RIESE, Beatrice, and Donald Kuspit. "Beatrice Riese: Letters Without Text." Butler and Tanner; London, UK, 2002. English language. Softcover. Text and full-color illustrations. 44 pages. Unpaginated. Limited to 900 copies. Bottom of book bent. Notch at top of front cover near spine. Text clean. Wear on covers. Good. No ISBN. Beatrice Riese (b.1917-2004) was an artist and art collector. For her artworks that employ a grid structure, Riese may have taken inspiration from the work of Indian Space painters in the 1940s and early 1950s, including Will Barnet. Stephen Westfall argues that although those works are not structured using a grid, they share the same "interlocking spatial reversals and movements and fluid hard-edged style.".

Store description
I sell uncommon art catalogs, academic monographs, and prints, as well as rare ephemera such as posters and zines. I ship from Brooklyn, New York.

I started in the trade at the Wexner Center for the Arts bookstore, and I have previously worked for the Columbus Metropolitan Library, the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library and Museum, the Art Institute of Chicago's Department of Prints and Drawings, and the Indiana University Art Museum's center for Prints, Drawings, and Photographs. More recently, I was the rare book cataloger at Donald Heald Rare Books, for whom I worked the ABAA's New York International Antiquarian Book Fair.…
