Description:
[Düsseldorf: The Artist], November 1990.. 26 pictorial cards, plus interleaves and manuscript title. (125 x 175 mm). Collage and hand-painting. Contained in handpainted box, with manuscript title and date repeated inside the lid. Slight crack to one joint of the lid, otherwise about fine. A unique assemblage by the collagist and installation artist, comprised of an alphabet of 26 collaged cards, made up of found images with text captions, chiefly on subjects of armaments and conflict, each overpainted in blood red and gunmetal gray. Both the manuscript title and the inside of the upper lid are signed by Rungenhagen (1949-). The implication of the caption title is that this is likely one of a series of artist's alphabets.

Glenview, IL: The Artist, 2006.. Double-sided variation on an accordion flag book (20.5 x 25 cm folded). Fine, in folding card case with artist's imprint and limitation statement. Copy #11 of 25 numbered copies, signed by Hanmer. Pigment inkjet prints on polyester film, with central printed card spines, which, when unfolded and extended, stands on its own as a whole. The work derives its inspiration from a passage in Cather's MY ANTONIA, which is printed on the tail piece in company with the formal limitation and Hanmer's signature: "Everywhere, as far as the eye could reach, there was nothing but rough, shaggy, red grass ... And there was so much motion in it; the whole country seemed, somehow, to be running." When unfolded, the imagery and potential kinetics of the piece replicate that impression. Hanmer is an award- winning binder and book artist whose works have been included in scores of exhibitions.

Description:
This book is in very good condition. There is minor wear on the dust cover and little to no wear at all on the front, back, spine and edges of the cover boards. The pages are white, crisp and free of any markings. "Perhaps because it seems so close in time to our own experience, many art lovers feel a special kinship with the turn of the century. We speak of fin-de siecle artists almost as if we know them, and a large body of scholarly work exists covering nearly every conceivable aspect of the late nineteenth-century philosophy, sociology, and art. Given that, it is a rare and remarkable opportunity when one finds something new and unknown about the late 1800's, a privilege we at the Smithsonian Institute Traveling Exhibition Service are pleased to share with everyone who reads this book and visits the exhibition Art Nouveau Bing...." - Foreword from Art Nouveau Bing: Paris Style 1900
