In each installment of her "Sorted Books" project (1993 and ongoing), Katchadourian scours an individual's or institution's bookshelves in search of titles that, when stacked in sequence, form short phrases, stories, poems, or commentary. Her subjects have included the artist Isamu Noguchi, the writers William S. Burroughs and August Strindberg, and several personal friends.
