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.

2006réf. 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

2007réf. 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.

2008réf. 9780Newark VT: Janus Press 2008. Original Wrappers. Fine binding. Quarto. 65 3 pp. illus specimens. Limited edition one of 200 numbered copies. Letterpress printed from polymer plates on Finale paper the last paper made at Hayle Mill. Longstitch binding in wrappers with printed paper title label on the front cover. Housed in a clamshell box containing a letterpress printed three color map of "Loose Valley 1856 with the Mills on Loose Stream"; a portfolio with 19 photographs reprinted from the Hayle Mill Archives; and a portfolio of sample papers. A fine copy. This remarkable work of scholarship delves into the history of papermaking in Kent along the Loose Stream and the history of this particular firm started by John Pine and sold before a decade had passed to John Green whose descendants would remain at the helm generation after generation until it closed in 1987. At which time it was the "last industrial handmade mill of its kind in commercial operation in Britain" p. 60. But this book is so much more: to look at the care and presentation of this history it is as much an ode to paper and papermaking as it is a mere history. Van Vliet is an artist whose relationship with paper is distinctive among her peers-from her pulp painting and paper making to the fact that most all the books from the Janus Press are bound in thoughtfully designed paper bindings the structure of many being her own invention paper is part of every design aspect. The 16th century epigraph speaks volumes: "I prayse the man that first did paper make the only thing that sets all vertues forth: It shoes newe bookes and keepes old workes awake much more of price than all this world is worth. . . ." It's fitting that this history is printed on paper from the Hayle Mill with a watermark specially designed by Van Vliet for the final paper made at the mill. Janus Press unknown
réf. 9779Newark VT: Janus Press 2018. Original Wrappers. Fine binding. Quarto. 2 24 ll. illus. Limited edition of one hundred numbered copies. Signed by Dawes and Gregg at the colophon. In a glued leaf binding in printed Canal paper covers. Gregg's drawings have been digitally printed here with Dawes's holographic poems letterpress printed from polymer plates around the drawings. Accompanying this is a smaller french-fold chapbook printed with matching foliation all housed in clamshell with maple wood sides in a slipcase with printed paper label. A fine copy. The chapbook offers a transcription of the holographic poems in the main work-though Dawes's handwriting is plenty legible. Additionally a short "Poet's Note" at the beginning of this chapbook describes his process of writing these poems in response to Gregg's drawings of Vallarta. He writes: "The poems collected here represent the most exciting part of making poems for me which is writing the first draft in that breakneck pace of someone in search of what a poem is offering and doing so with faith that it will eventually reveal itself to me." And of this particular collection of poems Dawes makes a fascinating observation: "I write to understand how I have been moved by the art." A beautiful idea searching for understanding through writing. A wonderful and accidental or perhaps inspired collaboration between the founder of the Vermont Studio Center and the Ghanaian poet.
