Author: Horn, RoniIn her artist's book 82 Postcards, Roni Horn takes the titular medium and classifies its photographs, designs and text in a unique system of symbols and visual co des. Her translation of these mementos -- mostly from North America, but some from farther afield -- lays bare the interplay of their various parts, questioning how pieces of content come together to form the basis of complex cultural phenomena like tourist attractions, popular science and national identity.ISBN 9783952446164.
