Abstract

MARTINEZ MUSINO, Celso. From the traditional book to the alternative book: forms, materials and word variants. Biblios [online]. 2017, n.67, pp.56-68. ISSN 1562-4730.  http://dx.doi.org/10.5195/biblios.2017.322.

Objectives. Describes the process of transition from traditional book to alternative book; to investigate the word conversion of artists' books, or book object (and other ways to mention) the alternative book, and; to refer the materials used in the production of alternative scriptural books as objects. Method. Descriptive study, of firsts approximation, whose research procedure was as follows: desk research and visits to museums; selection and analysis of data collected; writing of the results and conclusions. Discussion. The term alternative book has its origins as the traditional book as other book art object, travel books or books artist artistic manifestations, etc., on the other hand, some works, product of artists, have such different formats as sources as the origin to produce manuscripts or printed books. Results of the study indicate that alternative books have different verbal origins, traditional books being the starting point of the book object. Conclusions. A set of denominations, the alternate book is the term that the artistic community of the works analyzed for our research has adopted. Moreover, the form of traditional books can change almost entirely, so the redesign or intervention of artists, as well as the diversity of materials and techniques used.

Keywords : Alternative book; book; writing objects.
