February Bombing

Book Bombs will be out tonight in Christ Church Park and Washington Square, as scheduled, in the snow distributing Print #2. Since we're expecting inches upon inches of snow in the coming hours, we'll save some for after the storm. Stay tuned for the date of more print drops...and maybe you'll find some prints in some more sheltered locations.

Also consider dropping by the Democratic Multiples show in Gallery 224 at the University of the Arts, 321 South Broad, opening 5:30-7:30 tonight, for a Book Bombs handout, and take a peek at our installation in the Window on Broad at street level. Mary has additional work in the Democratic Multiples exhibit, and Michelle has work in We and Stories, same time, same address, 6th floor Print gallery.

More photos coming soon.....

Book Bombs at Moore and the Window on Broad

Book Bombs had a crazy and sleep-deprived start to their week yesterday with bombing installations at both the Rosenwald-Wolf Gallery's Window on Broad and the Moore Art Shop.




For any of you who will be attending the Gala Opening of PHILAGRAFIKA 2010, please check out our bombing of the Moore Art Shop. And keep your eyes peeled for our second print drop coming the first week of February!



The Window on Broad is located at 333 South Broad Street, near the intersection of South Broad and Pine in Center City. The Moore Art Shop is located at 20th Street and the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, near the intersection of 20th and Race.

Gaining Momentum

Book Bombs continues to gain momentum. This week, watch for our installation in the Window on Broad, our bombing of the Moore Art Shop (thanks to Katie Van Vliet) and our upcoming second print drop.


The following weekend is the opening of PHILAGRAFIKA 2010, the international festival celebrating print in contemporary art of which Book Bombs is a part. To learn about other events, activities, and the opening weekend festivities, please visit here.

BIGA$$ PAPER!!!

This past weekend, at an undisclosed Philadelphia location, Book Bombs poured the approximately 8' x 3' sheet of paper for our upcoming installation in Rosenwald-Wolf Gallery's Window on Broad. Below are examples of the fibers when wet and dry.



We will be installing in the Window next week -- check back here for images. The Window is located at 333 South Broad Street in Center City, Philadelphia, at the University of the Arts. And don't forget to keep your eyes peeled the first week of February for the next installment in our series of public prints!

As a final note, Book Bombs extends its thanks and appreciation to the magnificent Lori Spencer, who invited us to exhibit in the Window. Thanks so much for thinking of us.
