Zustand: Very good. First Edition. Extremely rare publication by Robert J. Fox and Sister Judith Savard, "[drawing] on many sources and uses many believing people to illustrate the impossible - the meaning of love". Sister Savard was head of Marymount Collage art department, and Fox was director of community-orientated group Full Circle Associates and was credited as being instrumental in ending the 1967 East Harlem riots. Both worked with Spanish-speaking residents of New York and were involved in mural-painting and the city's late-1960s "Summer in the City" anti-poverty programme which aimed to "clean and cheer up slum streets". An extremely rare colour artistic production combining late sixties psychedelia with non-secular (and understated) religiosity. It consists of 16 loose-leaf circular glossy sheets printed recto and verso housed in original printed envelope, resembling an LP record. Artworks are pop-art style photographs of New York residents with inspirational quotes from figures ranging from E.E. Cummings to Camus. The project was an outgrowth of the "Summer in the City" programme which commenced with 'A Journal of City People Who Unbelievably Believe in the City and the Fullness of Life to be Found There'. According to the cover sheet, 'Full Circle' was the last publication in the series. Envelope containing single paper discs.
