Abstract
This article offers a
philosophical overview of conceptual art. I argue that, since the project Transgressions and
boundaries of the page transgresses and conceptually extends the boundaries of the concept of
the book, it can be viewed in its entirety as a language-based installation art, consisting of
various components, viz. artists’ books. Due to its interdisciplinary nature, this conceptual art
installation challenges the boundaries of conceptual art. The project and exhibitions confirm
that artists’ books constitute an ideal medium to involve artists from divergent disciplines
in the play with and discovery of the possibilities of the book. The project as a whole can be
categorised as conceptual art, as it reconsiders, reinvents and theorises the concept book
