A Cautionary Tale of Artist Book













Here is imagery of my artist book from Emily Martin's Artist Book class from the fall.  It's a very long accordion book structure.  This book took minimally altered lines of text from June 5th's 2011's New York Times front page.  Each page has a line of text and each panel has half of an individual letter that spells out a repeated phrase.  The book is unusually long so it was quite difficult to document in full length but you can get a good idea.  The traditional colors of paper and type choice is juxtaposed against the text of the book.  The book is 72'long open and consists of 18 panels.
