‘artists who make pieces, artists who do books’ from the cutting book series with ed rushca, 2008

noriko ambe is a japanese artist now living in new york. her work is primarily created by cutting precise
holes in books, magazines and other varieties of bound paper. these cuts result in artwork which
resembles topographic maps. some of the pieces are sculptural, keeping the original book form,
while others are more like relief sculptures. she is currently on show in a number of group exhibitions
and will be starting many new shows this fall.
