rif. 1117720 leaves. Small 8vo 178 x 115 mm. orig. black printed dust-jacket perfect-bound. Geneva Switzerland: Ateliers Typographiques Héros-Limite 1995. The very rare second edition of Carrión’s beguiling bookwork composed of bound wallpaper samples one of the artist’s lesser-known books due to its rarity. The 1973 first edition published by the artists’ space In-Out Center was made in an edition of 50 numbered copies. The present work is one of 52 copies 26 of which are lettered A-Z the rest numbered 27 to 52; our copy is no. 42. This book is part of a series of re-publications that Juan J. Agius an executor of Carrión’s estate undertook to replicate the increasingly scarce and fragile bookworks Ulises Carrión 1941-89 created in the 70s. Under the imprint of Editions Héros-Limite in Geneva Agius produced second editions of Mirror Box 1st ed.: 1979 Looking for Poetry / Tras la Poesía 1st ed.: 1973 Arguments 1st ed.: 1973 and the present bookwork. ”In Ulises Carrión’s bookworks the ellipsis of the literary text is accompanied by an ellipsis of the narrative as can be seen in the listing of names or the identification of characters that are not linked by any narrative relationship within a story…In Tell me what sort of wall paper your room has and I will tell you who you are 1973 Carrión cuts out and binds together a set of wallpaper samples typing on them the name of the room in which each will appear. The names start in the first person my room then identify the members of his family and relations my parent’s room my sister’s room my uncle’s room my wife’s room my teacher’s room finally reaching a progressive lack of differentiation of the person to whom the room with the specific wallpaper belongs your room a room …’s room. The subtlety of this bookwork is apparent not only in the readymade of the wallpapers but also in the suggestion of a narrative that does not require a text for its construction: the simple association of the identities of the rooms’ owners in the first person informs us that the narrator has a teacher a wife etc. The progression of these identifications suggests a leaving of the family home to enter the world the framework of so many narratives found in short stories novellas and novels. The new art of making books permits the insinuation of a story without resorting to text or narrative…”–João Fernandes “Art as Subversion: Make and Remake to Make Anew” in Guy Schraenen ed.

rif. 1089086 1 p. 8vo 225 x 155 mm. orig. printed red semi-stiff wrappers title on spine. Cullompton Devon: Beau Geste Press 1973. First edition the deluxe version on vibrant multi-colored Strathmore Grandee paper of this scarce and early Carrión 1941-89 bookwork. Arguments was printed in a total edition of 400 copies 200 on Huntsman white cartridge and unsigned and 200 deluxe copies and signed on the verso of the title-page. Formed in 1970 by Felipe Ehrenberg Martha Hellion David Mayor Chris Welch and Madeleine Gallard the Beau Geste Press was instrumental in Carrión’s growing engagement with artists’ books. The scholar Zanna Gilbert recalls in the Beau Geste Press catalogue p. 405 that in 2017 Ehrenberg “commented that Carrión had never gotten his hands dirty with ink before visiting the Beau Geste Press.” In 1973 the Press published two of his books Arguments Autumn and Looking for Poetry/Tras la Poesía Winter. In the Getty Research Institute exhibition catalogue Artists and Their Books Books and Their Artists 2018 Gilbert describes the present bookwork: “Carrión humorously interrogates the structure and content of books and the literary devices used by authors and playwrights. The titular exchanges in Arguments are indicated only by the names of the participants with no reference to the actual content of their disagreements. The distinctly Anglophone names are arranged in various configurations on each page of the book leaving the reader to wonder about the substance of the disputes. Indeed as the ‘arguments’ play out across the gridded field of the typeset page the book increasingly becomes about the materiality of the text itself with Carrión adding symbols such as the ampersand or violating the names themselves—as when for example ‘Marion’ becomes ‘Mar ion’—resulting in ever more complex exchanges” p. 72. The book was beautifully typeset by Terry Wright a skilled printer who joined the Press in 1972; laid out by Mayor; and offset-printed by Ehrenberg. Each “Argument” is numbered by hand there are 25 in total with several misnumbered and corrected in this copy nos. 5 22 23 24. Carrión’s book concludes with an unnumbered page on translucent paper with the entreaty: “My name is Ulises / What’s yours ” A fine copy; spine a trifle sunned. â§ Alice Motard ed.

The scarce second edition of Ulises Carrión’s famous Arguments 1st ed.: 1973 published by the Beau Geste Press. In the Getty Research Institute exhibition catalogue Artists and Their Books Books and Their Artists 2018 Zanna Gilbert writes about the first edition: “Carrión humorously interrogates the structure and content of books and the literary devices used by authors and playwrights. The titular exchanges in Arguments are indicated only by the names of the participants with no reference to the actual content of their disagreements. The distinctly Anglophone names are arranged in various configurations on each page of the book leaving the reader to wonder about the substance of the disputes.” As new.
