200526135Chicago: Stephen Daiter Contemporary. Near Fine. 2005. First Edition. Softcover. essentially as-new with just a touch of surface wear in the upper part of the front cover. B&W photographs Per an explanatory note this is "a customized edition of 'Berlin in the Time of the Wall' a book an artwork and a history offered by one of the most thoughtful and reflective artists of our time." In other words this is not the book itself published in 2004 by Loosestrife Editions but rather the catalogue that accompanied an exhibition about the book -- that is celebrating its publication -- that was presented in Chicago in early 2005. The brief introductory essay is by Gerry Badger who just to confuse things a little more had also written the text for the original book. And once more: don't confuse the two. This catalogue is 72 pages in length not including covers -- not 80 as I've seen stated elsewhere -- and contains about sixty photographs whereas the original book was 464 pages long. Includes "Publication History of John Gossage." . Stephen Daiter Contemporary paperback books
