Artist's Book - a new genre in contemporary art. Perhaps it is even more than the genre, as it can be represented in the form of lithographs, etchings, woodcuts, monotypes, and contemporary trends - mail-art, performance, installation, etc..
Another name for this genre Artbuk. The book, created by the artist - more than a book because the author and artist in one person. Artbuk as the link between literature and contemporary art.

His work:
6,7 - Art-Equilibrium
8.9 - Reading and nechten
"... but now it turned out that the book, the text fails to reflect!" That is reflected, he reflected, but turns into gibberish! And to read it to another mirror! "That is a reflection of reality, given in the text and the secondary reflection in the mirror to be deciphered another mirror! And if you put two mirrors opposite each other, attaching to one of them a book, we get an endless string of readable and unreadable text. Reading and Nechten ".
10 - Michael Pogarskij

This is not a new genre, it is very many years:) There's even a range of collectors who collect books of the artist (eg, B. M. Friedman). We know that not many of these books reach the present day in safety. It happened that the sellers "pulled out" from the author's books illustrations of artists and sold separately - to receive benefits: (Books of the artist is even in our sixties - for example, Edward Steinberg.

5 - "An old woman from excessive curiosity, fell out of the window, fell and broke. From another old woman leaned out the window and looked down at the break but from excessive curiosity, too, fell from the window, fell and broke. Then out of the window fell out a third old woman, then the fourth , then the fifth. When the sixth old woman fell out, I got tired of looking at them, and I went to Maltsevsky market, where, say, a blind man gave a knitted shawl.
6 - "Recovers Masha mushroom, picked him and carried him to the market. The market Masha hit on the head, and even promised to hit her legs.
7 - "On the waterfront of our rivers were a lot of people. Drowning in the river, the regiment commander Sepunov. He gasped, jumped out of the water on the belly, screamed, and again sank into the water. Hands he beat in all directions, and again yelled that he should be rescued.
The people stood on the shore and looked gloomily. "
8 - "The clock is something I turned, and came to me messengers.
9 - "When I see a man, I want to punch him in the face. It is so nice to beat in the face of man!
I sit in my room and do nothing.
That someone came to visit me, he is knocking at my door.
I say: "Come in!" He enters and says: "Hello, How good that I found you at home!" I knock on his face, and then another boot in the crotch. My guest falls flat on his back from the terrible pain. And I am his heel on the eyes! They say, nothing to hang, when not called! "

Sad ((
what exactly was in Edward Steinberg?

I do not remember:) This was the first artist book, which I saw, so was influenced by the genre. What was the draw? His recognizable geometric abstraction, lithographs.

Tamila, Thank you very much, but about antiquarian books, private collections, if possible, write a few words.
Best regards.

Eugene, tomorrow I will attend the presentation of the book Bruno Nivera, and I plan to visit an antique Book Fair, I'll write about it. Just for one day all at once did not see. By the size of the event probably even more than Antique Salon.
