More than forty unique artists s books, their pages painted with gesso to mimic marble, can be found in the exciting new tome. Artists s books are an integral part of Kiefer s oeuvre; over time they have ranged in scale from the intimate to the monumental, and in materials, from lead to dried plant matter.
