Happy 6th Birthday, Folio!
Here's a spiffy new video teaser to celebrate the first published catalog survey of my artwork.
Keith Lo Bue's Folio Edition documents work from each year of making, from 1989 to 2006, In 24 full-color plates. Lavishly packaged in a sleek matte-black embossed folio case. Measuring 6" x 8.25" (21 x 14.8cm), each plate has a postcard back listing information about the work.
Rounding out the publication is an eight page booklet of notes and anecdotes about the selected pieces, providing a rich perspective on the artist's creative methods and thought processes.
The folio in addition is equally at home on your shelf of art books, for giving as a gift, or for sending individually as large postcards.
On this, the sixth anniversary of the folio's publication, the price has been cut in half from $50 to $24.99. To order:
