Interest in bookbinding and the related arts has exploded in the past decade, inspiring artists to explore the unlimited possibilities of the form--and delighting collectors, crafters, and gallery owners. Lark's Cover to Cover has been a bestseller for more than ten years, and this new and provocative on-the-page gallery, richly illustrated with hundreds of breathtaking photographs, will appeal to that same large and discerning audience. They'll appreciate the artistry of a finely tooled leather cover, embellished with traditional gold-leaf lettering; the intricacy of an exotic Ethiopian binding with a show-stopping open spine; and others that resemble mysterious puzzle boxes, or that curl, hang, and swirl. The sublimely talented contributors all put their finest work on display: Jeanne Germani's Cloudspeak showcases her own handmade papers, made from such varied materials as recycled denim, thistle, and other plant matter. Chris Bivin's codex-style volume features curious, tiny, found objects. One of Laura Wait's untitled pieces utilizes a handsome raised-cord binding to connect a pair of stained-cedar covers with abstract aluminum letterforms attached. The entire collection is juried by the esteemed Steve Miller.… (plus d'informations)

I found a preview of this title on Google Books -- it was similar to others that I had looked through that showed an illustrations of a highly crafted book art project with name of the artist. But the book is more for inspiration and display than instruction. I enjoyed looking at the examples, but will not need to read it again. ( )

A wonderful visual collection of great artists' books. Unfortunately it is a bit North-American centric, but that does not mean it is not filled with images of amazing works that are sure to inspire other makers of books. Be aware this is just pictures of books, not a how-to guide. ( )
