240 pp.; 28 x 22 cm.; sewn bound; black-and-white; edition size unknown; unsigned and unnumbered; offset-printed Originally published in 1975, this collection of Donald Judd's writings is a sought-after classic. His uncompromising reviews avoid the familiar generalizations so often associated with artistic styles emerging during the 1950s and 60s. Here, Judd discusses in detail the work of more than 500 artists showing in New York at that time, and provides a critical account of this significant era in American art. While addressing the social and political ramifications of art production, the writings focus on the work of Jackson Pollock, Kasimir Malevich, Barnett Newman, Ad Reinhardt, John Chamberlain, Larry Poons, Kenneth Noland, and Claes Oldenburg. His 1965 "Specific Objects" essay, discussions of sculptural thought in the 60s, is included as well as Judd's notorious polemical essay, "Imperialism, Nationalism, Regionalism." Very Good. Light dusting of covers with 2.5 cm. and 6 mm. light soiling to recto and very light bumping of bottom edge of publication. 3 mm. tear to top edge of page 163, contents otherwise clean and unmarked. Due to size and weight of this publication additional shipping charges will be required for international orders.

134 pp.; 29.2 x 22.5 cm.; glue bound; black-and-white; edition size unknown; unsigned and unnumbered; offset-printed Twelve transcribed dialogues between Carl Andre and Hollis Frampton. Edited and annotated by Benjamin H.D. Buchloh. Appendix photographs by Hollis Frampton of works by Carl Andre 1958 - 1963. Includes index, autobiographies and bibliographies. "Except to delete two sentences of personal reference, I have not altered my share of these dialogues. That is not to say that my opinions have remained unchanged. Quite the opposite is true. In fact most of my opinions have just dropped away over the course of the years. It is a good thing, in principle, to declare your interests and these were the interests of Carl Andre at age 24. Friedel Dzubas once remarked that as he grew older he became more demanding and more tolerant at the same time. I think the same is happening to me." -- Carl Andre, New York, 1979. Very Good. 3 cm. of bumping to bottom left corner of publication, light rubbing of dust jacket edges, light dusting of covers, and light yellowing of pages. Contents clean and unmarked.

Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. Michael Snow; Keith Lock & Vince Sharp (illustrateur). 1st Edition. First Edition (NAP). This book contains the fairly rare tipped-in translucent title half-sheet (which is in excellent condition). The first printing soft cover edition was apparently simultaneously published with the cloth edition. The pages are unnumbered, several sellers have referenced there being over 300 pages. There is no text, every page is a black and white photograph. You can see the covers in the photos. They are mostly clean, with one little spot on the front. There is a very thin crease on the spine and a little wear at both spine ends. Part of the publisher's name near the bottom of the spine is rubbed off (the top half of the letters in 'Nova' and the word 'Press'). The binding is solid throughout. The covers are nicely tight. The pages are exceptionally clean. I haven't found any soiling at all. There's no conspicuous creasing, no placeholder creases. There are no markings. No attachments. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. 'A man walks into a room and puts a vinyl record on a turntable. He goes outside, gets into his car, drives to a gallery and picks up a book. That, on one level, is what happens in Michael Snow's photobook Cover to Cover. It's also a meta-book that makes unique use of the medium. And it can be read backwards or forwards. Snow made Cover to Cover as a book artwork in 1975, shortly after his film Two Sides to Every Story (1974), the product of two cameramen filming each other from opposite sides of a room, was completed. The book deploys a similar conceit: the actions described are photographed simultaneously from two opposing angles, so that on one side of the page we see, for example, a door, and on the other the back of the man standing just on the other side of that door. The back-to-back setup gives flipping through the book a physical playfulness: at one point, facing off from two sides of a typewriter, the page you're holding becomes a doubled embodiment of a blank page (both representationally and literally); at another, we see the corner of a sitting room, the opposite side facing in towards the ivy-tangled outside of that part of the house, the page somehow becoming a brick wall. The book makes no bones about disclosing the process of its making; at several points the photographers capture each other from across a room or a street. It all might sound like a neat little spiral snake eating its own tail, a conceptual gotcha, but as soon as you begin to recognize and settle into a pattern, the book shifts again, turning what you think you're seeing inside out. Cover to Cover instructs you in how to read it as you go, asking you to digest inversions and sly twists, as well as literally turning the book upside down. Images you thought were simply showing you what was going on become photographs that get folded up or enclosed into a book within the book.' 'Michael James Aleck Snow was a Canadian artist who worked in a range of media including film, installation, sculpture, photography, and music. His best-known films are Wavelength (1967) and La Région Centrale (1971), with the former regarded as a milestone in avant-garde cinema. Snow is considered one of the most influential experimental filmmakers of all time.'.
