= Number 22 of a series of 25 marked "A" on "imit. bøttepapir". This text on aesthetics ('Risk and Change') was written by Asger Jorn during his hospitalization with tuberculosis in Silkeborg Sanatorium. He printed the book on the small handpress of the Sanatorium in cooperation with the institute's typographer Johs. Gregersen, thus explaining the typographical irregularities ("håndtrykt på en korrekturpresse, hvilken udførelse forklarer de mange unreglmaessigheder" [colophon]). Although the colophon states that 109 copies were printed, in reality only 20 or 30 copies were produced. Extremely rare. Provenance: the estate of Constant Anton Nieuwenhuys. This lot is subject to 4% resale royalties ('droit de suite') over the total amount of hammerprice and buyer's premium.
- Bookblock sl. loosening. One of 2 binding threads broken; covers trifle yellowed.
= This copy SIGNED in pencil by both authors. Monod 3532; G. Berréby, Textes et documents situationnistes, 1957-1960, p.96: "La collaboration de Guy Debord à Fin de Copenhague, petit livre spontané fait en vingt-quatre heures, a été plutôt remarquée: les effets s'en sont répandus avec une étonnante vitesse, en quelques mois, parmi les spécialistes du livre d'art et de la typographie, en Amérique et en Europe. Ce rayonnement d'influence n'a pas cessé de s'enchaîner depuis". Revolutionary collaboration between the most important founders of the Situationist International. The cover, made from the printing plates of a Danish newspaper, is slightly different for each copy. The title can be understood as the end of Cobra, the movement with which Jorn had just broken. Provenance: the estate of Constant Anton Nieuwenhuys.

Slingsy and Vladimir Dixon. "Sheets of this edition were later sold by Shakespeare and Company to both Faber & Faber, London, and New Directions, Norfolk, Connecticut, who bound them with inserted title pages. The "Letters of Protest" are reputed to have been written by Joyce himself" (Slocum/ Cahoon p.78).
