Sphere books edition of this early example of conceptual art. 12mo, original illustrated cover, as issued.
"Burn this book after you've read it." -- Yoko
"A dream you dream alone may be a dream, but a dream two people dream together is a reality."
"This is the greatest book I've ever burned." -- John
A sketch by John Lennon with an image of himself is printed on the front near the title page. Strange inscription to the front free end paper. The Sphere edition integrates the subject matter of Ono's 1966 short film Bottoms. This has become famous as an early example of conceptual art, containing a series of "event scores" that replace the physical work of art - the traditional stock-in-trade of artists - with instructions that an individual may, or may not, wish to enact. "Grapefruit is one of the monuments of conceptual art of the early 1960s, She has a lyrical, poetic dimension that sets her apart from the other conceptual artists. Her approach to art was only made acceptable when white men like Kosuth and Weiner came in and did virtually the same thing as Yoko, but made them respectable and collectible" Cover has some wear, can be viewed in the images. Pages age toned throughout, spotting to end papers and inner covers. Inscription to the front free end paper. 'Thanks John' inside back cover, unsure if these inscriptions are related to John Lennon. Occasional odd blemish to some pages.
Please view the photographs for more information.
