The phoenix of Baghdad: An inventory of Al-Mutanabbi Street

Bodman, Sarah L.

Abstract

Book artists are uniting to draw attention, not to their own skill, but to the loss of the lives of fellow book workers when Al-Mutanabbi Street in Baghdad was bombed in 2007. We should celebrate the fact that images still spark powerful emotions and memories, however transient the fame of their creators.
