Sobre este artículo
New York: Rizzoli, 2013. As new.. By the author/artist:. Large octavo. Decorated boards. New and updated edition, first published in 1981, both this and the present publication are out of print. An extraordinary and surreal artist's book, this edition has been redesigned by the author and includes new illustrations. As new, still encased in shrink wrap. Due to the book's interior being inaccessible I am not able to provide additional images. Extra shipping required for this remarkable book measuring 9 x 13-3/8," 396 pages, please choose Priority Mail.
"This visual encyclopedia of an unknown world written in an unknown language has fueled much debate over its meaning. Written for the information age and addressing the import of coding and decoding in genetics, literary criticism, and computer science, the Codex confused, fascinated, and enchanted a generation. While its message may be unclear, its appeal is obvious: it is a most exquisite artifact. Blurring the distinction between art book and art object, this anniversary edition-redesigned by the author and featuring new illustrations-presents this unique work in a new, unparalleled light. With the advent of new media and forms of communication and continuous streams of information, the Codex is now more relevant and timelier than ever. A special limited and numbered deluxe edition that includes a signed print was also available" the publisher.

Not so much read, but looked at. As it's the most weirdest book ever written. But every page is fascinating and intriguing. Worth looking through at least once
