Ireland, David, Marie-Louise Lienhard

David Ireland in Switzerland [You Can't Make Art by Making Art ..Helmhaus Zürich, 28. Juni bis 4. August 1991, im Rahmen der Junifestwochen]

Zurich: Helmhaus, 1991. First printing. Oblong folio (17 x 12 inches) of photographic stiff cardboard, housing stitched book of 42 unnumbered pages, mainly images, with short text. Light wear to corners and mild rubbing along spine, but very good, contents fine. Ireland, a minimalist architect, conceptual artist and sculptor (d. 2009) rarely exhibited but his house, purchased in 1975, at 500 Capp St., San Francisco, was an artistic work in progress in itself and also the site of several art projects. In 2016 an exhibit of Ireland's work was staged at the Capp St. house. This is an uncommon book, represented in institutions by only a handful of copies. Very Good. Item #H8059

Price: $250.00
