A clever concrete poem from Jiří Valoch and Saša Rychecký, decomposing Che Guevara's last name into its syllabic constituents, with a few additional tokens (lla, er, ri) that allow for the generation of new Spanish words: e.g. guerra, guerilla, llave, valla, etc. Colophon hand-numbered as 23 of 50 and SIGNED by both artists; portfolio further INSCRIBED by Valoch to Fluxus artist Bengt af Klintberg. Faint offsetting from marker inscription to colophon leaf, with minor bump to top corner of remaining leaves; near fine. Scarce, with no OCLC records located.
