SMVB head/foot — Scott McCarney VisualBooks

Scott McCarney is an artist and educator based in Rochester NY who has made artists books since 1980. VisualBooks is the moniker for his small edition and DIY production projects. His work incorporates frequently overlooked details of day-to-day life that reflect our human condition. He uses photography and the computer to realize Mallarmé’s aphorism, “Everything in the world exists in order to end up as a book,” while employing his hand and wit to accentuate the books inherent materiality.
