An immaculate set of these outstanding post-war American artist's books, featuring collaborations between four the most influential American poets of the second half of the twentieth century, and four important second generation New York School artists. The collaborators "lived in New York City where they knew one another well for a number of years and followed one another's work with involved interest. Tiber Press left the choice of partners in this project to the individuals themselves, and, in collaborating, the poet and painter were acknowledging an awareness of some real relationship between their work" (prospectus). Each is one of an edition of 200 copies, signed by the poet and the artist.
Johnson, Artists' Books in the Modern Era, 1870-2000. Pp. 226-227. The American Livre de Peintre, No. 21 (Hartigan).
