GEOLOGY. 1972. SIGNED BY ATKINSON. ONE OF THE RAREST OF A&L BOOKS.

Zurich: Editions Bischofberger, 1972

29.7 x 20.9cm, 8pp plus original card covers. Staple bound. This is the rarest of the Art & Language books published by Bischofberger although in truth the editions were printed in Coventry (without permission) by the university printing section and driven to Zurich by David Rushton in his Morris Minor van. The numbers of each printing are not known but it seems that they varied (Paradigms of Art was published in fewer than 5 copies for example) and there seems to have been relatively few of this book produced despite a claim that there were 200 issued.

This example is in very good condition and is signed in ink by Terry Atkinson.

ART-LANGUAGE. 1970 – 1978. A CONTINUOUS RUN OF 9 NUMBERS

Art + Language
ART-LANGUAGE Vol. 1 Nr 1
Chipping Norton: Art & Language, February 1970
21.5 x 13.5cm, 32pp. Original card covers. First edition of this inaugural number of the important conceptual art journal with articles by Sol LeWitt, Dan Graham, Lawrence Weiner, David Bainbridge and Michael Baldwin. LeWitt's Sentences on conceptual art. Graham's Poem-Schema and Weiner's Statements had all been previously published elsewhere but being in a single journal allowed their views to be compared - LeWitt's 10th sentence is "Ideas alone can be works of art: they are in a chian of development that may eventually find other form. All ideas may not be made physical." - compare that with Weiner's more famous and more readily quoted dictum regarding the requirement that "1. an artist may construct a work 2. a work may be fabricated 3. a work need not be built. A reasonable assumption is that each being equal and consistant with the intent of an artist the decision as to condition rests within the needs of the receiver upon the occasion of receivership."
