Something comes of nothing, after all
To launch its new art project Global: Local, Chronicle Books made an unusual choice: sponsoring Untitled, an exhibit of blank books. Some explanation: The show is a collaboration with the hipsters at Citizen: Citizen and concerns, as Chronicle puts it, "book-like objects" created from the mock-ups publishers use to preview their products before they go to press. The results are curiously beautiful, totally unique, and (naturally) available for purchase.
Untitled, tonight through May 10, Chronicle Books, 680 Second St., San Francisco, (415) 537-4283, chroniclebooks.com
