The second edition of "Aesthetic Letters" is a retrospective on the early ways of understanding the letter as a container of images and senses, rather than a simple conveyance of meaning. In the late Middle Ages, the letter takes on its own artistic form. The book maps out a timeline, tracing increasingly daring experiments until the breaking point, where the letter becomes a pure artistic medium, detached from any formal need for reading.
The book contains two years of personal field research, unpublished images, and insights into unknown artists.
