KAUFT BEIM KUNSTLER! NICHT BEIM HANDLER! 1970.

Frankfurt am Main: s.p. (Fiebig), 1970

29 x 41.5cm, 2pp wall poster/broadside issued by the German sculpture in protest at the Koln fourth Art Fair pleading with those attending to buy from the artist not from the dealers. The campaign was ignored as the dealers sold four million marks worth of works during the show.  Later the artist became better known for his sculptures but this is an interesting document from the early days of art fairs. Browned because of the cheap paper employed, with handling creases and folded in the middle as well as punch holes for storage in a ring binder. This is priced relative to condition.
