Launching an artist book

by michelle senior
10th May 2012

Myself and a printer friend have designed and printed a 'coffee-table' book containing work of a local artist. The artist has sadly passed away and we have created the book in partnership with his family.

We are hoping to now launch the book in the local WH Smith and Waterstone branches.

I was wondering if anyone has any experience in this field?

Were both not sure where to begin.

Any advice would be gratefully received.

Regards

Michelle

Have you read Ian Phillip's blog? He launched in a Waterstones just last month. You could try putting this in a personal message to him or asking it on the end of his last blog post. He might be able to offer some advice. It doesn't seem as if any of us know.
