About the artists

Judy Anderson

Judy Anderson works with a variety of materials and processes to create organic abstract images that are combined to form one-of-a-kind sculptural books. The focus is always on process—to produce a large body of work responding to a particular idea without being limited by set expectations of the finished product.
Treating books as an art form is a natural expression for Judy because of her love of paper, paper forms, words, ink, images and narrative. The first book she made was in the mid-70s and it opened a world of possibilities leading into an open-ended lifelong exploration of layered storytelling. She embraces collaboration and has worked closely with poets, sculptors, printmakers and bookbinders. Her professional life has always been deeply rooted in guiding and encouraging younger artists. She was a Professor of Design for three decades at universities in California, Colorado and Washington. In 2016 she received the Denver Art Museum Gold Key Award given to an exemplary artist who has made significant contributions to contemporary art in Colorado. She is the founding director of PlatteForum in 2002, an award-winning arts and youth serving organization. Her artist books are in collections around the world including the Museum of Modern Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Victoria and Albert Museum, Getty Research Institute, Frankfurt Book Fair Archival Collection and universities throughout the country.

Ginny Hoyle

Ginny Hoyle’s poetry has appeared in MARGIE, Copper Nickel, Wazee Journal, Pilgrimage, Tygerburning and other journals. She works with artist Judy Anderson to create freeform books and installations that meld language and art.

She spent most of her career creating brochures, websites and other marketing tools for a wide range of clients, partnering with Asher Design and other graphic design firms. Earlier, she was staff writer for the International Reading Association, spent several years at Denver’s Channel 9 and three years in Louisiana that yielded two good things—newspaper experience and the birth of her daughter (also a writer). At Penn State (BS, Journalism and Consumer Services) she edited the college monthly and did an internship with Scholastic Magazines in NYC.

She lives in Denver where she volunteers at Plains Conservation Center and the Denver Museum of Nature and Science (Earth Sciences Collections) and leads a haiku workshop offered through Denver’s Academy for Lifelong Learning.
