What is an artist book?
An artist book is a work of art that utilizes the form/physicality of the book. These books can be one of a kind or printed in small editions. Artist books are typically made by hand with the artist having a lot of control over the form, content, and structure. Artist books come in all shapes and sizes and tend to challenge the traditional format of a book.
