About this work
Description
"In the opening lines of The New Art of Making Books Ulises Carrión considers books as a sequential spatiotemporal experience. Indeed, books (old and new) are good at documenting time. They have done so for centuries in the form of diaries, sequential narratives (novels), biographies, coronation books, chronicles, accounts, planetary charts, etc. In the Space of Time looks at artists books though the lens of conceptual metaphor theory and considers how artists use the space of the book as the space of time."-- Provided by publisher.
