Collect Artists Who Make Books BROWSE BOOKWORKS FROM TAUBA AUERBACH, ED RUSCHA, GERHARD RICHTER & MORE

At a time of maximal saturation in electronically delivered images and texts, the artist's book is, perhaps unsurprisingly, gaining strength. Despite its objecthood, the genre still has something to offer—perhaps more than ever—in attempting to place art directly in the viewer's hand. Lynn Hershman Leeson once claimed that artists' books had the capacity to "isolate the reader in a packaged retreat from the dissonance" of our world. This collection, we hope, might do so similarly.
