Bibliography

Artist Books by Ginny Hoyle and artist Judy Anderson

An artist book is a piece of art created as a hand-built book. It may use materials and forms perfected centuries ago, or introduce surprising new forms and materials. Artist books push boundaries and honor the place of books and ideas in our world. One-of-a-kind, or issued in very small editions, they are purchased for private and public collections, exhibited and traded by collectors.
