So this past week my workshop class presented our artist books to everyone in the class. I just wanted to talk about a couple of them that i thought were successful. BI feel that Bree's book was the most successful "artist" book. The book was an hand made accordion book with a blue cover with a decorative pattern and ribbon tied into bows. The cover of the book was a very classically feminine decorative but when the book is opened it is filled with page after page of erotic black and white photographs of two women in intimate embrace. I liked this because it shows the struggle between our outside appearance and our personal feelings and lives. I feel that the book format was a great way of showcasing this. You truly can't judge a book by it's cover.
The other book a feel was successful was Britney's book. The book was also a handmade accordion book. All of the images were family photos. The ways that the photos were set in series told a narrative of a family on vacation. each photo was a great composition and had amazing color. I wish i could describe all that pictures but there must of been over a hundred pictures.
