Storytelling from Guy Laramée

18_02laroussemethodique

In 1999 Guy Laramée, put a sandblaster to a book and within an instant had unveiled his hidden talent for book sculpting. Today his sculptures are internationally known. He’s recently released two additions to his landscape series: The Great Wall and Biblos.

Laramée’s Zen-like philosophy can be easily seen in the stunning works — gaining true knowledge by erosion, not accumulation. He says his sculptures make a statement about being lost in the information age, and that you can know more about the world by knowing less.

Laramée’s sculptures are on exhibit between now and July 15 at the Christopher Henry Gallery in New York City. See more on the exhibit here. [KR]
