PACBI x Burley Fisher Books
Joining with many writers, publishers and bookshops, Burley Fisher Books is signing on to the call of the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI). This means boycotting academic and cultural institutions funded by the Israeli state, and any cultural activity funded by the Israeli state.
Burley Fisher Community Press
Thanks to a grant from the arts council, we are now offering an affordable risograph printing service at the bookshop.
A quick explainer, provided by the good folks at Risotto Studio:
It looks like a photocopier, but works as a screenprinter; using rich spot colours and stencils to create tactile and vibrant prints, affordably and with little impact to our environment.
Risograph printing has been used for high-volume printing in places like schools & political parties for many years, but over the past decade, it has undergone a resurgence with creatives adopting the process because of its tactile and unique results!
The RISO was designed to be a duplicator, with most of the work and cost in the artwork's set-up. So the more you print, the more economical the price becomes per print.
We will be running introductory workshops for those new to the process on how to design posters and zines to take best advantage from this unique printing process.
