Art Made from Books - Altered, Sculpted, Carved, Transformed

This volume collects a jaw-dropping assortment of art made from books-by cutting, painting, sawing, laminating, balancing or stacking. The definitive guide to the emerging art form, Art Made from Books showcases groundbreaking work by today''s best practitioners, from Su Blackwell''s whimsical pop-up landscapes to the stacked-book sculptures of Jonathan Callan. A foreword by pioneering artist Brian Dettmer and an introduction by design critic Alyson Kuhn complete the collection, presented in an unusual, tactile package with exposed spine.
