This artist's book reproduces 60 "print-painting" works by Wade Guyton, in which he layers reproductions from books and art magazines, tweaking the act of stacking into a painterly gesture. The pile of pictures and magazine snippets on the first page grows ever smaller as the pages are turned, leading the reader through the titular big picture: a book reenactment of Guyton's "print-painting" process.
