[New York: Richard Morrison, c. 1983]. Unique artists' book. Clasp-bound wrappers, acetate cover. Quarto. 40 pages, printed on rectos only. Inscribed by Morrison to Larry Richard (but unsigned) and dated 1983. Experimental xerox book sans title produced by the downtown artist Richard Morrison circa 1983. Morrison worked in a variety of media, making a film with David Wojnarowicz, performing in the original "Einstein on the Beach," as well as being included in exhibitions at 303 Gallery in 1988 and Vrej Baghoomian Gallery in 1991. This fascinating and unknown book features a series of crude drawings (with a few photography-like images interspersed), and is reminiscent of Albert Oehlen's Dum Dum books and Christopher Wool's early work. Fine in a fine jacket.
