Lot 202
Smith (Philip, 1928-). Book-Face, book-wall installation composed of approximately 700 paperback books on a white shelf unit made up of three sets of seven vertical shelves, the spines of the books forming a single composite image of a human face, overall size 151 x 168.5cm (59.5 x 66.25ins) The idea of the variable book-wall was one to which Philip Smith returned on several occasions, and this particular installation was displayed in his sitting room. One of his book-walls was pictured in the periodical 'Marché Graphiques', and there is an image of another such installation in 'The Private Library' accompanying an article by Philip Smith, 'Understanding the Physical Book-Arts', in which he begins by discussing the book as more than just a text to be read: "It seems to some people that the sleeping time of most books is wasting the potential of an aesthetic object, although as we can see from figure I, another use may be made of certain kinds of books left in book shelves!" (Fourth Series, Volume 6:2, Summer 1993, pp.52/3). (1)
