For centuries books have contained and presented that information that has allowed humankind to study and interpret the world. As the written word had become reality available through different media, contemporary artist have increasingly been exploring the interplay between the function, structure, and format of books literally deconstructing then using scalpels and knives. Book Art is a stunning documentation of current art, installation, and design created with and from books. The fascinating range of examples, which is as diverse as books themselves, offers eloquent proof that- despite digital media's inroads as sources of text information the book's legacy as a carrier of ideas and communication is being expanded today in the creative realm. Colour photography throughout
