Cranbrook Academy Art Museum, 1981 Published to coincide with an exhibition of the material at the Cranbrook Academy of Art Museum from September 20-November 1, 1981, this beautifully produced, lavishly illustrated, and remarkably thorough document on the art movement Fluxus is one of the first studies of what may emerge as one of the most seminal "anti art movements" of the twentieth century. It brings together an amazing number of illustrations, and documents ideas and work of an incredibly wide number of artists including Per Kirkeby, Yoko Ono, George Brecht, Ay-O, Joseph Beuys, John Cage, Nam June Paik, Claes Oldenburg, Robert Watts, and George Maciunas, the author of many of the Fluxus Manifestoes and organizer of many Fluxus Happenings. An illustrated bibliography of Fluxus documents and a chronology (even admittedly incomplete) of Fluxus performances makes this catalogue a necessary and useful volume for any scholar of the period. Bound in softcover, with glue binding, the book is in excellent condition with only a small bump to the lower right corner of the front cover, light shelfwear, and slight sunning to spine. The binding is tight, and the interior is clean, with no creasing to the spine. . Wrappers. Fine Condition/No Jacket, As Issued. more information

Harry N. Abrams, Inc. New York, 1965 Possibly the first monograph to seriously examine the art of Assemblage and "happening" art in New York in the mid 1960s by one of the movement's seminal artists, this monograph remains one of its most definitive documents. Beautifully bound in burlap covered boards with added text on spine (and subtracted surface lettering on cover) and original form fitting clear plastic cover. Lavishly illustrated with black and white photographs--both candid and documentary--and handsomely designed with an appropriately unorthodox graphic sensibility. Pages 145-208 are entirely text, printed on brown paper, while the rest of the 341 pages consist entirely of photographs printed on white. Artists range from the well known (Jackson Pollock, Robert Rauschenberg, Claes Oldenburg, Red Grooms) to the legions of lesser remembered names whose works still managed to leave a lasting impression on the art world. A previous owner's name, home city, and date are inscribed on one of the front free endpapers, and some light smudges of white paint are on the plastic cover. Some notes in blue ink are made in the margins of several of the text pages, and two paragraphs on pp. 168-169 are discreetly highlighted in yellow. Else, this scarce and important monograph is in excellent condition. . Cloth. Near Fine/Fine Condition. more information
