Wikipedia in print

I’m not sure if it qualifies as an art project or insanity, but for the past three years Michael Mandiberg has been printing out all the entries in Wikipedia.  It comes to about 7,600 volumes, and it is exhibited at the Denny Gallery on the Lower East Side in New York.

The contributor index alone runs to 36 volumes.  


The entire set will cost about $500,000.  A single volume will be available at Lulu.com for $80.
