Bookworks
How can a 19th Century photograph or an artefact from the 1960s become a contemporary source of meaning? Artists’ bookworks present a way of looking at such material, point to other meanings and take the reader/viewer through an art process, which involves some detective work. Here are four examples that share similar concerns but the results are very different.
