“Turning the Page” examines the book as a primary medium for creating art. The goal is to explore as many approaches as possible. It begins with the belief that the physical qualities of books - the pages, papers, inks, covers and bindings provide artists with a source material that is difficult to surpass, rich in associations and textures to be mined and repurposed in satisfying and meaningful ways. The seven artists represented each approach the book in a unique way. Weaving materiality and meaning, these artists inspire us to consider books not just for their content, but their intrinsic tactile and visual qualities.
