Item description from seller

No place, self-published, 1998, approx. 400 blank leaves, text on book edge in purple and blue felt marker, first free endpaper with circular name-stamp in purple ink "Frans Baake" and numbered "1/5" in pencil and signed and dated "’98", between thick board covers covered with blue buckram cloth, oblong A4 (22 x 30,3 cm.). = A whole pack of paper, titled on the bookblock edges: "weight" in purple marker on upper and lower edges and "wait" in blue marker on outer edge. During his travels, Frans Baake makes sketches, photos and notes. The journey is then translated into a work of art, namely an artist's book, which he publishes himself in a small edition. In artists' books, the image usually dominates. The countless artist books that Baake has made are full of photos, woodcuts, linocuts, screenprints, collages and texts. The books are not literally about his travels and are therefore not comparable to the way we make our photo album or diary after a holiday. Baake’s way of working is similar in general: he prepares for his voyage, at the actual trip he will make drawings, writings, photographs; in his studio back home these together with his thoughts and ideas will be transformed into books, prints, sketches, portfolios, articles.
