Couverture souple. Etat : Neuf. Edited by Anne Moeglin-Delcroix (with the collaboration of Annalisa Rimmaudo). English edition 18,5 x 22,5 cm (softcover) 288 pages (ill.) nterviews with a group of pioneering artists' book publishers: Simon Cutts, Hansjörg Mayer, and Leif Eriksson. This book collects the oral testimonies, in English, of a group of publishers of artists' books. During the two founding decades of the 1960s and 1970s, they were pioneers in the countries where they worked and where some of them are still working: Hansjörg Mayer, Simon Cutts in the United Kingdom, Leif Eriksson in Sweden. In addition to the historical interest of these interviews, rich in first-hand informations, there is another interest, more theoretical: they lead to reconsidering the importance of the publisher in the production of artists' books when the genre was just emerging. Indeed, artists have often claimed that they chose the medium of the book to free themselves from institutional constraints and the art market. Autonomy was the key-word. They have therefore emphasised the self-publishing model and minimised the role of publishers. However, the interviews gathered here show, with concrete examples and meaningful anecdotes, that some publishers played a crucial part in the history of the artist's book at the start. Their role was undoubtedly different from that of the traditional art publisher: the aim of this survey is also to put the emphasis on an original figure. It highlights ten non-conformist publishers, each of whom has left his or her singular mark on the artist's book as it tries to define its identity. "Obviously, the relationship between the artist and the publisher was asymmetrical since the artist tended to play the lead role and this was fundamental to the nature of the genre. However, the shift of emphasis did not mean that publishers entirely disappeared, only that their traditional responsibilities changed." Anne M glin-Delcroix. N° de réf. du vendeur ABE-1730807389294
