Twenty-three interventions from the Generation Collection. Collective book of 23 artists, each having illustrated or written on 2 to 4 loose-leaf sheets, in ink, grease pencil, felt-tip or watercolor, sometimes with collages, on different papers.

Gervais Jassaud is a French publisher of artists' books, who founded the "Collectif Génération" publishing house in the early 1970s, and was one of the promoters of the Supports-Surfaces artistic movement. In 1977, the Musée National d'Art Moderne at the Centre Pompidou in Paris exhibited his first books with original works. These books, conceived as original works, can be found in numerous private and public collections, including New York's MoMA and the British Library. He was Director of the École Supérieure d'Art et de Design de Reims until 2005. For this unique work, he enlisted the help of 22 artists, writers and painters: Jean-Louis Baudry, Philippe Boutibonnes, Alain Busto, Louis Dalla Fior, Laurent Danon Boileau, Alain Duault, Gérard Duchene, Gérard Durozoi, Serge Faucher, Jean-Pierre Krop, Michez, Frédéric and Paulette Nef, Bernard Pages, Jean-Pierre Pericaud, Christian Prigent, Maurice Roche, Line Ronchon, André Valensi, Claude Viallat, Jean-Louis Vila and Jean-Noël Vuarnet. The starting point is an extract from "Liriope" by J.L. Baudry.
