10 works

Paris: Yvon Lambert, [1971, per OCLC]. Artist's book. 82 unumbered pp. Tan paper covers.17.1 x 11 cm. Following the title page, the book is divided into 10 8-page sections. Each section features an English phrase on the first recto and its French equivalent on the verso, e.g.: "under and over" / "dessous et dessus"; following this are three more pairs of variants: "over and under", "and under and over", "and over and under." In effect, it amounts to 10 conceptual sculptures in the medium of words on pages. There is no limitation notice, but the edition must have been small. The previous owner's elegant ink signature inside the front cover. The cover is (truncated) darker and warmer than the scan, at least on my screen. **Free domestic shipping with direct order.
