A Celebration of Contemporary Book Forms Lark Paperback: 420 pages ( Jul 2007) Language English 200x200mm Editore: Lark Books Argomento: Design 500 Series ISBN / Barcode: 9781579908775 Euro € 28.50 Interest in bookbinding and the related arts has exploded in the past decade, inspiring artists to explore the unlimited possibilities of the form—and delighting collectors, crafters, and gallery owners. Lark’s Cover to Cover has been a bestseller for more than a decade, and this new and provocative on-the-page-gallery will appeal to that same large and discerning audience. They’ll appreciate the artistry of a finely tooled leather cover, embellished with traditional gold-leaf lettering; the intricacy of an exotic Ethiopian binding with a show-stopping open spine; an accordion-fold book that unfurls to reveal a series of printed images; and others that resemble mysterious puzzle boxes, or that curl, hang, and swirl. The entire collection is juried by the esteemed Steve Miller. |
