Description

This book explores the concept of the book as an art form, focusing on the period from 1960 to 1972. It includes essays and documentation of artist books that challenged traditional notions of art and publishing. Germano Celant, a renowned art historian and curator, provides critical insights into how books became a medium for artistic expression during this transformative era.
