This handmade accordion book is an analysis of Walter Benjamin’s: “The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction.” Set against the overlying theme of perspectives, this book examines the roles of photography and film, in the context of reality and passing time. The unabridged essay appears in the tan copy, and is accompanied my personal analysis in blue. The book is divided into six chapters. Each one uses a typographic device based on the theme of that chapter.
