First Edition
Softcover. Condition: g. First edition. Quarto. XII, [2], 144, [2]pp. Original illustrated wrappers. Frontispiece. Prepared in 1974 for an exhibit at the Whitney with a section about artists, Jasper Johns, Roy Lichtenstein, Claes Oldenburg, Robert Rauschenberg, Larry Rivers, Andy Warhol, and prints by the other artists represented. A remarkable overview of pop art as response to our age of advertisement, and what technology allowed artists to do in the early 1970s. The section on sign and object puts words to feeling human presence in objects suspended from any sense of connection to them, yet allowing the viewer to find a new way to respond. This work is profusely illustrated with numerous b/w and color photographic reproductions. Moderate sunning and soiling along edges of wrappers. Very minor age-toning along paper margin. Wrappers in overall fair to good, interior in good+ condition.
