GILL Stephen (1971) - Lot 123

GILL Stephen (1971) Buried + disque « Buried » is the end result of a process that binds book to place in a startling way. Each of the color photographs featured in this collection were buried in the ground at Hackney Wick and later dug up and re-photographed. After the book was printed, the books were buried and dug up again, but the process is not yet complete; the c print photograph included in this limited edition is pristine, and he exhorts the reader to « bury your own, » and participate in this unique and beautiful process of book-making.
