Books Created By Visual Artists

Here's an exhibition that examines the intersection of books and visual art: The Artist Turns To The Book. There are some innovative pieces here. For example, with Ode To a Grand Staircase (With Four Hands), you can watch a handmade book unfold as you listen to music by Erik Satie (the music was the inspiration for the book). Anansi Company features removable puppets that accompany a text written in Jamaican English. There are several other examples featured here. It's definitely worth a look. Via Plep.
