"Some of the proceedings described in the following pages seem unjust to us, but we have to remember that these trials took place about 160 years ago. Many important reforms have been introduced both in England and France which have gone far to establish and safeguard the rights of the accused. One aspect has not changed; a criminal trial in France is more dramatic, more akin to the theatre, than in England, both in its setting and in the display of emotion." - from Foreward.

De expo exploreert de historiek en de actualiteit van het kunstenaarsboek aan de hand van 50 baanbrekende boeken uit de afgelopen 50 jaar. Johan Pas, kunsthistoricus,, verzamelt al zo'n twintig jaar kunstenaarspublicaties. Hij selecteerde voor elk jaar een cruciale titel. In het digitale tijdperk lijkt het conventionele boek in zijn bestaan bedreigd. Verdwijnen zal het niet, het krijgt wel andere functies en betekenissen, waaronder een artistieke. Kunstenaars hebben het creatieve potentieel van het boek als artistiek medium reeds lang ingezien. De tentoonstelling Multiple Readings zoomt in op dit relatief onderbelichte fenomeen van de 20ste eeuwse beeldende kunst; het kunstenaarsboek. Boeken (en tijdschriften), die reeds tijdens het interbellum gehanteerd werden door futuristen, dadaisten en constructivisten, kennen vooral in de jaren 60 en 70 van de vorige eeuw een ruime en rijke toepassing bij kunstenaars die actief zijn in de context van concrete poezie, fluxus, pop art, minimal art, arte povera en conceptuele kunst. Als laagdrempelig en makkelijk te verspreiden medium beantwoordt het boek aan de materiele en conceptuele normen van de proces- en projectmatige kunst. De laatste jaren lijken beeldende kunstenaars het boek opnieuw te ontdekken als alternatief medium. Multiple Readings exploreert de historiek en de actualiteit van het kunstenaarsboek aan de hand van 50 baanbrekende boeken uit de afgelopen 50 jaar. Johan Pas, kunsthistoricus, docent en auteur, verzamelt al zon twintig jaar kunstenaarspublicaties. Hij selecteerde voor elk jaar een cruciale titel, waar mogelijk aangevuld met relevante historische documentatie. Daardoor neemt de opstelling de vorm aan van een bibliochronologie die zowel liefhebbers van het boek als geinteresseerden in de hedendaagse kunst zal aanspreken. De reeks start met een kunstenaarsboek van Carlo Belloli (Milano, 1960) en eindigt met een werk van Nico Dockx en Helena Sidiropoulos (Antwerpen, 2009). Tussenin zijn er werken te zien van o.a. Andy Warhol, Marcel Broodthaers, Anne-mie Van Kerckhoven, Jacques Charlier, Thierry Decordier, Guillaume Bijl, Dennis Tyfus, Walter Swennen en Jan De Cock. Johan Pas (b. 1963), professor, author and curator, shares in the exhibition his more than twenty years old passion for art books: "'Artists' books are more than any other artistic medium able to infiltrate into the cultural network. They are stubborn obstacles in time, simultaneously they spread out around the world, slowly but surely." Johan Pas selected for each year a title from his collection: 'This one title a year is a self-imposed restriction to keep the choice sharp and the story bright.' The story begins with Yves Klein and ends (for now) with Vaast Colson and Dennis Tyfus. In the book, Multiple/Readings, all exhibited books are extensively discussed and illustrated.
First edition, 4to, xviii, 164pp., orig. cloth, slightly marked.

8vo., with coloured frontispiece, 11 coloured plates and 48 plates in monochrome, fore-edges very lightly dust-soiled; original decorative brown cloth, upper board and backstrip blocked in blind and lettered in black, a remarkably well-preserved copy in unclipped dustwrapper, the latter chafed (not affecting lettering) at head of backstrip. With advertisement front endpapers in sepia and 11pp of similar advertisements at end. 'All About Cookery' (first issued under this title in 1871) is a derivative of Isabella Beeton's final work 'The Dictionary of Cookery'. The 'Dictionary' was first published in 1865 and designed to full the gap between her classic (but highly-priced) 'Book of Household Management' and the cheaper 'Cookery'. A key feature of the work is the arrangement of its subject matter - recipes, menus, implements and so on - in alphabetical order for easy reference. It is her only work so presented and to our belief the first compilation of its kind. The Edwardian and Georgian editions are particularly comprehensive in their scope and coverage.
