HELL Richard (1949) - WOOL Christopher (Chicago, Illinois, United States 1955)
New York, John McWhinnie & Glenn Horowitz Bookseller, 2008, 23,4 × 18,5 cm, hardcover with acetate covering, dust jacket, and black cardboard slipcase, pp. [128], collaborative artist’s book by Richard Hell and Christopher Wool, built around paired words whose apparent disconnection opens onto unexpected associations. The publication turns reading into a visual and poetic exercise, moving between order and free association. Published in conjunction with their 2008 exhibition at John McWhinnie at Glenn Horowitz Bookseller and Art Gallery. The book later became a direct source for Alessandro Michele’s Gucci Fall/Winter 2020 Men’s collection, which reproduced several of its word pairings on garments. Copy no. 24 from the special edition of 50, signed by both authors.
