I am invited to lead a workshop reflecting on what books can be:”Unlike an art book, catalog or monograph that tend to showcase artworks created in another medium, the term ‚artists‘ books‘ refers to publications that have been conceived as artworks in their own right. The book is a medium that allows an artist‘s work to be accessible to a multitude of people in different locations at any given time. While artists‘ books can take on many forms, there are few elements that are common across the practice. Understanding a book as an artwork invites a reflection on the properties of the book form itself.”
