An extraordinary association copy of Charles Henri Ford's book of concrete poetry, signed and inscribed to friend, long-time collaborator, and publisher Ira Cohen.A book of Ford's signature "poem posters," idiosyncratic variations on concrete poetry, in which spliced-together typefaces and texts are blended with acid-colors and images culled from popular media, such as newspapers, magazines, and television. These poems approach surrealist depths-the poetry of desire, dreams, and lack-through a strict adherence to the textual and visual surfaces of the 1960s. An exceptionally rare and profound work of poetry that wears its historical moment on its sleeve. Signed and inscribed by the artist to his friend and collaborator Ira Cohen on front flypaper.
