Sobre este artículo
np: (Graphix Artist Press), 1979. First edition. Near fine.. Signed conceptual narrative of Vallance's effort to honor Blinky, one of "the billions of hens sacrificed each year for our consumption" (title page). A slightly morbid commentary on the difference between pets and animals raised for food. Vallance captures the process of arranging for the burial of a pet, using a frozen chicken he bought at the supermarket. BLINKY has been the basis for many of Vallance's subsequent works, including a chapel with bone relics from BLINKY herself. A rare copy that is both numbered and signed. 5.5'' x 8.5''. In original staple-bound black-and-white pictorial wrapper. Thirteen black and white photographic illustrations. [16] pages. Signed and numbered in ink to verso of title page: "Jeffrey Vallance Limited Edition 1/550". Very mild bumping to edges. A bright, clean copy.
