The Book As Art v.13: Mixed Messages draws on the layered complexities of language, saying one thing but meaning another. The objects in this exhibition interpret the concept of the book and invite the viewer to look beyond the printed page to where ideas, words, and symbols are transformed and transfigured. Artists are challenged to embrace the dualities and paradoxes of communication—to celebrate the static and the shifting, the familiar and the foreign, the clear and the cryptic. The Book As Art series seeks to showcase beautifully made volumes, sculptural and conceptual interpretations, mixed-media, and one-of-a-kind approaches to the book format.
