Notes: Michael Snow, a conceptual artist and film-maker, produced "Cover to Cover" as an artist's book. It contains no text except the colophon and can be read forwards and backwards, with both sections converging towards the center.
Both the front and back covers are illustrated with a detailed photograph of a wood-paneled door, and as the reader progresses through the pages, which unfold as a quasi-cinematic non-linear narrative, a succession of full-bleed images leads into and through spaces and surfaces that continuously shift between illusory physical and representational existence. A tour-de-force by a contemporary of Robert Cumming and John Baldessari. - Condition: All items are offered for sale subject to Swann Galleries' standard terms and conditions of sale, which are published in our catalogues.
