Boltanski, Christian and Jacques Roubaud — Ensembles

Paris T. F. Artes Graficas Spiral-bound stiff wraps, unpaginated. A nice, fresh, clean copy of a scarce artist's book. Limited to 3000 copies. Artists book in which Boltanski and Roubaud compiled 99 lists with different numbers of individuals' names, took photocopy-quality photographs - presumably of the same individuals - and divided the images into 3 parts: a forehead area, eyes and nose, and mouth and jaw. All of this is spiral-bound, allowing the reader to interchange the different portrait strips to create their own portraits.
