Some NEW art books at the library!
- Bookwork byCall Number: N7433.3 .S74 2011 General Collection LVL 2ISBN: 9780226773919Publication Date: 2011-06-01
“There they rest, inert, impertinent, in gallery space—those book forms either imitated or mutilated, replicas of reading matter or its vestiges. Strange, after its long and robust career, for the book to take early retirement in a museum, not as rare manuscript but as functionless sculpture. Readymade or constructed, such book shapes are canceled as text when deposited as gallery objects, shut off from their normal reading when not, in some yet more drastic way, dismembered or reassembled.”
