Abstract
The book is an object of absolute perfection that has retained its charm over thousands of years. Even in the technological era, it has not abandoned its leading role. In this volume, art celebrates the book as an icon, presenting for the first time installations, photographs and sculptures in which the book is the protagonist. These works were executed by some of the most Italian and international artists, from Pistoletto to Oldenburg, Paladino and Kiefer. (bron: backcover boek)
