NAUMAN Bruce (Fort Wayne, Indiana 1941) - WEIDMAN Phil (Alturas (California) 1936) Sacramento, The Art CO., no date [1969], 22.5x15 cm, paperback, 36 numbered leaves [(72) pp.], b/w photographic image by Steve Jongeward on cover. Artist’s book by Phil Weidman in collaboration with Bruce Nauman, entirely illustrated with drawings, b/w photographic images, facsimile of letters and poetry inspired by the image of a “Slant Step”, a kind of footstool bought for 1 $ by Bruce Nauman from a junk shop in Mill Valley, near San Francisco, in 1965. This object became a sort of icon to the artists and students gravitating around Nauman, so much so that in 1966 the poet and playwright William Witherup organised for a co-op gallery in San Francisco the exhibition “The Slant Step Show”. Bruce Nauman, William Wiley, Robert Hudson, William Allen, Jim Melchert and others seventeen artists paid homage to the “Slant Step” creating works in metal, plaster, bread, coloured plastic, silk and other materials. The photograph on cover depict a man lying down, bare-chested, wearing Nauman’s “Slant Step” on his head; this “object-sculpture”, described among the works exhibited during his first solo exhibition (Los Angeles, Nicholas Wilder Gallery, in 1966), is presently in the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art collection. The book includes an interview of Frank Owen to Bruce Nauman and contributions by Ron Peetz, Dorothy Wiley, Bill Allan, William Witherup, William T. Wiley, Jack Edwards, Robert Leach, Richard C., Jack Ogden, Lawrence Dean Phillips, Peter Saul, Ray Johnson, Peetz, Jack Fulton and Steve Kaltenbach. Unspecified print run. First edition. …
