1597Best.-Nr. 70284Lugduni Batavorum: ex officina Plantiniana apud Franciscum Raphelengium 1597. 4to pp. 16 695 17; collating: â´ 4 A-Zâ´ a-3uâ´; printer's woodcut device on title page; woodcut initials; text in double column; contemporary full limp parchment with extensive ink notation on upper cover and titling on spine; early ownership inscription at the bottom of the title page of Zanius Dacier dated 1602. The cover notes quote Martin Marie Charles de Boudens Vanderbourg who edited an edition of Horace in 1812 so this quote likely dates to after 1812. The complete annotated Horace by the humanist Cruquius 1520-1584 who was Latin schoolmaster at Bruges. The 'commentator vetus' known as Commentator Cruquianus "is a collection of scholia published by Cruquius from various mss. notably the four codices blandinii which were destroyed by fire in 1566 with the Benedictine abbey Blandigny near Ghent" OCLC. "'Cruquius' says Dr. Harwood 'is deservedly esteemed one of the best commentators on Horace. Consult the notes in these editions on any of the difficult passages in Horace and you will have your doubts satisfactorily solved.' Barthius and Tanaquil Faber think but slightly of Cruquius: they observe and in this observation Mitscherlich seems to concur that he has performed little more than the old commentators Acro and Porphyrio. Harles thinks that Cruquius is not equal to Lambinus in research ingenuity and general critical knowledge: yet Baxter has not scrupled to call Lambinus Cruquius and Torrentius the 'tria Horatii lumina'" Dibdin.

2010Best.-Nr. 12966Newark Vermont: Janus Press 2010. No. 67 of 150 copies signed by the artist. A large scale drawing with written text by Peter Schumann printed offset in duotones over 20 pages in an accordian format.

Bound accordian style by Audrey Holden in linen buckram with endpapers of Barcham Green India Office paper titled in black. A very good copy.Schumann’s splendid drawing illustrates the words “And all of a sudden Helios’s horses rear up with neighing trombones and bright coloured fog.” The drawings depict people in an eternal fog which is explained by Schumann’s words at the end of the book which reference our “petrified inequalities” and ends with a critique of ‘public deformation’ and ‘the more more more officers open a new office for the regulated distribution of the more more more/they are in charge of the not so subtle unevenness of which our system is so proud.". Helios is the second in a series by the Janus Press inspired by the seasons. Janus Press hardcover

Printed dry in black and blue on pulp painting landscape made from kozo gampi and abaca fibers. A fine copy. A beautiful except from Lopez's Arctic Dreams the pulp painting is a inspired illustrations to Lopez's sentiment: "Whatever evaluation we make of a particular stretch of land no matter how accurate or profound it finally proves inadequate. The land retains an identity of its own still deeper and more subtle than we can know. Our obligation toward it then becomes simple: to approach with an uncalculating mind with an attitude of regard. To try to sense the range and variety of its expression-its weather and colors and animals. To intend from the beginning to preserve some of the mystery within it as a king of wisdom to be experienced not questioned. And to be alert for its openings for that moment when something sacred reveals itself within the mundane and you know the land knows you are there." Fine Janus Press - Fifty Years p. 46.

2006Best.-Nr. 10457Newark VT: Janus Press 2006. Broadside. Broadside. 22-1/2" x 15." Edition unknown. Collage broadside with a facsimile of the U.S. Constitution on a cream laid paper across which is laid the printed line: "It's just a goddamned piece of paper!" Beneath the facsimile is a description. A fine copy or nearly so. This was printed by Van Vliet and Ellen Dorn Levitt at the Janus Press for the 219th Anniversary of the signing of the Constitution. It relays an unfortunate outburst by then President George W. Bush in an Oval Office meeting between Republican Congressional leaders discussing the renewal of the USA Patriot Act in November of 2005. And while this was a moment in time the sentiment remains relevant in terms of the continued degradation of the founding document in the subsequent decade. Janus Press unknown

2007Best.-Nr. 9781Newark VT: Janus Press 2007. Wrappers. Fine binding. Oblong octavo. 26 ll. illus. Limited edition one of 150 numbered copies. Van Vliet's woven strip binding contains 12 printed leaves alternating with 14 illusion polycarbonate and flexible vinyl leaves all laid into a vinyl wrapper and housed in acrylic slipcase. Some of the vinyl leaves have started to break down their oils leaching into and discolor the paper leaves an unexpected and according to Van Vliet perfectly fitting result. This book is referential of the author's earlier Hermetic Waste Gefn Press 1986 that was issued the summer after the Chernobyl disaster. She writes in an artist statement: "The collagraph prints in Hermetic Waste were derived from alchemical engravings - here in Waste Incant the calligraphic line drawings are derived from science illustrations in children's text books. Redrawn and merging the pictorial 'facts' depict a disrupted 'nature.' Poetic texts sit inside the imagery functioning as an integrated caption. They describe processes by which toxic material enters into the environment. The back of each page lists hazardous wastes. Plastic interleaving features in both books referencing materials used in the storage of waste. How little has changed in twenty years." In her Grolier Club catalog to the collection of Robert J. Rubin Yvonne Korshak echoes and expands Johanknecht's statement of Waste Incant: "The book in its acrylic case is a statement about the storage of nuclear waste in plastic. The line drawings are derived from children's textbooks redrawn to show a disrupted nature. The toxic wastes listed partially alphabetically are printed on both sides of the embossed paper each page separated by a plastic sheet. The unstable and hence inappropriate and hazardous use of plastic to contain toxic waste is emphasized by the diverse deformations of each of the plastic sheets. "How fascinating that the book is immaculate and glamorous while its topic - waste - implies what's dirty and distasteful. The ironic disjunction dramatizes the tension between the allure of easy labor magical communications and other seductions of our high tech culture and the tarnished other side of the coin deadly byproducts with tenacious half-lives. The book uses the very products it condemns. We can't do without it can we" Yvonne Korshak and Robert J. Rubin. Beyond the Text: Artists' Books from the Collection of Robert J. Ruben.
