Carol June Barton
Instructions for Assembly, 1993
Nexus Press; Atlanta, Georgia
This book is a project by Barton to demonstrate how the “pop-up”
structure works. The book is composed of three different subjects.
The first chapter is “Desk with a Drawer for Each Expectation,”
the second chapter “Always have your ready-to-wear ready, for
the rarest occasion may occur at any time, in any place or special
space, when you least expect it.” Lastly, “Clock/Compass for the
Time/Space Traveler.” Each page has text about these subjects,
but the artist’s purpose was not to make it readable, but to focus
on how the pop -up works, and on the lively format. In the begin-ning
of the book it has the message “To complete the projects, turn
the pages.” Meaning the artist plans to teach the reader and to
push the book’s pages beyond their flat surfaces and integrate a
message into the book’s form, weaving visual and verbal narra-tive
into the magic of a third dimension.
Rae Trujillo
JELLO and the Dark Side, 2006
Rae’s of Sun; Pleasant Hill, California
Mixed media in a collage structure; bound by two strips of pa-per,
with hand written text.
Rae Trujillo is a book artist that is interested in storytelling, and
investigating materials, structures, and forms. Her books cap-ture
stories that people can understand and relate to. JELLO and
the Dark Side represents this through exploring materials by the
use of mixed media. The main story that Trujillo is trying to cap-ture
is something many people can relate to: Jello. Jello, an
American favorite for many years, Trujillo takes a humorous
stance on the history of it and the “dark side” facts that you
might want to know. For example, “The production of gelatin
starts with the boiling of bones, skins, and hides of pigs, horses,
and cows…” She pairs each fact with an attractive photo of Jello
used in different recipes. Trujillo is addressing the issue of peo-ple
not being aware of what they eat. Many people consume all
types of food not realizing the process that goes into it or the
harm it could be doing to their health and bodies.
