How books work
| Description: |
In paper portfolio with mounted color illustration including title.In an age of electronic media and virtual simulacra What is a book? is a common question. This is the question that Chen and Meador, two veteran practitioners near the top of any serious list of contemporary book artists, address in How Books Work.This elegantly simple book marries structure and content in the best tradition of artists books. It begins: What is a book? A book is an experience. And ends: A book starts with an idea. And ends with a reader.--Vamp & Tramp Booksellers (accessed May 30, 2018).I-ART: Librarys copies signed by the authors. |
