Léonie Guyer's conclave Exhibition Book

Artist Book Design

Fall 2023

GRL GRP


GRL GRP worked with Staircase Gallery in San Francisco, CA to design a book for an exhibition of Léonie Guyer’s work entitled, ‘conclave.’ According to Staircase, “Léonie Guyer makes paintings, drawings, site-based work, and books. Her work is characterized by idiosyncratic shapes that are situated in a variety of spaces.” 

The layout of the book, as wel as the typesetting, aim to reflect Guyer’s use of space in her work. The size (5.375 x 10.625 in.) and orientation of the book is a knod to the gallery’s physical space of a single staircase. It is bound with paper fastener brads and was printed and bound by Coast Litho in Oakland, CA.
