Summary

This limited-edition artist's book and exhibition catalogue documents the most recent work by the Romanian-born sculptural installation artist, Serge Spitzer, as seen at New York's Nyehaus/Foundation 20/21 in 2006. Taking typical office materials (and mail art) to a new level, the book is actually an ingenious, customized oversized accordion-bound partition folder containing a fastened-in essay by Trevor Smith; a dark-brown kraft cardboard pocket folder which houses a series of delicate, blueprint-esque line drawings; and another fastened-in retention folder containing a series of deluxe, oversized postcards printed with installation shots from the show. An instant collector's item, Round the Corner is numbered with tab labels and was designed to be sent through the mail in a special kraft envelope with sting-and-button style closure.
