Ben Dieu Art Total Sa Revue

Nice, Self-published, 1963-1964. Three brown folders assembled in printed kraft paper wrapper, 31 x 22 cm, housing approx. 45 loose sheets of various colours and sizes, with original collages, stamps, texts, posters and editions by Ben Vautier. The cover of one folder is decorated with collages on all sides.

Interior sheets include various mounted elements such as a 45 rpm vinyl record, a razor blade ('Solution No.17, La Mort'), a slice of mirror (Portrait de Ben 61), small envelopes with (unknown) contents, a beautiful collage with a dried plant etc. Also contains various folded posters with text works. The magazine was meant to be produced in an edition of 300, but far fewer copies were made. Every copy is unique, displaying variations in content from one to another. A few collages have loose parts as the glue has dried, but this copy is in rare very good condition.
