Her alphabets explore language's \"other\"--hovering presences like silence, nonverbal communication, misspellings, handwriting--and emphasize what written language commonly represses or takes for granted in order to function. But the mechanical processes of language break down under Ebner's close scrutiny; text and language are revealed as eminently physical, concrete manifestations of supposedly immaterial ideas. In her new artist's book, \u003ci\u003eStrike\u003c\/i\u003e, Ebner slows down the pace of reading to its zero degree--one letter, one page. With each letter looming as a monumental, monolithic symbol, \u003ci\u003eStrike\u003c\/i\u003e fosters a reading experience akin to our first decodings of the written word, when we started, as children, to learn how to do things \"by the book.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 520\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.1 x 9.9 x 8 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 26, 2015\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47174888620281,"sku":"9788867491292","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/L3pGc29kTkVzZ0NXclVGcXBPVWd4dz09.webp?v=1767654684","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/shannon-ebner-strike-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
