Wolfgang Schmidt - Vielfarbengedicht (Multicolored poem) - 1962

Frankfurt am Main: Typos Verlag, 1962. Printed in an edition of 200 copies, soft cover, numbered and signed in pencil by Schmidt, 34pp. This is number 164. Contains 30 color plates in black, red, yellow, and blue, interleaved with sheets of transparent paper, each printed with concrete poetry set in Futura font. Beautiful print experiments in color monochromy as Schmidt explores the format of the square through gradients of color that connect from one page to the next. Wrappers slightly browned, inside very good.
