New York: Beatrice Coron, 2002. A unique work from noted book artist Beatrice Coron. Beatrice is particularly renowned for her skills and creativity with paper cutting. She writes: "For the last 20 years, I have been exploring visual storytelling in artist books, paper cutting and public art. Collecting memories from individuals and communities, I stage narrative allegories in silhouette to create a dialogue with the viewer in playful fantasies. These visual chronicles record archetypal stories that transcend time and space. I have been fascinated by the relation of people to their space and the sense of belonging. Using papercutting where everything is cut from a single piece of Tyvek, the profusion of individual stories makes a coherent whole world."
This work has a four panel papercut done from Arches to depect a flow of images of skylines and people. The papercuts are housed in a hard cover folder with multicolored painted lines and a black leather spine. It in turn is in a blue paper slipcase. An interesting work in fine condition. Papercut opens to 3 x 29.5 inches. ARTB/062024. Fine.
