Description
First Edition. Unpaginated artists' book [ca. 16 pp.] chiefly illustrated, with a brief text concerning the horrors of nuclear conflict. 4to. Very good. Saddle stapled printed wrappers. [1449] Goldstone is a noted Los Angeles artist who has collaborated with Brad Hwang, Chris Burden, and Mark Pauline of Survival Research Laboratories. According to the colophon of the Manifesto, "All proceeds and donations gratefully accepted on behalf of the Artists Alliance for Survival are to be used to fund "Target L.A." activities." Target L.A.: The Art of Survival was a series of anti-nuclear events and exhibitions culminating in a major multimedia art festival on the anniversary of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, held August 6-9, 1982. The "target" was a two-level free-standing parking lot in downtown Los Angeles. Activities included carnival games designed by artists, live performances, art exhibitions, and film and video screenings. Off-site gallery exhibitions, poetry readings, and an evening of theater were produced concurrently. Although we are unable to prove it conclusively, it seems the present work may have been created in advance of the gathering. Unrecorded.
