From the Jonathan A. Hill Bookseller Website:
Our second catalogue on the Mexican artist Ulises Carrión (1941-89), offering 58 items for sale, including manuscripts, rare bookworks, exhibition ephemera, etc. A number of the materials come from the collection of Guy Schraenen (1941-2018).
In her Substack review of the catalogue, Johanna Drucker writes: “The catalogue is an exquisitely produced collection of facsimiles of the materials the bookseller is managing. The care with which the presentation has been put together and the production values in design, printing, photography, and expertly meticulous cataloguing make it an exemplary piece for study…Finally, the value of this catalogue is not only in its presentation of the work of a much-respected artist, but in the preservation of the fabric of culture, of aesthetics, of artistic communities and lives.”
As new. Edition of 500 copies. Designed by Flat Fix and printed by KOPA in Lithuania.
