(LEWITT, SOL). LeWitt, Sol. Bern, SWITZERLAND: Kunsthalle Bern & Paul Bianchini, 1972. First Edition. Square 8vo. Printed Wrappers. Artist's Book. Very Good -.. 206pp, 195 b&w illustrations. Text in English. In a protective clear acetate dustwrapper. Published in conjunction with a 1972 installation at The Kunsthalle Bern, this early Sol LeWitt artist's book delineates one hundred and ninety-five geometric permutations derived from the intersections of arcs, circles, and grids. A most presentable example of this uncommon item (cited on page 41 of Giorgio Maffei and Emanuele de Donno's "Sol LeWitt: Artist's Books", entry number six in Alicia Legg's "Books by the Artist" bibliography in MoMA's 1979 "Sol LeWitt", as well as in Susanna Singer's "Publications by the Artist" bibliography in SFMoMA's 2000 "Sol LeWitt") showing some overall of overall light wear and creasing, soiling, and typical age-toning to its white wrappers along with the discreet blindstamp of an art dealer. It has been priced accordingly. Inventory Number: 025138
