Part
of the mission of ubu studio is to provide a venue for important contemporary
media that for one reason or another doesn't seem to get fair exposure
to the art viewing public. Artist publications are one such marginalized
medium. Note: This is an archive of the books that were available at ubu studio art gallery. Since the gallery is closed, I do not have these books any more. If you are interested however, I can put you in contact with the individual artist. Please see the ubustudio .com main page for contact info.

What is an Artist Book?
An
Artist Book is a form of expression in multiple copies. A modern offspring
of the fine art print, artist books take advantage of readily accessible
means (photocopiers, computer printers, laser printers or manual hand
printing devices) to produce a series, or an edition, which is then
bound as a book, pamphlet or folder of pages For a more detailed discussion
of the medium of the artist book I would urge you to check out Printed
Matter in NYC.
