15.5 x 10.4 x 2cm with card closer and metal rivet content of 30 1pp and 2pp inserts (various sizes). Exhibition catalogue but designed by Dietmann simultaneously making it an artist's book. The inserts are b/w photographs mostly of sculptures or from performances by the artist, various concrete poems as well as quotations or epigrams including leafs by Robert Filliou, George Brecht, Emmett Williams, D. C. Bidlake, and Thomas Tidhelm. Some if the inserts have small closed tears but are overall VG+ and the external shipping box is VG with stains and damage from the postal service. The box was sent originally to Hubert Peeters of Brugge and was possibly hand addressed by Dietmann. Scarce.

10.5 x 15cm, 2pp artist's postcard with a reproduced sketch by Filliou of the proposed doors for the toilets in the new Monchengladbach museum (Men, Women and Artists). Verso: details of the work. Limitation unknown but not commonly encountered. VG+.

Programme: hand out for the Earle Brown Lecture on "Composing Music by Chance" and the Filliou/Williams Extra-Sensory Misperception. 27 x 22cm, 6pp. Included in the stapled leaflet is a "souvenir sheet" which consists of a copy of the Filliou/Williams multiple "The Pink Spaghetti handshake" (each unique). The artists shook hands while holding painted spaghetti with a sheet of white paper between their grasps and the resulting "print" was allowed to dry and is included here stapled within the handout. This is a rare and important example of this famous work - which takes pride of place in both poet's oeuvre and is oft amusingly mentioned in William's autobiography as the poets' most important joint contribution to the history of art. Some folding and tears without any paper loss - a very good example of this first edition example of this rare work - later this work was produced as an editioned print. 3 handbills: uniformly 4to, all 1pp. Mimeotext on white paper. Programme details of the first two bills are respectively for the Ferlinghetti contribution ("Underwear") and a Lebel happening and le Groupe Panique International (a drama). Some small closed tears but no paper loss, previous creases where folded.

The third hand out is the programme for a concert by Nam June Paik and Charlotte Moorman on 21 May 1965 where works by Paik, Chiari, Brown, Corner, Cage, La Monte Young, Dick Higgins and Ichiyanagi were performed. Interestingly the programme notes the loss of a Paik sculpture "Robot" as having "disappeared mysteriously on the way from Iceland to Paris in the international air labyrinth."

Three original photographs - respectively 18 x 24cm, (image 12.5 x 18.5cm); 24 x 18cm (image 18.5 x 12.5 cm) and 9 x 13 cm (image 5.5 x 9.5 cm). All are b/w and press shots from "Chapman-Fotogram" Cignac, France (company stamps and hand written descriptions verso). The images are of a performance by Alexandro Jodorowsky (2 images) where he and his naked female co-performers had their bodies smeared with honey and hair and a 'sacrilegious' ceremony was performed where a 'priest' handed out hosts for consumption by the same naked participants. The third smaller photograph is a portrait of Label. All have very minor surface scratches but are otherwise very good. Images on request.

Together - a rare group of material from this historic festival. The material is also with some significance to the works of several Fluxus affiliated artists (especially the bound in copy of the "Pink Spaghetti handshake") and despite the typical wear associated with such freely distributed material a very desirable group of material.

PRICE IS FOR THE ENTIRE GROUP OF MATERIAL

41 x 28cm, 28pp a single number of this b/w ( tabloid newsprint magazine with original contributions by participating artists. This is either nr 1 or 2 in the series but is not numbered (so probably #1) - artists included original contributions by Richard Long, Robert Filliou, Dieter Roth, Wolfgang Laib, Barry Flanagan and Robert Smithson.

One thousand printed and distributed free at the time but now extremely hard to finds - paper slightly browned due to stock employed and folded as issue but otherwise a very good copy of this emphemeral publication.

9.7 x 12.2 x 3.5cm two part wooden box with two metal hinges and a metal clasp. The label on the front of the box reads: "VIVE LA MARRIAGE" and another label inside the top of the box continues "A TROIS" and there is a pornographic b/w original pornographic photograph of an erect man with two women. The label is signed by Filliou.

The Optimistic Boxes were originally Xmas gifts from the artist. The edition size is not known but it was not huge.

As ever the glue on the two labels is discoloured but else this is VG+. Scarce.

The work is titled "FAX-O-GASME" and is signed, dated and has the title and background information also handwritten in blue ink on the upper part of the fax. The paper is mildly browned after 20 plus years but else this work is in VG+ condition.

A unique work by the Fluxus artist.
