Softcover. White dj with monochrome illustration and black text, white wraps with red and black text. 29 pp. and many unnumbered bw plates. Presentation copy from the artist (signed) to noted collectors with scarce dustjacket. "A work of art cannot be defined rationally. Describing it is almost tantamount to betraying it. It escapes as soon as we try to confine it to formulas. There is only one way to understand it: to let ourselves be penetrated by it and to know it through sympathy. A Pevsner sculpture, even if we ignore the intention of its author, exists outside of any intellectual interpretation as a work of art with its autonomy, its essence, and self-sufficiency. We look at it, and this feeling of fullness that comes to us from it is unmistakable. It is the indisputable sign of beauty. " - translated from introduction. Good, red sticker on spine, dj with considerable wear, staining, tearing at edges. Inner wraps have foxing, pages are good with some marks on opposite pages from printed illustrations.
