work creating exceptional limited edition works. Her artist's books are artistic, poetic, and literary experiences that allow words and images to echo one another in conversation in breathtaking works of visual art and artisanry. Her presentation will be followed by a display of work for attendees to engage with at the end of the presentation which will include a fascinating video of her latest publication.
The éditions Leal Torres creates limited edition books which are connected to the livre d’artiste tradition developed in France during the late 19th and 20th centuries, however Priscillia Leal Torres takes her productions in new contemporary directions, often collaborating with the Atelier du Livre d’art et de l’Estampe de l’Imprimerie Nationale.
