		FREE domestic or international shipping with direct order. **Two of the postcards from 2001 show works of Baldessari's, and the third is from the wonderful Musso & Frank Grill in Hollywood. All three of these bear personal messages and have one or more pinholes near the top margin. The fourth was sent from Florence in 1972. The front is plain white, except for a hole slightly less than 1/2-inch in the center and the legend in pale gray, "A hole to see the sky through. Yoko Ono '71." On the address side the message to Matheny consists solely of a dotted circle echoing the die-cut hole. Price is for all four.

		FREE domestic or international shipping with direct order. **BOLDLY SIGNED BY CHRISTO in black on title page. 2 volumes in 1. Printed orange wrappers. 27 x 20.5 cm (11 x 8.5 inches).  265 + 99 pp., with several fold-out maps and other illusrations and graphs. A plastic pocket attached to the blank verso of the last page contains a sample of the fabric. Contents include: Project description (6 parts); Environmental setting, impact, mitigation (15 parts); Impact overview (4 parts); Alternatives to the proposed project (1 part). Appendix (pp. 151-265) contains supplementary exhibits, from lists of native plants to letters of recommendation and support. Volume 2, Addendum to the Draft Environmental Impact Report, dated December 12, 1975, reproduces comments and responses, both written (before November 26, 1975,) and oral (at a hearing, December 3, 1975). A copy of the Draft Environmental Impact Report that we sold in 2001 consisted of the first 265 pages in a plastic spiral binding. Most of this volume is reproduced at about 50% in David Bourdon's Christo: Running Fence; Sonoma and Marin Counties, California (NY: Abrams, 1978). The incredibly complex political, bureaucratic, financial, and commercial requirements needed to complete Christo's extraordinary projects are as much a part of his art as the aesthetic works he makes to visualize them and, through sales, to underwrite them. There are only twelve copies of this extremely rare document in OCLC (the World Catalogue), and seven of those are in Australian libraries. Backstrip very slightly faded; light cover wear. For an extra $200 ($950) total, we can also supply an as-new copy in slipcase and original mailing carton of the David Bourdon book described above, signed by Christo (limited to 2159 copies, with a page-sized piece of the original fabric bound).

Heavy black drawings with written text, almost Byzantine in their density, surround two  multiple-exposed photographs of the artist in a stylish hat and dress. A strong, very early work. Between 1963 and 1967 she and her then-husband ran the Stryke Gallery at 86 E. 10 Street, NYC. In 1967, the couple were with Emmett Williams in Reykjavik, Iceland. There they met Dieter Roth. She became his lover and he her muse. The description of a solo show, "Dorothy Iannone: Lioness." at the New Museum in NY in summer 2009 states, "Since the 1960s Iannone has continued to portray the female sexual experience as one of transcendence, union, and spirituality." Only light wear. No copies located in OCLC (nor any other publications of the Stryke Gallery).

		FREE domestic shipping with direct order. **North Carolina Museum of Art, 1976. Exhibition catalogue in the form of a thick folder with a pocket on each side holding loose sheets that reproduce letters, postcards, drawings, etc. of the late mail artist and founder of the New York Correspondance School, Ray Johnson (1927-1995). The stiff, white folder measures 29.3 x 24 cm and is 3.9 cm thick. A photo of Johnson and the long list of lenders appear on the rear. The two pockets hold, respectively, 126 and 128 leaves. Some are printed on both sides, and some are legal-sized paper folded at the bottom to 8-1/2 x 11 inches. The list of 99 lenders to the show reads like a who's who of the art world: Arakawa, Lynda Benglis, Christo & Jeanne-Claude, Elaine de Kooning, Charles Henri Ford, Henry Geldzahler, Dick Higgins, Richard Lippold, James Rosenquist, Ed Ruscha, Arturo Schwarz, and Ben Vautier, among many others. "Ray Johnson: the comedian as the letter," by William S. Wilson is printed on the two pockets. Ray Johnson's antecedents are found among the avant-garde of the 19th century and the Dadaists and every one of us who ever indulged in wordplay and puns. He was an irreplaceable participant in the Fluxus movement. This copy has been collated in full against two other copies. Almost inevitably, given its construction, the folder shows some wear, especially along the rear joint where the two halves are sealed together. Some light tanning of the covers.

	<![CDATA[ 
		Between 1963 and 1980 the cellist and performance artist Charlotte Moorman (known mostly for her work with Nam June Paik) organized fifteen increasingly elaborate festivals featuring a wide variety of performances in various locations. The first three were at Judson Hall, a small recital hall across from Carnegie Hall (not to be confused with Judson Memorial Church in Greenwich Village). Number 4 was in Central Park. Number 5 took over a Staten Island ferry. Number 6 paraded down Central Park West. The 7th was on two islands in the East River, the 8th, at the Lexington Avenue Armory. Festival number 9 occupied a vintage riverboat docked at South Street Seaport.  Number 10 took place in Penn Central boxcars on a track at Grand Central Station. Number 11 was at Shea Stadium; number 12, at Floyd Bennett Field at Gateway National Park in Brooklyn. The World Trade Center was the site of the 13th. Number 14 took place on the Charles River in Cambridge. The final number 15 was at the Passenger Ship Terminal on the Hudson River. **By number 11 (1974) the casts and acknowledgments had grown to the length of movie credits. Among the many hundreds of performers were John Cage, David Tudor, Allan Kaprow, Nam June Paik, Yoko Ono, Allen Ginsberg, Ray Johnson, Joseph Beuys, John Lennon, Max Neuhaus, Yvonne Rainer, Laurie Anderson, Ornette Coleman, Geoff Hendricks, Shirley Clarke, Bob Watts, James Tenney, Meredith Monk, and Al Hansen. **For each of these festivals Charlotte Moorman published a poster, four of them in two versions. She designed the simple first three herself; number four was a collaboration with Jim McWiliams; the remaining eleven were his work. Like the festivals, the posters became larger and increasingly elaborate, with images and text in layers. Number 11 is a riot of color featuring multiple aerial views of Shea Stadium. Number 13 shows the Twin Towers from different views. If number 11 was a riot of color, number 14 is full-fledged revolution. The sequence ends with a 20-color extravaganza. **A few complete sets remain available of approximately 50 that could be assembled from Charlotte Moorman's estate. Numbers 1, 2, 8, and 9 appear in two versions. Please write or call for a complete descriptive list. Some posters also are available singly. Nearly all of these posters that might appear on the current market were folded and mailed. All of these are flat, uncreased, and unmailed, except 2b, 3, and both number 8s. Those four were folded but are unmarked and have been stored flat. Sizes range from 8-1/2 x 5-1/2 inches to 36 x 24 inches. Sets will be shipped in tubes.

		San Francisco 1962-1964; Los Angeles, 1964-1967; New York, 1967-present. 203 fine, original issues in decorated wrappers, as issued. When the first issue of Artforum arrived in the summer of 1962, it seemed hopelessly parochial, with its nearly exclusive emphasis on California exhibitions. Even that issue, however, featured an article on Jean Tinguely and George Rickey and a review of Edward Kienholz, both by Arthur Secunda, plus Alfred Frankenstein on Mark Tobey. By the end of the year, the magazine already was spreading its horizon, with Kate Steinitz on fantastic architecture and John Coplans on the first US museum show of Pop Art, The New Paintings of Common Objects at the Pasadena Art Museum, with works by Warhol, Lichtenstein, Ruscha, and others. Artforum quickly developed into the most influential publication in the world for new art and its leading advocate. Indeed, the enthusiasms of its editors and writers shaped much of the course of contemporary art in those and later years. In her anthology, Looking critically: 21 years of Artforum magazine (1984), Associate Publisher Amy Baker Sandback wrote: "…what would later be tagged as Pop, Minimal, Earthwork, Neo-Expressionism, and New Wave was introduced while the artworks were as yet unknown to the general public and before they had been defined by a body of criticism." Long, early runs like this are virtually impossible to assemble today because of the rarity and fragility of many of the issues. Among the hundreds of high points in this group are the Surrealism issue of September 1966 with its ingenious cover by Ed Ruscha, Robert Smithson's eight important writings from June 1966 through February 1973, the legally suppressed issue of March 1968 with its devastating critique of the then-new Pasadena Art Museum, the Film issue of September 1971, the sensational and vanishingly rare November 1974 with its scandalous advertisement featuring the artist Lynda Benglis, and the February 1982 issue with a Flexidisc by Laurie Anderson. Later years are available to extend this run. Please see the free, on-line Artforum Index, 1962-1968 at mcgilvery.com. Shipping extra on this very heavy set.
