Exhibition catalogue for Gunter Brus, Augensternstunden, published by the Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven, 1984. A striking and scarce catalog documenting the work of the Austrian actionist and avant garde artist, with numerous reproductions of drawings and works on paper alongside critical essays. Clean, well-preserved copy with strong visual presence. Includes Nathaniel Tarn ex libris bookplate, adding desirable provenance from the library of the noted poet and anthropologist, born Edward Michael Mendelson. Light pencil notation to front, otherwise a sharp example of an increasingly sought after European exhibition catalog.
