Tokyo: Galerie Watari 1980. An extremely rare suite of four woodblock prints all numbered and signed by Sol LeWitt 1928-2007. These prints were finely executed on Echizen-Kizuki-Hosho paper by the Adachi Institute in an edition of 40 copies 10 A.P. The same year Shizuko Watari's Galerie Watari also published a scarce LeWitt artist's book with a slightly shortened title All Four Part Combinations of Six Geometric Figures. Both publications coincided with the artist's exhibition at Watari's gallery which opened 1 March 1980. Boldly printed in blue black red and yellow our set of this print suite features a circle square triangle and rhombus matching the combination of shapes of 1980.08 in the catalogue raisonné see below. Based on the portfolio title there are probably four distinct shape combinations with 10 copies printed of each. The portfolio and the four prints are in pristine condition in the publisher's original cardboard enclosure and slipcase. Unrecorded by WorldCat.

1929ref. 22389Paris: Black Sun Press 1929. First edition. One of 150 copies printed. Minkoff A25. Presentation copy inscribed by the publisher Harry Crosby to his father: "SVRC Stephen Van Rensselaer Crosby from Harry" with an accompanying sketch of his personalized sun symbol and the Black Sun Press's emblem. "In August Harry Crosby delivered one hundred and fifty copies of 1450-1950 to Brown who quickly sent most of them on to publishers and friends sixty of whom he listed opposite the title page under the heading "Free Copies." In return Brown hoped for a few kind words that might be useful in reviving a writing career that had been quiescent for close to fifteen years. 1450-1950 is an amusing mixture of ideography and calligraphy examples of which Brown had been amassing - with obvious pleasure - for many years. "I like looking back / at the / Illuminated manuscripts of / 1450 / And forward / to the / more Illuminations / Movie Scripts of / 1950 I like to see / Fly Specks / on yellowed pages / I like too / Leaving my own on / New ones / My Fly Speck." In his dedication to "all monks all early oriental artists . . . " Brown playfully attempted to locate his work in the history of innovative printing and himself among those authors celebrated as much for their matter as for their manner of expression. By early fall he had gathered a garland of testimonials from among others Gertrude Stein H. L. Mencken and William Carlos Williams." Harry Crosby was found dead in his New York studio on December 10th 1929 evidently a casualty of a suicide pact: in one hand he held a pistol and in his other arm his twenty year old lover Josephine Noyes Rotch Bigelow also dead of a bullet to the temple. - Hugh Ford Published In Paris N. Y.: Macmillan 1975 p. 200- 210. On the same day Crosby had made his last entry in his diary: "One is not in love unless one desires to die with one's beloved. There is only one happiness it is to love and to be loved." When Jonathan Williams reissued 1450-1950 as Jargon 29 in 1959 the publisher observed: "That it should take him JW thirty years to locate a copy of Bob Brown's utterly charming and singular book is a measure of the almost cultish regard 1450-1950 has commanded from its contemporaries. If you didn't own a copy you were automatically cast into either of the modern outer darknesses then beginning to pullulate: Squaresville or Beat City. The virtues of 1450-1950 are publicly attested by many luminaries on the back cover blurb - among them Geltte Burgess who invented the word blurb." Among those quoted on the back cover are Gertrude Stein Marcel Duchamp Carl Van Vechten William Carlos Williams Carl Sandburg Walter Lowenfels James Johnson Sweeney Gelett Burgess Stuart Davis and Caresse Crosby who wrote to Brown: "We show your book to everyone who comes to the house and they always find some page that so especially delights them that soon we will have to chain it down like an ancient missal.

ref. 54371Belgrade: Galerija SKC 1971. Quarto 30.5 × 21 cm. Original blind-stamped folder with transparent title page; 32 plates on glossy card stock. Folder with slight signs of wear; preface with a few highlighter marks; else very good. First and only edition of the extremely rare catalog of the first two important international exhibitions of conceptual art in Yugoslavia which saw participation by renowned artists such as Robert Barry Joseph Beuys Daniel Buren Sol LeWitt and Lawrence Weiner. In April 1971 the exhibition "At the Moment" was shown in Zagreb and then continued in Belgrade under the title "In Another Moment". In Zagreb the exhibition of works by 16 international artists and 3 artist groups did not take place in a prestigious museum or gallery space not even in a white cube but in the gateway of an ordinary apartment building on a busy street in the old town. Three photographic images in the catalog document this simple inconspicuous gateway on the "Day before exhibition" "Day of the exhibition" and "Day after exhibition". The catalog makes it impressively clear that the choice of location was itself conceptual in its randomness and simplicity by placing the photographs prominently at the beginning. Apart from this seemingly random driveway the pictures show nothing more than passers-by and on the day of the exhibition a somewhat larger group of visitors and a VW Beetle driving past. The foreword by Nena Dimitrrijević also begins with the sentence "An international exhibition organized in a hall-gate of an ordinary apartment house ." Last but not least the aim was to desacralize art. The works were to be literally removed from their pedestals and taken out of the temple of art and onto the street. The "conception were the negation of the gallery as a constant and 'consacrated' exhibition space" according to the introduction. The duration of the exhibition was also unusual. The works were only shown for three hours. Although the Belgrade continuation took place in a gallery a disruption of conventions was also built into this location. The exhibition was interrupted twice to create new constellations. The crucial point however was that it was not the curators or artists who were responsible for the rearrangement but one member of the technical team in each case. In this way the two exhibition organizers Nena and Braco Dimitrijević continued the working principle of conceptual art of delegating as many steps as possible in order to interrupt the fetishization of art and the continuity of the work with the artist. The door was literally opened to chance. The present catalog also continues this concept. Instead of the usual bound book pages the catalog consists of loose plates placed in a folder which can be rearranged as desired. Although the plates are numbered on the back they are not arranged according to content but merely alphabetically according to the names of the artists and groups.The cardboard-like plates in the catalog can therefore be placed in relation to each other in a variety of ways. Thanks to the excellent print quality each panel is not merely a reproduction but an individual work in its own right. The folder thus resembles a transportable exhibition that can be rearranged by anyone. The greatest possible flexibility was the declared aim of the two exhibition organizers. Cf.
