From Constable to Koons
Books Inscribed by Artists
Benjamin Spademan has been putting together this group of books for several years, starting when he acquired a monograph on Henry Moore, with an original drawing and presentation by the artist. A whole collection began to form, including artists of all kinds - painters, sculptors, photographers, illustrators or cartoonists, from Alechinsky to Zadkine - allowing all kinds of work, from highly finished drawings, collages and watercolors to minimal interventions.
The corpus covers a wide range of types, from livres d'artistes to standard monographs, periodicals or exhibition catalogues.
