Socrates, Epicurus or Just a Stack of Phone Books?

I cannot recall if this is Socrates or Epicurus?
Saw this over the weekend at an artist's studio.
These are stacks of phone books sculpted like wood.
And you can flip the pages as you would a phone book.
Cool eh? The price for this one? Ten oh-oh-oh!
There are a lot more sculptures, some of them taller than me.
I am excited to see this on exhibit.
It's best seen in 360 degrees! Natch!
