"Das andere Buch" examines the evolution of the book as an artistic medium. It features a collection of works where books are reimagined through various artistic forms, including sculpture, collage, and installation. The publication serves as both a catalog of an exhibition held in the Volkshalle of the Vienna City Hall from July 30 to October 26, 1993, and a scholarly exploration of the intersection between literature and visual art. The book showcases contributions from numerous artists and provides insights into the creative processes behind these innovative works.
