Abstract

Artists' books are a platform for personal expression created without censorship or outside influence. They are a medium of expression that employs the structure of a book as an inspiration while challenging the conventional contents of a printed volume. Artists' books are produced in limited numbers and are classified as works of art, typically produced by a single creator. The Artist Book collection at FGCU's Archives and Special Collections features books from the 1970s to present day.
