Book Sculpture
Signed by Alexander Korzer-Robinson
This artwork is a meticulously crafted book sculpture that captivates with its intricate detail and depth. Enclosed in a robust, dark green frame, the piece draws the viewer into a complex, layered world. The sculpture is an assemblage of meticulously cut and arranged paper elements, creating a three-dimensional scene that appears to be bursting from the confines of the book. The composition is teeming with imagery that seems to intertwine history and imagination. Figures and landscapes emerge from the pages, each element carefully embedded to convey a narrative that is both chaotic and harmonious. At the top, celestial beings and mythological figures suggest a realm of fantasy, while below, scenes reminiscent of historical epochs and architectural grandeur unfold. The color palette is a sophisticated blend of earth tones and vibrant accents, which accentuate the sculptural elements and add a dynamic flow to the piece. Shadows cast by the layered paper add further depth, enhancing the illusion of a scene in motion. What sets this piece apart is its ability to transform a traditional book into a vivid tableau, offering a visual journey that is both intellectual and whimsical. The artist's skillful manipulation of paper invites viewers to lose themselves in the myriad of stories and possibilities contained within the bounds of this singular work.

Presentation
Alexander Korzer-Robinson is a UK-based artist whose work transforming antiquarian books has brought him international acclaim. Working mainly in collage and related techniques, the practice's focus are sculptural artworks made from antiquarian books.
The base material for his "cut book sculptures" are old books that have been stripped of their utilitarian value by the passage of time. Working through a book, page by page, a new composition is formed using only the contents of the original volume.
Alexander Korzer-Robinson: 'The use of antiquarian books makes the work at the same time an exploration and a deconstruction of nostalgia. We create our own past from fragments of reality in a process that combines the willful aspects of remembering and forgetting with the coincidental and unconscious.'
