[Untitled, Black/White].

New York: Self-published, 1978. Artist's book. Duodecimo. One of two intertwined bookworks self-published by Louise Lawler in 1978; Black/White offers a loose adaptation of an unfilmed screenplay from Metro Pictures founder Janelle Reiring, dramatizing the 1917 execution of exotic dancer/alleged spy Mata Hari in France. For both publications, Lawler worked with the same conceit: printing two distinct prices for the edition to the versos of the front covers, with each copy having one of the two options circled; in this instance, the more expensive price is selected ($100.00, instead of $4.95). Minor rubbing to spine of illustrated wrappers; near fine. Uncommon.
