A BOOK ABOUT DEATH is a project by Matthew Rose that hundreds of artists all over the world are participating in. It will be an unbound book, and anyone that comes to its exhibition (at The Emily Harvey Foundation Gallery in New York) can walk away with its pages, for free.
To create the “pages,” artists made and mailed 500 postcards to the gallery. All postcards contain the words “a book about death.”
The geographical scope of the participating artists is vast. Anyone on earth could write a book about death.
I made 500 postcards cut from Seattle’s surviving printed newspapers.
