Brian Dettmer’s Book Art

By Dan Gould on March 20, 2009

Boing Boing points us to the impressive book-art of Brian Dettmer. He makes detailed, surreal sculptures by performing “book autopsies”. Dettmer skillfully manipulates and cuts apart old books into new forms. He’s having a show at Chicago’s Packer Schopf Gallery, which opens on April 3rd. More images of Dettmer’s books here.
