Item description from seller

15 x 21cm 36pp very good card-covered catalogue, a facsimile edition of the 1970 artist book by David Lamelas. It features contributions from thirteen international artists and critics who the artist chose due to their relationship to language-based practices. Produced from conversations with these fellow artists and writers, Publication collects their responses to three statements provided by Lamelas: 1. Use of oral and written language as an Art Form. 2. Language can be considered as an Art Form. 3. Language cannot be considered as an Art Form. The texts range from pragmatic to humorous to philosophical. Publication was the primary work in Lamelas 1970 exhibition at Nigel Greenwood s gallery in London; copies of the volume were displayed as a roundtable installation with the intention that visitors would continue the types of discussions within the book. David Lamelas is an Argentine artist. A pioneer of Conceptual art, he was involved in Argentina's avant-garde scene in the 1960s. Well known for his sculptures and films, Lamelas lives and works between Los Angeles, Buenos Aires, and Europe.Comes with a typed letter which accompanied the catalogue. Sent from the Galerie Gisela Capitain, Koln, addressed to Judy Adam. …
