Dorothy Iannone - Danger in Dusseldorf - 1973

pp. (80). Offset-printed black-and-white illustrations and text throughout. Original printed folding card wrappers. Very good condition. Artist’s book, published in an edition of 200 copies, numbered and signed in pencil by Dorothy Iannone. This copy is #97. From the early 1970s onwards, the book form became a favoured medium for Iannone, given its ability to combine text and image and accommodate the narrative dimension of her work. Danger in Düsseldorf is one of a series of landmark books produced by Iannone during a short period: The Story of Bern, Speaking to Each Other, With Mary Harding (1977) and Berlin Beauties (1978) are other examples.
