THIS LIMITED EDITION IS SOLD OUT.
Ann Hamilton’s rhythmic sculpture is a rectangular glass-enclosed case of lacquered birch. Inside the case is an open, antique hardcover book from which she sliced out a number of pages. The pages were then glued together in a ribbon of text with each line covered in delicate, tiny pieces of colored stones and pebbles she gathered from a California beach. There are forty cases in the edition, each one different.
