Bookseller Notes

'Este libro es un homenaje a los signos ortogrficos y tiene como origen mi fascinacion por el lenguaje y su plasticidad. Este libro es un homenaje a las persianas.' (This book is a tribute to punctuation marks and has as its origin my fascination with language and its plasticity. This book is a tribute to blinds.) (Ivn Krassoievitch) The artist's statement is followed by the Real Academia Espaola y Asociacin de Academias de la Lengua Espaola dictionary's definition of punctuation marks. A graphically striking work, beautifully executed, which elevates the humble, and often overlooked, punctuation mark to a new artistic level.
