Accordion
2018 · Berkeley
by Ebner, Barry; Moor, Indigo (Poem)
Berkeley: The Studio of Nothing Else, 2018. Limited Edition. Accordion. Fine. Ebner, Barry. One of 25 copies of a variable edition, quarto size, [12] pp. "Fragments" is a variable edition of accordion books by Berkeley-based artist Barry Ebner, created with a series of monotypes collaged together, to form a seamless surface for the text to interact upon; because the imagery is created through the use of monotype overtop drypoint lines, each print in the book is unique, forming a variable edition.
The text is taken from a poem by Indigo Moor, Poet Laureate of Sacramento, California, printed first on separate sheets of monotypes, then sequenced into the accordion structure. The effect is a dreamlike reading of the poem, as the text can be partially obscured, existing in a space of dark and light.
___DESCRIPTION: Accordion book with hardcovers of grey cloth, paper label with monotype on the front board, black-and-white monotypes by Barry Ebner throughout; quarto size (10.75" by 7.5"), 12 unnumbered panels, one of 25 copies of a variable edition, unnumbered.
___CONDITION: Volume is fine, with clean boards, straight corners with no rubbing, the text block is sturdy, the interior is clean and bright, and entirely free of prior owner markings.
