PACKING
We try to keep costs down and we are also aware of the effects of packing on the environment.

Where possible we try to recycle packaging materials. If you require new pristine packing boxes/envelopes (say for a gift) then please let us know.

Large posters are usually rolled and sent in firm tubes - if you require flat packing for any large item then please let us know on ordering:in such cases, there may be a surcharge to cover the extra costs.

Other items are send in appropriate packaging.

INSURANCE
We will cover all shipments with full loss insurance up to £250. Thereafter a surcharge is needed.

We will consider sending items without full insurance but this is at the purchaser’s decision and risk. If you wish us to do this then please indicate in writing what you want us to do.





Unoriginal Sins is an established venture trading in the field of the contemporary and modern avant garde movements from 1900 to the present day. We have a vast inventory of books, documents, artworks, ephemera, object multiples, LPs and other digital media as well as representing major collections from significant artists.

We trade almost entirely online - we purchase new material all the time and offer regular clients email lists (which you can sign up to here) of new arrivals. Soon after the distribution of those lists, new items are placed online so it is worth returning regularly to this site to see what new things are for sale.

It may be possible to visit in person and see our inventory but that is by appointment only - please email us. We can supply references for new clients should that be required.

We are always looking for new material to add to our stocks - we have a desiderata here but we are interested in all material that is similar to our core interests. Do get in touch.

EDITION BLOCK BERLIN. 1981.

£75.00

Berlin: Rene Block, 1981

16.5 x 21cm, printed plastic ring folder content of 44 different 10.5 x  15cm, mostly 1pp (some are fold out other 2pp) promotional leaflets each for a different edition or portfolio. All the major Block artists are here – Beuys, Paik, Filliou, Koepcke, Opalka, Horn, Roth, Hamilton, Palermo, Polke, Richter, Vostell and others. There is an additional 8pp short essay in German and English by Rene Block and also a list of the exhibitions and bibliography.

This is a catalogue that was on sale during an exhibition of the editions at the Edinburgh City Arts Centre (when that building had interesting shows that weren’t just about bringing income)  coordinated with Rene Block by Richard Demarco – and there is a blue 5.7 x 15cm, 1pp blue leaflet noting this.

This is in very good condition but annoyingly there are contemporary handwritten notes by a critic on many pages (he notes that Filliou has poor drawing skills!) – we suspect we know which particular Scottish critic this is (a man who once misidentified a Man Ray in my collection for Duchamp) but if we said we would just be being snide.
