About this Item
Perfect bound magazine, screen printed cover in purple, gold and black with yellow paper wrap around. 309 x 203mm, 34pp. Edition of 300. Cover screenprint by Jan Voss and Guido Biasi; the inside of the back cover features a tipped-in fold out serigraph by René Bertholo. Issue 9 focuses on 'crowd' and includes photographs, comic streeps, reproductions of paintings including those of Cy Twombly and Christo, screenprints by , Lourdes Castro, and Paul Wunderlich, and texts by Guido Biasi, Benjamin Patterson, Jan Voss, Guido Biasi, George Noël, Carl László, François Dufrêne, and Jean Jaques Levêque. The KWY group were based in Paris and founded in 1958 by Rene Bertholo and Lourdes Castro. The name KWY came about as the letters K, W and Y were officially (but only temporarily) removed from the Portuguese language in 1943 as they were so rarely used, and thus reflected the artists own feelings of marginalisation from Portuguese culture. Condition: loose binding, as usual for these magazines, small ding to top left and bottom right corner noticable to some pages, yellow wrap around included in two parts. All screen printed pages fresh and beautifully printed as ever. Seller Inventory # 68769291
