AXEHEAD.  FROM TEN POSTERS: ILLUSTRATIONS FOR ART-LANGUAGE. 1977. CHARLES HARRISON’S COPY.

Coventry: Art & Language, 1977

108 x 83.7cm, black on newsprint paper. A large format poster to promote the later Art-Language journal which shows cover art from the later volumes and numbers of the magazine – Here “AXEHEAD”.

This is a fragile item and there are some condition issues here – a 11cm closed tear in the middle of the top edge and some minor wear along the sides. The paper is cheap and liable to discolour although this one has mostly escaped that issue. There were 10 different posters originally produced – this is just one of them but all are very scarce and were low edition sizes. This example was purchased as part of Charles Harrison’s archive. Very very scarce.
