15 x 17cm, 16pp including wrappers. Stapled. Exhibition catalogue for a solo show by the Cobra artist Strid with a foreword by Jorgen Nash in Swedish (Handen och ogat). There are 53 works listed with 4 black and white illustrations and a full colour lithograph inside the back cover. Very slight browning to the white of the cover else VG+. Scarce.

21 x 14cm, 224pp. Boards with dustjacket. Monograph on the work of Nash's colleague in the Second Situationist International; Hardy Strid. The artist was a major force for modernism in Denmark and was a co-founder of the Co-Rictus group (which along with Wolf Vostell could lay claim to be the original graffiti / street artists at one point appropriating an unused 300 foot commercial street billboard and overnight turning it into an abstract mural although two members of the group - Nash and Thorsen were arrested for their troubles; Strid and Kunzelmann were mixing paint at the time in the gallery opposite and completed the work). Many many full colour and full page illustrations of works which suggest Strid's influences were much more pop than Cobra and extensive documentation of articles in journals, books etc and a major index / tabulation of all of the works of Strid and their media. This copy is signed by Nash and also by Strid (the latter at a slightly later date). Fine association copy of this useful and rather wonderful reference.

24 x 17.8cm, 192pp plus card wrappers. A triple number of this artistic journal founded by Nash and Jorn (who were brothers) after the former was excluded from the International Situationists by Debord along with the SPUR grouping. The magazine was subtitled Tidskrift for konst mot atombomber, p var och politiker ("Magazine for art against atomic bombs, popes and politicians").

The new organisation formed by Nash was called the "Bauhaus Situationists". The journal was named after the Drakabygget farmhouse in Southern Sweden where Nash lived and turned into a commune.

This number has contributions by Al Hansen, Jean Sellem, Asger Jorn, Lis Zwick, Spur, Jorgen Nash, Arne Ruste, Terje Johanssen,  Hardy Strid, and others and is illustrated in b/w with new collages, photographs, drawings and found imagery.

A VG+ example.
