A near fine copy. Inscribed by the author: "From one squirrel to another, Burt" From the library of Nathaniel Tarn, noted poet, translator, and professor of anthropology. An anthropological examination of the phenomenon of World's Fairs and Expositions, beginning with London's Crystal palace Great Exhibition in 1851, and working towards San Francisco's maniacally optimistic and lavish 1915 Exposition, less than a decade after the catastrophic earthquake, occuring at a point when most of the rest of the world was embroiled in war. The five essays that make up the work investigate what purpose these immense, costly, and occasionally downright bizarre spasms of commercial pride and civic hope served during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Signed.

[1] pp.; 28 x 21.6 cm.; black-and-white; edition size unknown; unsigned and unnumbered; offset-printed; Flyer / announcement published to promote events held between 13th and 14th Streets and 6th and 5th Avenues, New York City, on April 18, 1969. Participating artists included Vito Hannibal Acconci, Terence Anderson, Arakawa, Gregory Battcock, Matthew Benedict, Michael Brownstein, Scott Burton, James Lee Byars, Rosemarie Castoro, Eduardo Costa, Bill Creston, Larry Fagin, Madeline Gins, John Giorno, Bobbi Gormley, Tom Gormley, Dan Graham, Katherine Greef, Stephen Kaltenbach, Joseph Kosuth, Leandro Katz, Alcides Lanzy, Lucy Lippard, Rosemary Mayer, Ben Patterson, John Perreault, Lil Picard, Adrian Piper, H Alexander Roberts, Marjorie Strider, Mr. T., Bernar Venet, Frank Lincoln Viner, Anne Waldman, Lewis Warsh, Luis Wells, Hannah Weiner and Lawrence Weiner. These organized street works can be understood as extensions of both the Pop art Happenings of the earlier 1960s and the street protests taking place in New York City and throughout the country during the 1968 elections, the Civil Rights Movement, and the Vietnam War. Whereas the Pop happenings usually took place in galleries and performance spaces, the street works were unconfined by physically walled-in spaces. Enacted in open environments, comingled with the natural flow of pedestrians, these performances created unlimited possibilities for happenstance with the sidewalk as the stage and the city as backdrop, the inhabitants of New York became active participants with the artists, willingly or not.
