Description
Luxembourg: Imprimerie Saint-Paul, 1982. First limited edition. Hardcover. Near fine. 176/225. Oblong Octavo. Unpaginated (28 leaves). Original illustrated cream paper-covered boards with gray and black lettering on cover, white on spine. Gray endpapers. Title page with tan lettering. Printed to heavy paper. Inscribed "For Bettina, ces signes en signe de haute amitié, Arthur / 31/1/84" on verso of front free endpaper. (Bettina Brendel was a German-American painter known for her computer-generated imagery). Edition of 250 with ten non-commecial copies marked HC, fifteen numbered I to XV with an original ink, and 225 copies numbered from 1 to 225. This is copy No. 176. Beautifully illustrated with eighteen high-quality offset reproductions of Arthur Unger's mysterious imagery, one of them double-page, and one on front cover. "Arthur Unger, thus freed from the rules of calligraphic ideograms, re-conquers the sign and draws from the present moment the physical energy that triggers his vision of the world. A feverish alchemist, he constructs puzzles and traces enigmatic formulas, objects of his fascination. The plastic rhythm underlies a kind of choreographic space that is animated by etheral creatures." (Arnault) Contains biographical notes, exhibition history, principal collection, and publications at rear. Text in French. Minor wear to covers.
