Note
  • "The pages of this unbound artist's book are stacked neatly into a clear plexiglass box, but once you remove the lid and begin to read, the story it contains is anything but orderly. Each page unfolds into a series of four physically connected fragments of text with no prescribed reading order. Created by Barnett to be laid out, stacked, and overlapped into a sculptural text-object by the reader, the book's meaning is the product of artist's concerns in conversation with his readers' design sensibility." --from Printed Matter website.
