About this Item
[73] leaves. 4to (296 x 215 mm.), orig. green semi-stiff boards, orig. gray tape over spine. N.p.: "Nov 75." A superb book by Gabriele Schmidt-Heins (b. 1949), filled with painted and stained interventions to every page. Other pages have been carefully cut or torn one leaf has been intentionally torn in half and then re-attached with tape. Much of the book contains boldly drawn shapes and compositions and towards the end gradually turns to subtler manipulations of the leaves. This is a remarkable example of the twins intense exploration of the book form, in fine condition. ? For other examples of the twins bookworks from this period see Barbara Schmidt-Heins & Gabriele Schmidt-Heins, eds., Buchwerke: Original-Bücher 1972 bis 1976 (Kunstraum München: 1976).
