Comments from Visitors to the show:

“It has been a delight to examine and explore all the different ideas that come out of the subject of books. It is marvelous to see such an abundance of ideas – the artists have thought deeply and make the viewers also think twice.”

“Such a varied sense of involvement with many alternative ideas”

“Enjoy the interactive, intertexuality to the work. Fresh, musing and sensual – edging the private sphere into the public – a sensitive feminine dominant encounter.”

“An amazing variety of interpretation. Some very witty and inventive exploring the theme excellently.”

“This is the most interesting, exciting and WOW making exhibition I have had the pleasure of viewing AND the best I have seen in this gallery. I feel really inspired but know enough to recognize that inspiration is not enough without originality and talent. I look forward to visiting Dartington again this week for a second helping. Thank you everyone.”

"An exciting and inspiring exhibition. As a librarian, I would love to explore the possibility of linking up in some way to explore books further."

“I really enjoyed this particularly seeing how textile experts cope with the technicalities of making a book – quite apart from the stunning content.”

“So good I came twice – and the more I looked the deeper it got – splendid work with lots of inspiration. Please do it again!”
