hardcover. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Cloth. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Gilbert & George. Tiny nip to top edge of spine of D/J. Gilbert & George are unquestionably among the most important and original artists of our time. In this delightful and engagingly informal portrait, Gilbert & George reminisce about their family upbrining in the country (George in Totnes, Gilbert in the Italian Dolomites), their immediate friendship at St. martin's School of Art in the late 1960s, their life in Spitalfields 'stripped to the best essentials', and their relish of the mixed cultures of the East End. They proclaim certain arears to be no-go: their art is not autobiographical, and 'we believe we deal with sex in the gentle way we want to in our pictures. If sexual confession was a way of changing society we'd do it, but we believe in doing it through out pictures'. With their distinctive trademark single-breasted, three-button suits and their famously studied but courteous composures, Gilbert & George set out as artists without a gallery, an almost blasphemous conception at the time. From living, and singing, sculptures, they developed a line in controversial subject-matter that extends from the Dirty Words pictures to The Naked Shit Pictures and The Fundamental Pictures. As exponents of photo-based are, they are, as writer David Sylvester has remarked, perhaps second only to Andy Warhol. One of the pleasures of this book is seeing how so many critics (including Farson himself) have come to recognise the artists' vision and to regard some of their works as among the major pictures of the century. Illustrated. 240 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).…
