About the Author
Michael G. LaFosse, origami artist and paper maker, has been practicing the art of paper folding for more than 25 years. His work has been featured in books, films, and designer's displays, and is exhibited in galleries and museums across the country. LaFosse and Richard Alexander, of Alexander, Blace & Company, recently opened the Origamido Studio gallery in Haverhill, Massachusetts.
Reviews
Paper sculpture includes three-dimensional figures made by folding (origami), assembly (glued), or molded pulp (papier mache). This collection compiled by LaFosse, an origami artist and teacher, brings together projects by a dozen artists. Each project has step-by-step instructions with excellent color photographs and an idea gallery of photos of finished items by artists who work with paper. A directory of artists is included. This is a good source book for ideas and techniques.

Sculpting with paper: There are seemingly endless ways to transform paper into three-dimensional artwork. To help you understand some of the common approaches to making paper art, however, the artists' demonstrations and galleries in "Paper Art" are organized into three basic categories - folded paper, assembled paper, and working from pulp - that are briefly described in the following pages. These categories help to characterize each of the artist's work; they attempt to describe how the artists sees themselves in the context of paper art. Most of the paper artists in the book, however, draw on a combination of the different paper sculpting techniques to make inspiring artwork that is truly their own.
