30 x 21cm, 98pp + adverts plus card covers. A single number of this long running art journal here the important special issue on the theme of performance art. This has articles by Caroline Tisdall on Beuys' Coyote aktion in New York and Genesis P-Orridge and Peter Christopherson ("Sleasy")'s important essay Annihilating Reality as well as Mark Segal on Yvonne Rainer and Katia Tsiakma on Hermann Nitsch and Douglas Crimp on Joan Jonas as well as an interview with Klaus Rinke. There are also surveys of performance art in Germany and Holland. B/w images throughout.

This is a keenly sought number from the journal but is in below average condition - long tears on the spine and the pages are a little loose but all are present and corners a bit bumped - but this would be double in price if in vg condition. Priced thus.

22 x 7.5 x 8cm, unpaginated - approx 500pp.  The cover has a raised die-cut felt cover forming the title. The documentation and collective artist's book which reproduces the 170 different flags designed by various artists for this massive conceptual show - with each being allocated a page for a reproduction of the design and their instructions as well as a biography/contact details.

Contains full plans of the installations and the programme of associated events including an early Coum/P-orridge/Cossi Fanny Tutti performance where they performed 'Schlimm' and 'All that Glitters is not Kunst' - two important actions which lasted over 3 hours each and were performed in the town square in front of several hundred bemused residents. (See Ford 1999, 4.22 - 4.26 for a detailed description). This is an interesting solid bookwork designed to open like a carpet swatch with a single screw binding at top left. Fine condition.
