Paris: Cheval d'attaque, 1979
22 x 16cm, 108pp plus pictorial card covers. An artist's book of sorts (although published on the occasion of the exhibition in la Maison de la Culture de Chalon-sur-Saone so may also be seen as an exhibition catalogue) in that five previously published works are reprinted in chronological order after a short interview between Irmeline Lebeer and Boltanski.
The reproduced works are Recherche et presentation de tout ce qui reste de mon enfance, Tout ce que je sais d'une femme...

The artist's book has the text: "Typography which used to flow like rivers" - but all but the last two words are sent vertically rather than horizontally. A comment on experimental typography which infers disapproval although how a visual/concrete poets could take that view is hard to accept. The vertical section might be compared to waterfalls after all. VG+.
