Cordeiro, Ana Paula (illus.)

(NY: Center for the Book Arts, 2015). 16mo. Unpaginated. One of twenty-one copies, signed by the artist. Illustrated in Cordeiro's characteristic atmospheric and multimedia style with woodcuts, photopolymer plates, linocuts, and tipped-in photographs. A keen and skillful meditation on the oft overlooked limp vellum binding and on the historic standards used, for better or for worse, to assert the value, monetary or otherwise, of book objects. Cordeiro has taken a sculptural approach to the binding, folding each page and the purple-dyed parchment covers to form, as Cordeiro describes it, "an angled beam." The accompanying cloth box reinforces the form. Fine. Item #32127

Price: $2,750.00
