The Art of Cutting

"When people think of the art of cutting, what initially comes to mind is paper being cut, never imagining that this technique is so widespread and can literally be applied to any medium. Jean-Charles Trebbi is not only a fabulous artist, but also a relentless art lover, who shares his passion in his elegant book The Art of Cutting . Page after page this beautifully illustrated book takes us on a journey through this unusual world of cut art that is astonishing not only by its diversity, but also by the fact that his book brings together so many artists united by a similar technique, but unique in their interpretation. Anybody who shares Jean-Charles contagious passion for art and for beautifully crafted books will truly enjoy The Art of Cutting ."

“Jean-Charles Trebbi is back with another inspirational design odyssey. The subject this time is – literally – cutting-edge design. The book is an all-singing, all-dancing exploration of cutting-based form and function - the tools and techniques used to cut a variety of materials, plus examples of artisan-designed end products. Taken with his other Promopress titles, The Art of Pop-Up, and The Art of Folding, it looks like M. Trebbi is working towards a design theory of everything.” Susan Janes, The Papercraft Post.
