“Can you make an artist's book with an architect, a musician, a spectacle maker? I think so. Anyway, Arno 's book was a stunt. It is nothing like a traditional book. It is an unplayable jukebox, in which Arno's sources of inspiration are brought together. The round became square: the book is made of vinyl records. We needed more than 30,000 plates to produce the print run. ''
Content Description
Each page of the book made from a rectanglar-cut long-play vinyl record. The circular labels on side 1 of each record have been altered to flip up and show pictures of the artist in poses as various musicians. Card stock covers. Pages attached with elastic cord.
Photographs of Arno by Danny Willems.
