Introductory statement and historical background also by Daina Augaitis
"In Eastern Europe, the sequence of events has closely followed the development in the West; however, the artists' book continues to have a deeper significance in a world where artistic expression often collides with political forces. An artist wishing to explore 'unofficial' art ideas must do so surreptitiously and may have more freedom in preforming actions that will not be understood by authorities, yet will communicate to an art audience. The book is more than documentation or manifesto or art object; in many cases, the making of it becomes an artistic action in itself." (from the introductory statement)
