Hot Bed Press currently chooses an artist for its annual book arts residency from those exhibitors at the Manchester Artists’ Book Fair who are interested in the opportunity. The scheme is now in its fourth year and the choice of artist is rarely an easy one – a stroll round the fair in any year quickly shows how very wide the range of work is and how difficult it is to compare one approach to book arts with another. However, Hot Bed Press is primarily about print, so one of the main considerations is that the artist chosen should be someone who will be able to take advantage of – and whose work shows the potential to benefit from - access to a well-equipped printmaking workshop.
This year Kim Bevan has been chosen for the residency. She will receive six months of free access to the workshop and a free table at the 2014 Manchester Artists’ Book Fair. Kim has discussed possibilities for her time at Hot Bed Press with the Artistic Director and will start this spring. We hope she will enjoy her time with Hot Bed Press and we look forward to seeing the work that she develops during her residency.
