Building Built From Thousands of Books

Matej Kren’s is no stranger to amazing feats of book-stacking, and now his largest book installation to date is on display in Italy at the Museum of Modern Art in Bologna (MAMbo). The piece, entitled “Scanner,” is a gigantic tunnel of books that is meant to inspire reflection, impose greatness, and confuse perspective. Decked out with mirrors and thousands of books, “Scanner” gives whole new meaning to judging a book by its cover.
