book art object
book art object, recently published, is a record of the first CODEX book fair and symposium held in Berkeley 2007. Hardbound, 12" by 9" (and weighing approximately 20 pounds, making it attractive to fitness buffs too), book art object is the book you will pull out to show the people who say "What is an artist's book?" With essays that parse book arts, 735 color images, 200 pages of reproductions by exhibitors, the book reconstructs the event, which drew artists, designers, and printers from all over the world. It also serves as an encyclodepia of some of the best contemporary art of our time.
book art object is edited and designed by David Jury, with a preface
by Peter Koch and introduction by David Jury. Also included are illustrated transcripts of the
four symposium speakers: Robert Bringhurst, Felipe Ehrenberg, Sarah Bodman, and
Dr. Stefan Soltek.
The book includes five essays
written by prominent artists and bookmakers from around the world:
Crispen Elsted, Canada; Markus Fahrner, Germany; Martha Hellion,
Mexico; Jadwiga Jarvis, Australia; and Gerald Lange, United States of
America.
book art object contains an index of contact information
and historical details for every 2007 CODEX book fair exhibitor,
including descriptions of their working methods and current work.
book art object $75.00 + $5.00 shipping within the United States. Contact www.codexfoundation.org. The book will also be available for sale at the CODEX Book Fair.
