Chair, Graduate Media Design Program
Art Center College of Design
In addition to her role at Art Center, Anne Burdick is Design Editor of Electronic Book Review (electronicbookreview.com). In her practice, Anne collaborates with texts and writers to produce new modes of reading and writing. Despite winning the prestigious Leipzig Award for the “Most Beautiful Book in the World,” Anne does not call her practice book design. Rather, she designs spaces for writing in diverse media and environments, which sometimes includes books. Her projects are wide-ranging: poetry installations for the Getty Research Institute, unique approaches to lexicography with the Austrian Academy of Sciences, experimental fiction at the Walker Art Center’s Gallery 9, and books of literary/media criticism by authors such as Marshall McLuhan and N. Katherine Hayles.
