ref. 139497Unique foldout Artist Book by Barry McCallion. Fine in fine clamshell box. Signed and dated by the artist on the title page. From the colophon: "Excerpts from Kim Rudyard Kipling's novel occupy the recto pages of this book. The verso pages begin as a large emply circle where page after page images slowly accrete by the addition of common objects: a begging bowl prayer beads an arrow a chair a leaf a cloud. The verso and recto pages face each other developing and advancing as consectutive narratives one visual and the other verbal. I used Richard de Bas cream wove paper for the endpapers and white Rives BFK paper for the text block. The drawings are made with India ink pens and brushed Winsor Newton metallic inks and colors. The book has forty-five text pages and forty-five image pages. Rhonda Miller of myhandboundbooks in Halifax Nova Scotia bound the book in a simple brown leather cover. B McCallion 2013" From the artist's website: "Barry McCallion was born in the Bronx New York and received degrees from Columbia University English Literature and Claremont Graduate University Sculpture.
