POEMES MECANIQUES. 1965. SIGNED & DEDICATED TO JOOSTENS.

Paris: Editions Andre Silvaire, 1965

16 x 13.5 cm, 30pp. Original wrappers. First edition of this early collection of concrete typewriter prints and the first of a series of “Spacialisme” publications produced as supplements to the ‘Les Lettres’ revue.

The Garniers were the originators of the text-based spatialist form, and throughout the 1960s they published the journal ‘La Lettre’ and a series of bookworks and manifestos.

A very good copy with a signed dedication from the authors (with a contact address) in blue ink to the artist/critic R. Joostens on the first page.
