Description:
Cologne., 1968. Screenprinted poster. folded three times with resulting creases.. (85.5 x 59.8 cm).. An important if short-lived institution founded in response to, and against, the second grand Cologne art fair of 1968, was 'Labor e. V. zur Erforschung akustischer und visueller Ereignisse' (Laboratory for the research of acoustic and visual events), initiated by Maurizio Kagel and Wolf Vostell. Labor was founded in order to cross the boundaries between the art forms and media, in other words art, poetry and music, film and video, concept and process art. Authorship was often neglected, and private and semi-public venues replaced cinemas and museums. The 'Labor' group, for example, exhibited for 6 days from the 15-20 October 1968, in the garage under the Kunsthalle in Cologne. The poster is dated and signed by Vostell in the lower right corner.

Description:
Paris.: Galerie J., 1962. (18.3 x 23.8 cm).. Ephemera regarding one of Christo’s first major public art installations. During eight hours on the evening of June 27, 1962, Christo and Jeanne-Claude closed the narrow Rue Visconti in Paris with 89 rusting oil barrels. The art barricade was 13.7 x 13.2 x 2.7 feet (4.2 x 4 x 0.5 meters). The installation was a protest against the Berlin Wall which had been built in August of 1961. A replica wall was built inside Galerie J, located on the corner or rue Clément and rue Montfaucon. Presented here is an original black and white photograph of the installation at Galerie J (18.3 x 23.8 cm), signed and dated June 1962 on the verso by Christo. Photo with tape staining to verso. Added is a copy of the gallery’s original invite to the event of the 17 June 1962 (22.6 x 14.3 cm), in which participants are invited to gather at the gallery at 8pm, and then proceed to walk through the streets of Paris to Christo’s barrel wall at rue Visconti. The invitation…

Description:
Turin.: Self-published by the artist., 1967. Original grey wrappers, stapled.. (18 x 13 cm).. pp. (16). Text only, printed in both Italian and English (English translation by Henry Martin). Pistoletto’s first book, published in an unspecified edition (although only 60 copies were declared by the artist to have been produced). A landmark Arte Povera publication, confirming that writing was not a secondary activity for Pistoletto, but an essential part of his artistic practice. The text is divided into two chapters called ‘La speculazione’ and ‘L’essere’. This concept of the dual self is a theme that has been tackled by a number of contemporary artists worldwide. Pistoletto focused much his artistic career on mirrored works which capture the reflection of the viewer. “Man has always attempted to double himself as a means of attaining self-knowledge” (from ‘Le ultime parole famose’). [Ref. Giorgio Maffei - Libri e documenti. Arte Povera 1966-1980, p. 162; Germano Celant - Book as…

Photo-documentation concerning one of the most experimental and radical American theatre groups. Founded in New York in 1947 by the German-Jewish émigré Judith Malina and the American Julian Beck, the Living Theatre was one of the first theatre ensemble to stage works by European authors such as Bertolt Brecht, Jean Cocteau, Gertrude Stein or T. S. Eliot. Known throughout the 1950s for artistic avant-garde productions, the theatre later became more and more part of the beat and hippie counterculture, and an important focus for the protest movement against the Vietnam War.

Description:
Amsterdam.: Stedelijk Museum., 1969. Colour postcard.. (15 x 10.5 cm).. Throughout 1969, in and around London, Gilbert & George organised numerous presentation as living sculptures (Underneath the Arches, Meeting Sculptures, The Meal, The Singing Sculpture), for which they typically covered their hands and faces in multi-coloured metallic paint to look like bronze statues and simply stood, sang, or moved together for a certain amount of time. On November 22 of 1969, from noon to 5 p.m., Gilbert & George gave their first presentation outside of the UK, on the interior stairs of the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam. ‘Posing on Stairs’ was carried out at the suggestion of Ger van Elk and authorised by curator Wim Beeren, but unannounced to the general public, which was clearly puzzled by the artists’ appearance. This postcard produced to commemorate the performance, shows the artists on the museum’s steps, with George availing himself of the handrail and Gilbert seated on a step. Photograph by Ad…

Brescia.: Paul de Vree & Sarenco., 1975. Original printed wrappers, stapled.. (24.7 x 20.5 cm).. pp. (24). Black-and-white photographic illustrations throughout. This forty-sixth installment of Paul de Vree's art and literature periodical Lotta Poetica is a special monographic issue devoted to Joseph Beuys. Consists of Caroline Tisdall's photographic documentation of Beuys’ 1974 piece ""Three Pots Action in the Poor House"". The photographic front cover in fact illustrates the meeting between Beuys and his friend, the great Greek composer and political activist Mikis Theodorakis, which took place in Berlin in June 1973. This copy has a fine inscription in pencil from Beuys, written across the front cover, presenting this very copy to Theodorakis: “Joseph Beuys für Mikis Theodorakis. Ich war sehr traurig, daß ich nicht in Düsseldorf war als du dein konzert hattest”. (I was so sad, that I was not in Düsseldorf when you had your concert). A remarkable copy with such a dedication.

Berlin.: Situationen 60 Galerie., 1965. Three-part folding leporello of black card, with screenprinted titles in white on recto. Verso with three more tipped-on folding leporellos of black paper, offset printed with text and illustrations.. (21.7 x 21.9 cm), folded.. Folding catalogue brochure produced for the joint exhibition held in Berlin, March - April 1965. Independently of one another, Lucio Fontana in Italy, Hermann Goepfert in Germany and Jef Verheyen in Belgium had begun to postulate monochrome as a new idea in painting, together with the use of real elements, particularly light and motion, as pictorial materials. The intensive artistic exchange between Goepfert, Fontana and Verheyen culminated in 1963, in a collaborative work they exhibited in Berlin. “Untitled"" (1963) by Jef Verheyen, Lucio Fontana and Hermann Goepfert is one of the few collaborative works by several artists of different nationalities after 1945. In 1965, Goepfert went in person to Milan to invite Fontana to a joint…

Description:
Liège.: Yellow Now., 1974. Original wrappers.. (14.1 x 11.2 cm).. pp. (56). With 22 monochrome offset illustrations. For over 40 years, Anne and Patrick Poirier have visited, carried out excavations, collected and inventoried sites and relics from ancient civilizations. This interest in travel and the discovery of world heritage is deeply rooted in their artistic practice. They belong to the first generation of artists who have travelled the world in an attempt to understand the organization of ancient cities, and more particularly, their disappearance. Eschewing the conventional roles of sculptor or painter, they have assumed the mantles of archaeologist and architect, and their work is not so much formal research, as it is a journey through time and human memory. ‘A la Mémoire de Romulus’ is the Poirier’s first artist’s book, published to accompany an exhibition at the Yellow Now gallery in Liège in 1974. Under the auspices of Guy Jungblut, Yellow Now, as well as being a gallery space,…
