Hasta La Ideas

Im a big fan of Mike Stilkey’s Book Art.

“The book is dying,” artist Mike Stilkey reminds us. Therefore, in an effort to expose and enhance the beauty of the yellowed page and bounded form – which indeed, if “Ipad” and “Kindle”’s world domination strategies succeed, will one day become simply museum memorabilia, Mike paints within books, around books, on stacks of books (which he nobly calls “book sculptures”), and even on walls lined from floor to ceiling with books.
