CONCEPT:
The book compiles fourteen books written and designed by Gustavo Piqueira that sought to blur many of the existing limits between the established categories of the printed book, through the exploration of the most varied articulations between text and image, visual and material, industrial and handmade, past and present, fiction and nonfiction. The cover therefore reflects two of the main dimensions of Gustavo’s work: the deconstruction of “traditional” arrangements—a book cover in which everything seems out of place—and, by offering the reader the possibility of assembling/disassembling it, a playful look on the book as a material object.
