Last Copy! Artists' Books: Visual Studies Press 1971-2008

Since its inception in 1971, the Visual Studies Workshop Press has been a vanguard of alternative perspectives, both in practice and politics. This catalogue of work produced at the Visual Studies Workshop Press presents an opportunity to consider a diverse range of materials produced over the past thirty-seven years, to see the results of a program that has insisted on the importance of the artistic process, and to celebrate a discipline-forming body of work that is largely the vision of Joan and Nathan Lyons. The catalogue includes color images of many of the books along with statements by their authors. Through these vignettes of particular works, accompanied by a timeline, it offers a narrative history of the press and describes an important part of the development of artists’ books in North America. This volume offers a useful addition to the growing literature about contemporary artists’ books. Published by Visual Studies Workshop. 175 pages
