About this Item
18 leaves, printed in red and black on rectos only. Loose sheets (14.5 x 20.5 cm), enclosed in printed envelope (the latter badly torn across lower panel). A properly deaccessioned institutional duplicate, with small stamp on blank verso of first sheet. First edition of the publication associated with Bory's first gallery exhibition, published the same year as his first book, BIENTÔT LE LIVRE. In the fashion of his explorations of visual and concrete poetry, Bory here employs a selection of numerals, mathematics symbols and dingbats to generate a sequence of visual poems. Bory collaborated closely with Sarenco, Julien Blaine, Paul de Vree, and many of the artists associated with the International Group of Visual Poetry. A pencil note records earlier provenance of this copy to the library of Bory's future publisher, James Laughlin (ONCE AGAIN: CONCRETE POETRY, New Directions, 1968). Seller Inventory # WRCLIT88702
