Summary
"Artist books are works of art created in book form, or rather forms, as there are a myriad of approaches such as pages in a box, scrolls, fold outs and even a Rolodex. They can be one-offs or produced in small editions ... [This book] presents selected works from the collection of the National Gallery of Australia."--Book jacket.
