{"product_id":"herman-de-vries-publisher","title":"Herman de Vries – publisher","description":"Once described as ‘small explosions of intelligence and sensation,\u003cbr\u003e\nthe seeds of wonder’ by poet Thomas A. Clark, the eschenau summer\u003cbr\u003e\npress publications stretch the definition of ‘artist’s book’ as far as\u003cbr\u003e\nit will go. Since 1974, from his home in Eschenau, Germany, renowned\u003cbr\u003e\nartist herman de vries (1931) sends out leaves of gold, the dust of\u003cbr\u003e\nsome roads, the forbidden down of thistles. A longtime key figure in\u003cbr\u003e\nthe book-as-art himself, most of these publications are the result of\u003cbr\u003e\nan open invitation from de vries to artist friends like James Lee Byars,\u003cbr\u003e\nMarinus Boezem and Melanie Bonajo, but also to poets and musicians\u003cbr\u003e\n– even to a keeper of bumble bees.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis book facilitates our reception of all 77 of these shared objects\u003cbr\u003e\nthrough full illustrations and written clarification. Two essays connect\u003cbr\u003e\nthe series to the international context of the artist’s book.","brand":"Boekie.nl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56102605848841,"sku":null,"price":49.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0948\/3685\/0953\/files\/Herman-de-Vries-publisher-boek-cover-9789462625907_7d4ffaf8-bce7-47e2-b935-2e4258bd8610.jpg?v=1781092506","url":"https:\/\/boekie.nl\/products\/herman-de-vries-publisher","provider":"Boekie.nl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
