Spinal Taps

Nina Katchadourian’s “Sorted Books” project makes inspired use of book spines . . .

Katchadourian’s are so much better, but anyway here are a couple of pieces (the first from 2002, the second from 2003) I made using a similar method.

Blue Books on a Given Shelf

Comrade Past & Mister Present
You Are Happy

April Galleons
The Cities

The Light Around The Body
Scrambled Eggs & Whiskey

[wordless spine]
The Flowering Stone


Red Spines This Time

The Young Recruit
The Human Abstract

Great Tranquility: Questions and Answers
The Ruins of Providence

Nothing Happened and Besides I Wasn’t There

Heartbeat Geography
The Green Lake Is Awake
