20199784Newark VT: Janus Press 2019. Hard Cover. Fine binding. Quarto. 6 pp. illus. Limited edition one of 120 numbered copies. Bound in a digital print on heavily textured paper over boards. Colophon inside the front cover the textblock is a 5-panel accordion foldout: the first three panels comprise a large vitreograph print by Van Vliet printed by Judith O'Rourke at Littleton Studios; this is followed by two panels each containing a poem by Ensing letterpress printed by Andrew Miller-Brown. The rear pastedown is a foldout digital print. All housed in a paper portfolio with author title and "Janus Press" on the front. A fine copy. <br /> <br /> Born in the Netherlands Ensing moved to New Zealand as a young girl. As a poet she has become a voice of New Zealand and these two evocative poems "Muriwai" and "At Muriwai" capture both a sense of place but also a certain transience of time. Beautifully illustrated by Van Vliet's images. A book that can be leafed through or folded out to striking effect displaying Van Vliet's images of the reef at Muriwai in New Zealand.

20079781Newark VT: Janus Press 2007. Wrappers. Fine binding. Oblong octavo. 26 ll. illus. Limited edition one of 150 numbered copies. Van Vliet's woven strip binding contains 12 printed leaves alternating with 14 illusion polycarbonate and flexible vinyl leaves all laid into a vinyl wrapper and housed in acrylic slipcase. Some of the vinyl leaves have started to break down their oils leaching into and discolor the paper leaves an unexpected and according to Van Vliet perfectly fitting result. <br /> <br /> This book is referential of the author's earlier Hermetic Waste Gefn Press 1986 that was issued the summer after the Chernobyl disaster. She writes in an artist statement: "The collagraph prints in Hermetic Waste were derived from alchemical engravings — here in Waste Incant the calligraphic line drawings are derived from science illustrations in children's text books. Redrawn and merging the pictorial 'facts' depict a disrupted 'nature.' Poetic texts sit inside the imagery functioning as an integrated caption. They describe processes by which toxic material enters into the environment. The back of each page lists hazardous wastes. Plastic interleaving features in both books referencing materials used in the storage of waste. How little has changed in twenty years." <br /> <br /> In her Grolier Club catalog to the collection of Robert J. Rubin Yvonne Korshak echoes and expands Johanknecht's statement of Waste Incant: "The book in its acrylic case is a statement about the storage of nuclear waste in plastic. The line drawings are derived from children's textbooks redrawn to show a disrupted nature. The toxic wastes listed partially alphabetically are printed on both sides of the embossed paper each page separated by a plastic sheet. The unstable and hence inappropriate and hazardous use of plastic to contain toxic waste is emphasized by the diverse deformations of each of the plastic sheets. <br /> <br /> "How fascinating that the book is immaculate and glamorous while its topic - waste - implies what's dirty and distasteful. The ironic disjunction dramatizes the tension between the allure of easy labor magical communications and other seductions of our high tech culture and the tarnished other side of the coin deadly byproducts with tenacious half-lives. The book uses the very products it condemns. We can't do without it can we" Yvonne Korshak and Robert J. Rubin. Beyond the Text: Artists' Books from the Collection of Robert J. Ruben.
