Books as ART?

Antiquarian Book Collage by Alexander Korzer-Robinson

We admit that we, here at The Things You Can Read, are visual folks, which is probably why we are so impressed with the work of Alexander Korzer-Robinson.  Over at Flavorwire you can view ten of Alexander Korzer-Robinson's scultptural antiquaian book collages.  The artist is attracted to the medium because of the randomness of the elements.  However, it doesn't look so random to us.  We, don't know about you, but cutting up an old book seems like a scary prospect, but after viewing what Korzer-Robinson is able to create you might think differently.  Enjoy these gorgoues one-of-a-kind creations over at Flavorwireor take a peek at the artist's website.  Let us, Here at The Things You Can Read, know what you think of the collages!

  1. These are amazing! I know another incredible artist whose art involves... carving landscapes inside books. Here's a link: http://www.thisiscolossal.com/2012/06/new-carved-book-landscapes-by-guy-laramee/
    What he can do is simply unbelievable. I'd love to own one of those.
