Descripción Hardcover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: New. 1st Edition. Extremely rare SIGNED 1st Edition/1st Printing of internationally renowned artist Xu Bing's wonderful Book from the Ground: from point to point, a graphic novel that can be read by anyone because it is entirely composed of internationally recognizable symbols and icons and The Book about Xu Bing's Book from the Ground which tells the story of how the artist conceptualized and created his work. Both were signed and dated by the author at a recent lecture at the Huntington Library, San Marino, California. "Twenty years ago I made Book from the Sky, a book of illegible Chinese characters that no one could read. Now I have created Book from the Ground, a book that anyone can read. Though quite different, the two books share something in common: regardless of a reader's language or level of education, the books treat all readers equally. Book from the Sky was an expression of doubt and alarm regarding preexisting systems of writing; Book from the Ground expresses the ideal of a single universally understood language, and my sense of the direction of contemporary communication." -- Xu Bing. Both books are brand new and in new condition. Xu Bing has signed them in both English and Chinese with a date ("2014"), both on the first free endpage. We will pack each of these treasures in bubble-wrap to protect their corners and ship them in sturdy box to make sure they arrive in pristine condition. Signed by Author(s).
