26 x 18.5cm, 144pp plus original card covers. Artist's book created y Pierre Tilman which has original contributions by Annette Messager, Pascal Doury, Peter Klassen, Urs Luthi, Jacques Monory, Arnulf Rainer and Bruno Richard as well as Boltanski.

Boltanski's contribution is 6pp and is Les Jardins Japonais which is a pair of photographs of a model garden in black and white with the lighting creating a strong polarisation of the images.

This is the first known printing of such an image from a model - similar works were later the main subjects of photographic works and artist's books such as Lanterne Magique in 1982. The style of the photographs showing a "trail" of light which bends over the pages is similar to later works also.

This book is not referenced in any catalogue raisonne. Very rare. VG+.

Paris: Chorus, 1971
17.4 x 34.7cm offset printed blue and black duotone - the original image created by Monory from the picnic on 7 November 1970 in the Parc de Saint-Cloud. There are differences from the original to Boltanski's attempt to recreate (for example the child in the right foreground carrying a long stick). This is one of 120 examples also signed and numbered by Monory. However this work has found behind broken glass and there are a number of surface scratches on the print.
