1964réf. 362757Milan: Galleria Schwartz 1964. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine. A twenty-image gallery of original engravings printed from plates made in 1962 the defining year of American Pop Art by the defining artists of the era including Andy Warhol his first multiple Roy Lichtenstein Wayne Thiebaud Jim Dine and others. These etchings are presented in book format with each artwork bound into the book in a mat with a clear plastic protector. Usually these images are four removed from the book. However in your cataloguer's most humble opinion this book presentation is far superior to looking at individual images hanging on a wall. The intimate presentation of the book and the alphabetical sequencing which requires patience to find the famous works leads to unexpected discoveries. And the excitement of having a Warhol you can set on your lap is a real joy. For this issue of the International Anthology of Contemporary Engraving the editors commissioned the hottest young artists on the American scene to make engravings for this book mostly in 1962 for publication two years later. The highlight is Roy Lichtenstein's etching of a light switch. Wayne Thiebaud adapted a painting of yo-yos shifting the placement of the toys for this black-and-white medium. Andy Warhol appropriated an ad for a discount cooking pot that he found on page 35 of the October 16 1962 New York Daily News and made it visually interesting through clever cropping the ad may have appeared on other days as well but I found it first on October 16 and I stopped looking. These engravings were issued in an edition of 100 copies: 60 numbered with Arabic numerals 25 numbered with Roman numerals for the contributors and 15 artist's proofs marked "e.a." for "épreuve d'artiste." The mats measure 9 by 11-3/4 inches plus the binding stub. This bound volume includes 8 leaves two blank for text with all contents presented in English as well as French and Italian translation. The introduction is by Billy Klüver who worked with Andy Warhol. The original etchings presented in this volume are all signed by the artist with the exception of the Warhol which is blindstamped.

1992réf. 153831Paris: Les Éditions du Solstice 1992. Ten etchings signed by Lichtenstein First edition first printing number 24 of 80 copies signed by Lichtenstein and Ginsberg on the limitation page from a total edition of 125; each print is initialled lower right by Lichtenstein numbered lower left. In 1991 Lichtenstein was approached to provide illustrations for a French edition of Allen Ginsberg's The New Fall of America. Ginsberg selected 11 poems to be translated into French and Lichtenstein created 10 collages inspired by them from which etchings were printed for the book. The imagery is characteristic of Lichtenstein's work in popular illustrations. "The image of Ginsberg as a Buddha in a lotus pose for instance was inspired by a vignette symbolizing meditation on a yoga class sheet. Cubistic visions of the city and emblems of explosions alternate with more peaceful landscapes to provide a visual counterpart to Ginsberg's vivid evocation of contemporary America" Morgan Library and Museum. Folio. 10 coloured etching and aquatints on 250 gsm Velin d'Arches paper. Sheet sizes: Approx 48 x 35.4 cm. Image sizes: Approx 37.5 x 27.8 cm.
