Lecturas para un Espectador Inquieto

Marc Català

This book is an advanced guide to contemporary art. While highly academic it still aims to teach amateurs key concepts on contemporary art. The design is based around a basic shape: a vertical rectangle. It represents the field the book operates in (the block of text), but also the space of the artwork. The openings in the book modulate this basic rectangle to represent the various themes. The format is a hybrid between a large coffee table art book and a smaller book that is easier to read.
