OPp. in ill. OUmschlag, zus. mit Zinnguss in orangefarbener OLwd.-Kassette. Eines von 40 Exemplaren der Vorzugsausgabe, von Whiteread eigenhändig signiert und nummeriert. Der Zinkguss eingeschlagen in nummerierter Textildecke. - Rachel Whiteread wurde für diese Ausgabe eingeladen, ein für sie besonders wichtiges Buch auszuwählen, für das sie dann eine neue Schutzumschlag entwirft und unter ihrem eigenen Namen als "Reprint" präsentiert. In diesem Fall hat der Künstler Mike and the Modelmakers' von M. Sasek gewählt, das 1970 veröffentlicht wurde. Das Londoner Studio von Whiteread lag gegenüber der Firma Lesney, die in den 1970er Jahren der Spielzeughersteller des Matchbox-Autos war. "I chose this book because it is related to where I live and how I work. My old studio was next to the site of the original matchbox factory. As a child I played with matchbox cars, now my children play with them. A lot of those industrial buildings have been demolished in readiness for the 2012 Olympics. I found an original copy of this book in a junk shop in the late 1980's, it seemed like a fitting tribute to those old buildings and the author / illustrator M.Sasek and to those great matchbox cars. I was happy to give it a new lease of life." (R. Whiteread) - Sehr gutes und vollständiges Exemplar. With an original zinc casting and one signed ex libris - serigraph. One of 40 copies of the special edition, signed and numbered by Whiteread herself. The zinc cast with textile cover by Whiteread and numbered and monogrammed. - Rachel Whiteread was invited for this issue to select a book of particular importance to her, for which she then designs a new dust jacket and presents it under her own name as "Reprint". In this case, the artist chose Mike and the Modelmakers by M. Sasek, which was published in 1970. - Very good and complete copy. Dieses Werk ist regelbesteuert.
