The UNT Libraries' Artists Book Competition and Biennial Exhibition, which will run through June 13 at Willis Library, attracted 36 entries -- the most since the first competition 12 years ago.
The first-place winners were a booklet accordion, pictured, from Yuri Hiratsuka, a professional artist in Oregon, and a limestone book from Kai Peter Martin, a graduate student in the painting and drawing program.
The Purchase Prize went to Heavens by Adam Rowlett, a graduate art student.
His book will be permanently displayed at the Judge Sarah T. Hughes Reading Room in Willis Library.
