Trifolio
Hardcover. Offset-printed book. Edition of 200. Signed by the artist.

"Commissioned to work on an artist's book for the Library Council, Guillermo Kuitca filled a sketchbook with oil paintings that run across each spread. Pintura sin muros shows sixty-four of those paintings, abstractions evoking the palette and structural system of Analytical Cubism and recalling a set of early-twentieth-century modernist motifs that the artist calls 'cubistoid'.

"The book was offset- and silkscreen-printed and hand-bound by Trifolio, Verona, Italy ... Each copy of the edition of two hundred is signed and numbered, including twenty copies reserved for the artist and one hundred for the members of the Library Council. Additionally, each of a deluxe edition of twenty-six copies is signed and lettered a to z ... Each copy of the deluxe edition comprises one book and one hand-painted photogravure ... Guillermo Kuitca painted each photogravure in oil in New York in the fall of 2015"--Colophon.
