L’ARC C’EST LA LYRE. 1998. ONE OF ONLY 26 COPIES WITH UNIQUE COLLAGE.

Paris: Editions al dante, 1998
16 x 10cm, 28pp. Card covers. First edition of this artist’s book which relates the artist’s performance celebrating the myth of Diane and Acteon (a story more often performed as a ballet) but here in three different variations along with two b/w reproductions of original photo-collages by Blaine. This example is one of only 26 lettered copies each of which is not only signed and lettered on the colophon but has a two part (15.5 x 9.8cm and 15.5 x 19.6cm respectively) original ink and paper collage with one wrap around sheet being on transparent paper with an original ink text by Blaine and the other being a card with two real bird feathers attached to it. Each collage and text differed in each copy of the book. Fine.
