READER'S DELIGHT

MCKENZIE FINE ART


Fantastic books-related art show going on at McKenzie Fine Art in Chelsea. The show features breathlessly white-toned photographs by Mary Ellen Bartley, book paintings by Richard Baker, "fired books" (what can that mean? I just know they're awfully pretty) by Yohei Nishimura, and collage work by Mamiko Otsubo, among many others.  The show ends on August 6th, so hightail it down to 25th St. (Thanks, Mary!)

    There is also a wonderful show 'The Art of the Book' going on right now in San Rafael at the Donna Seager Gallery. -L

  2. "Fired" means fired in a kiln. Paper turns to ash, but books (apparently) retain their form to some extent.
    Nishimura is a ceramicist, among other things.
