About This Item
U.S.A.: Privately Printed, 2010. First Edition, First Printing. Hardcover. Fine/None Issued. Unpaged. Chiefly color illustrations. 23 cm. 8vo. Hardcover. Original illustrated paper over boards. Book Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: None issued. Inscribed by Alexander Barton: "S-----, Good Glut & guten blut. Alexander Barton." A fascinating record of the 2010 collaboration of Barton and Anagnostis which includes an interview excerpt in the last few pages. Two event cards for Alexander Barton's November, 2010 exhibition "Hot Hide" enclosed. Scarce. Worldcat shows no record of this title. From the "Machines with Magnets" website: "COMEX OR BECAMUS by: ALEXANDER BARTON & ADAM ANAGNOSTIS Alexander Barton and Adam Anagnostis join forces in a genre-bending artistic collaboration. COMEX OR BECAMUS will be debuting at Machines With Magnets on Saturday, August 28th 2010. Barton, a RISD graduate, and Anagnostis, a URI graduate, have spent the last year and a half constructing COMEX OR BECAMUS, a large-scale multimedia art installation and literary publication. This collaboration represents the Providence artists' ambition, criticism, and overwhelming search for truth. Barton's meticulously constructed installation consisting of eleven oil paintings and fundamental geometric elements melds with Anagnostis' aphoristic written landscapes in a 13-square-foot, 40-page arc of hypnotic aggression, conflict, and beauty.
