About This Item
Ugly Duckling Press, 2010. Hardcover. Very Good. 0x0x0. From Wanafoto: "Open-Book, An Illustrated Essay, is an accordion-fold of eleven five-line observations on an ancient mode of abstract art, a sublime aspect of authority, known as marble revetment. The texts in Open-Book float on reproductions of marble simulations originally made using photo-manipulation software. Anyone can do it, beginning with simple stroke-and-fill drawings, then filtering and re-filtering, as many as dozens of times, letting so-called nature take its course." Eleven five-line texts on marble. One of 500 copies issued. Tight, unmarked copy with minimal shelf wear. Light creases to front panel. Photographs of or additional information about this item are available on request. All inquiries answered promptly.
