Description: This study observes the composition and distribution of books in the diversity of its aesthetic possibilities: the several materials and formats are considered, together with all the different participants to the publishing process (writers, artists, bookbinders, publishers).
Synopsis: L'etonnante diversite des possibilites esthetiques offertes par le livre comme support materiel de la fin du XIXe siecle aux experimentations les plus contemporaines, est au c÷ur de la reflexion proposee dans ce livre. La page, le feuillet et le livre, l'ecran aussi, debordent le cadre du codex et du livre relie (livre en eventail, leporello, recueil d'affiches, livre dresse, livre sculpte, livre eclate, livre numerique, etc.), par l'heterogeneite de leurs matieres, de leurs formes et de leurs formats. Ils deviennent des supports actifs dans le processus de conception et de reception de l'÷uvre. Observer les processus de composition et de diffusion des ÷uvres dans leurs singularites materielles, tel est l'objet de ce livre. Cette recherche engage a prendre la mesure du role des differents acteurs dans la conception du livre, non plus seulement l'ecrivain et l'artiste mais aussi le typographe, le relieur, l'editeur ou le galeriste, chaque acteur pouvant lui-meme etre polyvalent. La porosite des frontieres entre les activites, les metiers, engendre naturellement la porosite entre les genres litteraires et artistiques. The heart of the reflection in this book is the diversity of aesthetic possibilities of the book as material support, from the late nineteenth century to contemporary experiments. The page, the sheet and the book go well beyond the codex and the bound book, in the heterogeneity of their materials, forms and formats (fans, leporellos, poster collections, upright books, book sculptures, exploded books, electronic books, etc.): they are active supports in the design and reception process. This book observes the process of composition and distribution of works in their material singularities, including the role of the different stakeholders in the design of the book, not only the writer and the artist but also the typographer, bookbinder, publisher or gallery owner, each playing a multiplicity of roles. Such porous borders between roles and crafts generate porosity between the literary and artistic genres.
