Tom Bendtsen’s books structure’s are amazing! I wonder if he glues them or just stacks them. If he glues them, though, it would pain me, because it would ruin them.
The ceiling in the library at the Istanbul Modern Museum of Art is also a really great piece of “book art” — thousands of books suspended from the ceiling with steel cables. I can’t link to the image directly, but if you go to site map –> library, they are easy to find. Enjoy!
That’s just the kind of post I love! I am always looking for paper related things on Mighty Goods (which is a great site!) I am obsessed with paper, and the book that Patrick Ng wants to make is awesome! Thanks!

Gabe Pons, a really wonderful and unique artist has also used books in his work. He is incredibly inspiring.
