FANDANGOS NR 7. 1976. WITH MIMEOGRAPH LETTER FROM MARROQUIN.

Maastricht: Fandangos, 1976
230 x 21cm, 60pp plus covers. This, “the most important Art & Scandal Newspaper in the whole world” was published by the Colombian artist Raul Marroquin from 1971 until 1987. A bulletin board transferred to the printed page, the earliest numbers are poster-magaines but after the first four numbers it reverted to a more common (and cheaper to produce) A4 format. This number has a cover photograph by Klaus Staeck of Joseph Beuys and Nam June Paik, Marroquin on Lenny Bruce, and page contributions by Gerrit Dekker, Chris Burden, and video pages with stills from Paik, Oppenheim. Tardos, Moorman, Kubota, Perlman and Acconci as well as the Ecart collective, Opal Nations and Maurizio Nannucci. This number was guest edited by Peter Frank. One closed tear along top spine of cover and paper is browned as the magazine was printed on cheap paper – else VG. All copies are scarce.
JOINT:
30 x 21cm, 1pp mimeographic letter from the editor apologising for not being more active in garnering material for Fandangos. Reads more like a boast than an apology.
