Summary
"Breathe new life into that old cardboard box! Though paper and cardboard seem common and humble materials, discover the totally unexpected, beautiful and intricate art that can be created using the repurposed and upcycled resource. The Art of Cardboard showcases the grand and imaginatinve scale of cardboard art and design. Inside, you'll find jaw-dropping cardboard creations from around the world! You'll dicover the process of each art form, as well as tricks of the trade, from small clever projects to huge art installations. Much more than a book about "neat" cardboard designs, Lori Zimmer guides you through amazing large-scale art production, immersive environments, working from intuition, collaboration, the artist's role in society, alternative creative economies, contemporary mythology, storytelling and more. With such a readily available material, what will you create?"--, Provided by publisher
