How Painting Works, by Karin Lanzoni, is an artist's book comprised of pen and ink drawings with collaged painterly cutouts. The cutouts come directly from the dried palettes leftover from her painting practice. These painted cutouts, gestural in look and acting as beautiful markers of frozen time and space, work within the context of an ink drawing to reveal their own contradictory existence. The drawings are created from a variety of sources that include an odd assortment of tools in the studio, stuff around the house, extracts from the artist's life, and views of the Southern Californian landscape. Collectively, they are ruminations about small unpredictable moments in life that gently collide with an artistic sensibility. Conceived of as an artist's book and not a catalog of the artist's work, Lanzoni's book can be seen as a magical x-ray machine into an artist's thinking. She demonstrates a peculiar view of the world; a world with sly insight and careful thought into the intangible properties of seeing, thinking, and meaning.Exploring the relationship between painting and drawing, schema and abstraction, and painting and metaphor, this unique book is expertly printed in a limited edition of 150 copies.KARIN LANZONI, Artist; How Painting Works; Typecraft, Printer; Yiheng Yu, Designer; Michael Underwood, Photographer; 12 x 9 inches with 80 Pages + Cover w/ Tip-on; Text: 80lb Superfine Eggshell iTone Ultra White Cover, 4/4 Process Digital; Covers: Brillianta Cloth #4001 White over .098 Chipboard, 8x10" Matte Black Foil Front & Spine, De-boss for Tip-on, Silkbead Ultramarine Head & Tail Bands; End Sheets: 80lb Rainbow Text Saffron, Blank; Tip-on: 100lb Superfine Eggshell Text, Ultrawhite, 4/0 Process, Die Cut & Tip-on to Cover; Smyth Sew, Case Bind
