Thesis title
The creative process of the Artist’s Book in the artistic making of the expanded field of printmake
FCT reference

Abstract
Assuming that the Artist’s Book is a powerful mechanism for creativity and investigation, where processes and results merge, it is intended to investigate the hybrid territory between its creative potential and the language of artistic engraving, in which printing acts as a medium. to transport ideas and knowledge, and which allows exploring multiple practices of Contemporary Art. Based on the method of Sandra Rey (1996), it is intended to identify the Artist’s Book as a work of art from three dimensions: Abstract, Cultural and Practical. This investigation also has the objective of elaborating a model for the analysis of Artists’ Books. We will resort to the historical studies of Paulo Silveira (2001) and the Genetic Criticism of Cecília Salles (2004), to investigate the singularities of the creative processes of the interviewed artists and the authors, when developing the artistic production in the studio that will contribute to the analysis and understanding of the impact of this research in Art.
