The walk book
Monograph for Canadian artist Janet Cardiff. An audio walk on CD produced especially for the book is integrated into the book cover. It is closely linked to the content of the book and, together with removable Polaroid images, fold-out pages and facsimiles of the "walks," provides additional access to the art. Large-format illustrations – excerpts and photographs of the works – are collected in the last part of the book.
