Piano Lessons - short film

This short film shows the concept, working methods and finished book Piano Lessons.
This film was made specifically for the BABE Lost Weekend artist book Fair 17-18 April 2021 in Bristol, UK. 





Bristol Artist’s Book Event 2021
With restrictions due to Covid, we are hosting a ‘lost weekend’ version of BABE over the weekend of 17 – 18 April 2021 as an interim BABE in the run up to our usual larger event which we now plan to hold at Arnolfini in 2022.

For 2021, we will be showcasing videos made by artists about their books in Australia, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Japan, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Russia, Sweden, the UK and USA. These will be shown online and in the auditorium. Arnolfini will showcase selected artists’ books in the reading room, host public workshops, interventions and pop-ups. Our aim is for the public to be able to visit over the weekend. We’ll also be organising some participatory events online so watch this space and check out Arnolfini’s website in April.
