Onto A Good Thing: The Goldsmiths Prize 2020 Shortlist

We are delighted that Mr. Beethoven has been shortlisted for the prestigious Goldsmiths Prize! Thank you for helping us make this happen with your early financial support.

What happens now?

While followers of the Prize are reading their way through the shortlist we (as forecast) will escort you from the Grand Tier and behind the scenes at our bindery so you can see your books as they are made. For a start, we just built a new workshop to house our nineteenth century BOARD SHEAR, cast in Leipzig. Essentially it's a 300kg pair of scissors for cutting book boards. For the first time all our equipment is in one location!

We are also selecting images from Paul Griffiths' research. These will be printed on our Giclee printer and sewn into the sections; a book within the book. The dummy version is the next thing you will see. You can see three of these images in the video that comes with this update, which includes a reading by Paul Griffiths.

All best wishes,

David and Ping Henningham
