Abstract
39 contributors from all over the world take up the question, What Happens at the Intersection of Conceptual Art and Teaching? With drawings by Lydia Ahn and bookwork design by the Dutch firm meeusontwerpt this 350 page book presents complimenting and contrasting takes on this emergent question.
We didn’t want to make a book, we wanted to make an artwork; and yes—we attempted the conceptualist’s mental calisthenic to make it not a book—but here we are: sequential pages, written worlds, composed—mostly linear—ideas; commissioned design and illustrations, paper and ink considerations, print (both the thing and the action), a title, noted contributors, distribution, editing and citational conventions, and two introductions!
This is a book. You’ll hear us call it that.
