"Books by Artists"

"Books by Artists" refers to publications created by visual or conceptual artists, often serving as a form of artistic expression themselves. These books can include artist monographs, experimental publications, limited editions, or zines, and are designed to communicate ideas, showcase work, or challenge traditional notions of publishing. They blend art and literature, often blurring the line between a gallery exhibit and a printed object. Such books are considered artworks in their own right, emphasizing innovative design, content, and process, and are valued by collectors, museums, and contemporary art communities.
