Irena Frantal / Artist Book

Irena Frantal: NOT SURE Artist book, 2016. Size: closed 20 x 21 cm, Text by the author; english language Intervention with cut or stenciled text into two sewn-together found brochures . Original unique artist book Handmade by artist Ovaj rad je dio ciklusa Tekstovi izvan konteksta (2016)o kojem sam tada napisala ovo: Promatram vlastiti tekst izvan konteksta mojih knjiga. Uzimam za podlogu pronađeni materijal. Namjerno skupljam promidžbeni materijal, broušure, kataloge, letke; oni su raznih dimenzija, formi. Otvaraju se iz harmonike ili su presavijeni plakati/katalozi. Svi drže određene informacije i vizualni jezik. Interveniram urezivanjem teksta ili ispisivanjem teksta pomoću šablona i boje u spreju. Želim vidjeti što se događa sa tekstom izbačenim u okoliš «kojemu ne pripada»... Gdje uopće tekst pripada? Kao oni kratki tekstovi/rečenice/grafiti – poruke na fasadama ulica grada. Nečiji tok misli izbačen u kontekst žive ulice. Oni tjeraju na zastajanje, u trenu nude novi pogled.
