Book art
6 05 2007After you read the book, you can play with it too.
Georgia Russell from Scotland uses scalpel instead of a brush or a pen. Her creations look like some fairy-tale creatures.
Book of lights is both a book and a lamp. It was created by Takeshi Ishiguro for Arctecnica. The lamp can be powered by a simple low voltage adapter.
Cara Borer says “My photographs are primarily a documentation of a physical evolution. I have changed a common object into sculpture in a state of flux.”
I left a book outside in the rain once… it got all wrinkled too… why didn’t I think to call it art? Silly me.
Absolutely beautiful work. I love the cut out books, especially the art book turned into a gun.
Book art #3 with the flower garden is so neat. I’ve seen so many attempts at book art where the person simply draws on the pages and adds cut out to it calling it art but THIS, this is a class all of it’s own. Very nice!

Absolutely beautiful, I especially love the one encased in resin; but what a horrible thing to do to a book.
What a horrible waste of classic books. I hate how people call mutilating others work “art”.
People that defend books in this case are a little out of their minds. There are many copies of these books, old editions and new, but these art pieces are one of a kind.
hey, Nathan, these books was published by millions, don’t you think ONE of the damn classic can be “wasted” for only ONE superb, marvellous piece of art? That was my opinion, and I haved to say it.
Love them, unique and creative
