Get a load of this unique art! Brian Dettmer isn't your average artist. Rather than painting a portrait or drawing a sketch, he makes his art by intricately carving books using knives, tweezers and any other crafty tools he can find. His work is unlike any other... to say the least. Are you into the detailed book carvings? Or do you think it's kind of pointless?

Artist Brian Dettmer uses surgical tools to carve up old encyclopedias, dictionaries, and medical journals. No materials are added and nothing inside the books are relocated, he simply carves the existing paper, one page at a time.
