THRESHOLD AGREEMENT. 1974. ONE OF ONLY 10 – 20 COPIES PRINTED.

Cardiff: Oriel Gallery, 1974
21 x 30cm, unpaginated (36pp) plus card covers. Artist’s book issued during the title exhibition (1974) written by Philip Pilkington and David Rushton (of A&L) and  Paul Wood (and A&L associate) and Peter Berry (ex Newport College). The title draws upon the trade union/government agreement of the time and the text is a form of agreement or dialogue or perhaps even might be seen as a contract between the four artists to create the exhibition. The book was both meant to stand alone but other copies were left in the space along with two posters and a hand-made wall chart also displaying the negotiations/dialogue between the artists. Exact numbers printed have been lost in time but Rushton says it was between 10 – 20 copies although elsewhere this is disputed. Fine condition.
