An especially beautiful publication from one of the best publishers of artists' books. Conversation Pieces turns on story of Laurent Clerc's deafness as a means of relating the author's own deafness. Intertwining reproductions of Grigely's collection of paper scraps with notes past between people he meets as means of conversation, and images from historic Japanese woodcuts and Western pre-twenty century images. |
