Please excuse duplication--
Are you interested in artists' books? Do you
tend to put Art Documentation aside when it comes in the mail,
postponing it for when you have "more time." Don't miss the very
interesting--and challenging--article in the current (Vol.25, no. 1--Spring 06)
issue of Art Doc on the Artists' Books Conference that was organized by
ARLIS/SC May 21-24, 2005. It's by Lynne S. Vieth, who is an MLIS Graduate
Student at San Jose State U. The title is "The Artist's Book Challenges
Academic Convention," and it's on p.14-19. I don't know Ms. Vieth, but her
article is definitely the work of a mature writer, who not only attended the
conference, but also brings a good deal of the relevant literature to bear
on the subject. Definitely worth a look.
