flask ARTBOOK MULTIPLES and flask A4s

flask produces and distributes limited edition artbook multiples by contemporary artists and writers. The form and content of individual books develops through a process of experimentation and dialogue. For most of the artbook multiples the artist creates a part of the book itself. Examples of this would be Luanne Martineau’s needle felting of each cover for Freakout, Alison Bigg’s printing of etchings for each of lostfoundsound, Christine Walde’s building of glass sculptural components for Bride Machine and Jim Holyoak’s hand painting of each cover of his lettered edition of Book of Nineteen Nocturnes. In this way, although editions, each artbook multiple is also unique. Along with the artists themselves and flask’s own resources, experts in a number of fields contribute to the eventual outcome including; various forms of book binding and printing, offset, giclee, screen-printing, digital, lithography, etching, drawing, photography, collage, letterpress, and fabric arts.

In addition to working on these more complex artbook multiples we have recently released a series of smaller softcover artbooks in editions of 100. We are calling these the flaskA4s.
