Don’t try this at home!

April 13th, 2007 FunForever

You think that books are just for reading? It turns out that many people think different.

Georgia Russell is from Scotland. She uses scalpel instead of a brush or a pen. Her creations look like some fairy-tale creatures. Absolutely unique artist!

Another book loving artist is Cara Borer. As she herself states, “My photographs are primarily a documentation of a physical evolution. I have changed a common object into sculpture in a state of flux.”

    […] Confused on what to do with those overly expensive textbooks the schools won’t buy back? Don’t use them as firewood; instead take a look at what a handful of artists are doing to create unique art from books. In everything from mild to wild, these artists manipulate and photograph books in a plethora of captivating poses. It’s proof once again anything can be made into something creative with a little ingenuity and thought. So grab your Photoshop 6 bible and get busy. If you actually create and photograph your handy work, we’ll post it here on the site and send the top entry a prize. In the meantime, check out some cool art and enjoy your weekend. […]

    And to all of you hack artists who partake in this kind of literary destruction, try writing a book. Then maybe you will have more respect for them…

  • 51. Smarter Than You  |  April 30th, 2007 at 2:42 pm

    You know what? Art is whatever the artist deems it is. Art has no rules, art knows no boundaries. It is painfully obvious that these negative comments are written by those unfulfilled by the beauty of art in any and all its forms. Books are printed more than once, by the way, these books have other copies so you folks who pretend to hate just to be sheep can read them, calm down. These pieces are some of the most brilliant and original works I have seen in a long time. Bravo!

    I have been a reader since I knew what a book was but not all books are worth reading and many are futile repeats.Therefore if you have the talent to create then try to use recycled products when possible and pass them on.There are millions of no value books so help yourself and advertise such wonderful talent because we need beauty in the midst of crude ugliness. I appreciate your sharing because being creative builds hope..Pay no ATTENTION to negative comments from idle minds. As for the bible I will embrace its message and pass it on to those who relize an opportunity for improvement!! YOU DESERVE AN AWARD FOR EXCELLANCE!!

I will send you details of the exhibition later in the year and update you on her new works. I also enjoyed seeing the other artists that you featured.

    It amazes me to see how many people reacted by stating that books should not be defaced in the name of art. The last time I checked, there is no shortage of books, and the greatthing is we have the ability and capacity to print more.

    And simply because a book has been around a few more years than others does not give it any more intrinsic value per se. If the artist owns the property, he or she has the right to do with the article however he or she sees fit unless it is specifically protected by law.

    It never ceases to amaze me how some can find controversy in almost anything. they’re paper and ink; books that undoubtedly are still in wide circulation - it’s not like the artist used the Dead Sea scrolls, the Magna Carta, or the original Bill of Rights.

    And so what if one of the books was the Bible? Again, just paper and ink, no more sacred than any other combination of the same two materials. We can print more, the artist is not killing God or blaspheming. Besides, not everyone shares the oipinion that the Bible is Truth and the word of God.

    Great work, the art is very pleasing to the eye and is cleverly done. I, for one, appreciate the multiple levels on which the art operates. These aren’t just random works, each relates specifically to the particular medium used. Very well done!

    I was going to react to the book defacing comments, but I don’t have to. All my points have been made and made well. I love these pictures and I enjoy their subversiveness, particularly the ones that have trees and gardens growing out of them. There is more than one way for a book to “come to life”, apparently.

    Now I love books, I have enough of them I could fill a whole room full of bookshelves if I had the space. However unless a book is very rare and valuable (say first edition of something like the Great Gatsby) then it only has the value you give it emotionally and more of them can and probably more will be printed if the book is any good (for example I’m sure Alice in Wonderland has never been out of print for very long).

  • 91. Kirby  |  July 30th, 2007 at 6:29 pm

    It is such a shame to see books stuck on shelves, in boxes, stuffed into garages, storage units and who knows where else. I see beautiful books at garage sales for a dollar. Some books are precious works and should be saved, but if non precious books can be used to create beautiful artwork, then I am all for it! Sometimes I think fabric that can never be made again is even more precious than books — I don’t even sew, but I do read books $ they are to be enjoyed — no matter what.

    Oo I say, what snazzy little innovators we are. Theme: cutting up books is fun/clever.
    Trite idea pandering to insecure semiliterates: selling art in this manner degrades the plastic arts including those shown.

    This is absolutely amazing! Art can truly be anywhere. Thank you for sharing!

    To all of you who are appalled at the book art, haven’t you people ever heard of altered books?!!! They are everywhere including museums and galleries. There is even an international organization for altered books. ISABA- check it out, enlighten yourselves! I have a great love and respect for books. But there are millions and millions of them -many just gathering dust. Not to mention hundreds of the same title that most are interested in. I get some for altering from the Goodwill or the library when they are getting rid of them. I don’t make these amazing carved kind but the more typical altered books.

    Who created the two Alice in Wonderland sculptures of Alice by the tableside at the tea party?

  • 106. huda  |  September 21st, 2007 at 3:51 pm

    They must be very bored with reading so they tend to create such artwork=p

    Where people cut books, people will cut people

  • 108. Rob  |  October 11th, 2007 at 7:10 pm

    I’m big reader so i was originally put off by the defacement of books. But it’s the content rather than the object that is sacred which, i think, is part of your point.
    Beautiful sculptures!
    Did you choose the books to match the piece?

  • 110. sas  |  October 26th, 2007 at 1:44 am

    how do call this kind of books?with all these stuff inside that take a shape when you open it?

  • 111. Caseylee Benton  |  October 28th, 2007 at 11:36 pm

    Works of Art!! Simply sublime. I’m a bibliiophile. I read books ( 10 -15 a week) all genres, I reread books, I covet books - old, new, borrowed, blue. I WISH I had the talent and the nerve to even attempt something as glorious as this! Not all books need be saved, but all books need to be used.

    Hi Admin,
    I like those pictures you posed in later part, those books with desk and cups or a couple standing on the book one.
    It’s really amazing to see them, do you know where can I find more of thes works or the artist?

    Thanks!

    This is wrong, so many of you refer to this as the art of books. That could not be further from the truth, the art of books is the written word, not sculpted pages. I view what is being done here as graffiti, same on you.

  • 121. cristina  |  January 25th, 2008 at 11:47 am

    soy encuadernadora y restauradora de libros y aunque siempre me preocupe de la recuperación de los mismos para que sigan funcionando como tales, me sorprendo con esta posibilidad de arte. felicitaciones. son hermosas obras. quizas pueda inspirarme y lograr alguna. adelante son bellísimas

  • 125. eleanor  |  March 25th, 2008 at 9:32 pm

    Love your list of book artists! I have an MA in Book Art and I wrote my own blog, where I have just done a similar list. I have a couple that you don’t and vise versa. Thank you. x

  • 134. Pappillion Beauchamp  |  October 1st, 2008 at 4:11 am

    I just pooped in my pants, and I don’t know what to do about it. I’m just sitting here, in shit, totally at a loss as to what to do. I never thought I would be capable of this, but damned if my balls aren’t being slowly corroded by my own hot putrescence. I just thought of a scene from the show Futurama, laughed loudly and unexpectedly, and literally shit in my pants. For anyone who thinks I’m joking, I say this: I envy you. I urge anyone who thinks that they aren’t capable of this to take a moment to give thanks that they too aren’t stupefied by a hot, stinking, smashed turd in their skivvies.

  • 135. David  |  November 25th, 2008 at 10:29 pm

    Fascinating work. Thank you!
