PBS is airing a short about book art with Matthew Reinhart, Andrea Dezso and Carole Kunstadt. There are some nice shots of artists’ books. Dezso’s, especially, should be viewed full screen.

Thank you. The age of books IS NOT DEAD. And won’t be while artists like these and you are still around to enchant and to seduce us. And while I continue to collect them.
Thank you!
Judging by my own piles around the room here, I don’t think books are going away any time soon, whatever their form. (I suppose it could be worse.)…
That link was scary. I can envisage myself turning into him except I would need a clear passage to the outside world to feed the birds and garden. While the piles of books bred and multiplied. As only books can.
It is a cautionary tale, no doubt. My books have been breeding more than usual lately, even though I long ago ran out of shelf space. Perhaps, though, it might be time to worry when my long-limbed cat has trouble finding enough space to jump off the bed (as has actually happened). Oh dear.
Thank you for posting this; Andrea Dezsö is a favorite of mine and I always love listening to her talking about her work…
Thanks Anna! I’m glad you liked it. Andrea Dezsö is indeed quite interesting.
Hi Chipmunk!
I have been thinking you must be ill as I hadn’t seen any of your posts. Then I discovered you had moved your blog and I missed that post, so you fell off my feed. Glad to see that all is well and you are appearing in my inbox again.
Hope you have a happy time these holidays.

Hi Amanda! Great to hear from you. Thanks. That whole thing with the blog feed has been a real bummer, alas. I appreciate you checking in and finding me again! I hope you are having a wonderful Christmas weekend too. Things are pretty good here, thanks, despite having had two wisdom teeth pulled this week(!). (I’m actually very relieved to have them gone–it’s a bit of a sick Christmas present, but I’m happy.) I do hope your holiday is full of joy and good things.
