About this Item
Bas Jan Ader, The Boy who fell over Niagara Falls, Paul Andriesse, Amsterdam, 1992. 240 x 170mm. 36pp. Softcover, staple bound, black & white. The book records Jan Ader s 1972 two-week performance of the story, originally published in Readers Digest, at the Art & Project Gallery in Amsterdam. The text - accompanied by images of the artist at the reading - reflects Jan Ader s central, hauntingly proleptic motifs of falling, loss, and bodies of water, just 3 years before the artist was himself lost at sea. This is a pristine copy from the first edition of 500 copies, in fine condition. Seller Inventory # 68770493
