About This Item
London: Privately Printed, 1977. Stiff card wrappers. Very Good. FIRST EDITION, INSCRIBED BY ARTIST. Side-stapled pamphlet (20.7 x 14.8cm), pp. [20], incl. b/w papercuts. Pink and black illustrated card wrappers. Edgewear, splodges to wrappers, inscribed by Yates in black ink to top of rear wrapper: "For Edna,/ with love,/ Jack". Occasional offsetting from images, else, clean, bright and tight. A pleasing copy of a pamphlet showcasing the work of Jack Yates. Jack Yates was an artist and photographer, who was principal lecturer and teacher at Camden Arts Centre. In his Introduction, the poet Peter Cundall introduces the artist, "Who has been in some 20 odd exhibitions over the years. Sold work in most countries around the world. Been put in national collections. Published with Studio Vista. Taught and lectures all over the country. Become something of an authority on collage and phot-collage [sic]. And edits and publishes one of the better little magazines. It will make you wonder what the hell an artist of this caliber had to do to get recognised." (inside front cover).
