The lot contains:1. Roland Topor - Souvenir - of , Thomas Rap & De Harmonie, unpaginated - softcover - cm.Condition: good. Slightly discoloured, some rust around the staples. Because the text is crossed out and the belly band is missing, it is not possible to identify any edition or publisher.* A beautiful artist's book of Topor is “Souvenir”. In it Topor crossed out all the sentences, making this Fluxus book illegible and thus unsellable. Fluxus took action against the art object that only exists for commercial reasons.

Roland ToporTopor-SouvenirHarmonie /AmsterdamNo year of publication (= )Unpaginated (16 pp.)Stapled. cmGood to very good used condition (endpapers are slightly yellowed, cover somewhat discoloured and the crucialbelly band is also slightly discoloured).¶ In publisher Jaco Groot was talking to the artist Roland Topor in a Paris café. The conversation was about unreadable books. “I have made such a book,” said Topor, “tomorrow, same time, same café, I bring it.” The next day when Groot saw the booklet, he said to Topor’s amazement: “We will publish it!” The book was published by Thomas Rap, followed by a second edition by publishing house De Harmonie in . Later Topor was interviewed by Adriaan van Dis in his television programme on books. Van Dis gave Topor the unreadable book and asked him to read from it. Topor, unprepared, spontaneously put a hand in front of his mouth and started reading, mumbling unintelligibly. Publisher Groot is the only person in the world who knows which text was made unreadable by Topor (source: bieslog.vpro.nl).The pictures provide a good impression of this lot and show all the details.
