The artist book / Laure Prouvost ; [edited by Gavin Everall, Jane Rolo, Camilla Wills]

Annotations and drawings that make reference to the protocols of the book, 'This page does not need you to exist, this page is so heavy to turn, this text like the sound of your voice when reading these words' provoke a physical and affective relationship with the texts and images presented. The Artist Book includes multi-voiced biographies by anonymous contributors, that combine illustrated fantasies, anecdotes and vignettes of the artist, alongside collages of the artist's studio, personal communications and a film on paper. These and other sections demonstrate Prouvost's peculiar and complex navigation of influence, humour, art history and methodologies that informs her idiosyncratic language. Insistent gesticulations and perceptual cues guide the reader's attention and transmit information, as the subject, or narrator, merges with the book itself".
