Title:
Six of one … : … and a half dozen of the other
Creator:
Rindl, Deb
Description:
Two stapled cardboard slipcases, each containing 6 folded, cut pieces of colored paper. No text on pages. v.1, "Six of One..." slipcase contains text: "As broad as it's long / To the point / Middle of the road / Betwixt & between / Little & often / Ad infinitum." v.2 "...And a half dozen of the other" slipcase contains text: "Fair and square / Side by side / Between the lines / Plain and purl / edge to edge / Strait as an arrow"; presumably, these are tables of content for each slipcase. "Deb Rindl has always worked with the book form, producing an oeuvre of hand held and sculpturally based book-objects. Her method of sketching (conventionally perceived as a meeting of pencil and paper) is to take a blank sheet of paper and start folding. The book for her is three dimensional and architectural, something to be explored as much with the hand as the eye. Rindl trained in the graphic arts as a response to her love of typography. She uses type as both communications medium and texture, playing it across surfaces, thereby incorporating it into the structure of the book, while reinforcing the subject matter she wishes to relate."-- http://www.moufflon…
