TWENTY-TWO WOMEN TALK FRANKLY ABOUT THEIR ORGASMS. 1974. DESIGN BY AA BRONSON.

paul robertson — Sat, 04 Jan 2020 00:24:21 +0000

Toronto: Coachhouse Press, 1974 31 x 23cm, 78pp. Boards with pictorial dustjacket. First edition of this feminist investigation of the female phenomenology of the orgasm (at the time such investigations were part of a concerted attempt to de-mystify female sexuality and empower women into exploring their bodies and, for some, enjoying sex for the first time). Verbatum texts of 22 different women explaining how they trigger and what they experience orgasms. This book was designed for Harrison by A.A. Bronson of General Idea who also contributes a short note of approval on the inside back dustjacket about his friend. The book is in part dedicated to General Idea. One of 2,500 published - this copy has a couple of tears on the edges of the dj and is slightly bowed but may interest not only those considering feminism in the 70s but also the association with Bronson and G.I.

PUTTI. 1993.

paul robertson — Sat, 09 Nov 2019 12:18:07 +0000

Toronto: General Idea, 1993 8cm dia, printed cardboard coaster with an appropriated 4 x 8.5cm floral scented seal soap (supposedly found at a pharmacy by one of the member’s mothers and noticing its resemblance to the artists’ installation Fin de siècle, she bought a few as gifts, General Idea then contacted the supplier to buy the remaining stock and printed pulpboard bases for each to sit on). The soap after 25 years has began to sweat (this will be true of the entire edition) and some of the detail is beginning to be lost. Let's be honest - a lot of artists no longer conditioner long term conservation of their work. Over 10,000 were produced, but they are now scarce and hard to find.
