GILBERT & GEORGE. 2004. UNIQUELY DEDICATED BY THE ARTISTS

London: PWP, 2004
28.5 x 23.5cm, 144pp plus embossed boards and pictorial dustjacket. First edition of this monograph on the later work of the duo – illustrated in colour throughout. This copy was one of a limited number which were released with a unique very bold dedication (as decided upon by the person pre-ordering the book) on the first end papers in gold ink by the artists. This copy has the handwritten dedication: “George the Cunt and Gilbert the Shit. With our love Gilbert and George x” – a dedication which references one of the artist’s earliest magazine page works which contained a similar self-abusing text. Unique thus. Fine.
