This publication started as an article and a list of about 80 artists' books which appeared in 1970 in the first issue of the Italian magazine Arte.

Scope and Contents At the time of this exhibition in 1981, no one was paying attention to the ways in which visual artists were using sound, yet everyone was vaguely aware of it.
