A collectable object under the disguise of an exhibition catalog, Hello! includes critical texts and illustrated pages, yet the book possess a conceptual and almost sculptural valence determined by its own volume and consistency. The artist has inserted 280 blank pages into the body of the book so as to give it the weight of his MacBook Air, ironically redrawing and subverting its practical utility.
