Condition: Fine. Number 35 of 75 copies, signed and numbered by Joseph Goldyne. Joseph Goldyne was born in 1942 in Chicago, IL. He came to prominence as an artist on the West Coast. He has been credited as one of the artists responsible for the rebirth of monotype and monoprint as valuable approaches to art. He is also known for his artist's books, often done in collaboration with printer Peter Rutledge Koch. From the Prospectus: "Joseph Goldyne brought this project to our attention, and the Press was convinced that this little-known oratory by George Bernard Shaw deserved wider recognition, one that Goldyne thought a most unexpectedly wondrous and humorous introduction to Albert Einstein, perhaps the most transformative and towering figure of the twentieth century. Goldyne's own introduction, " An Introduction to an Introduction," speaks to his discovery of Shaw's speech, its presentation, Shaw's record of condemning anti-Semitism, and his public support for Einstein. The full text of Shaw's speech is reprinted, together with Einstein's response, delivered in German and printed here in English translation. Goldyne illustrates the volume with five drypoint etchings created especially for this publication. They pay tribute to the featured speakers as well as to the sense of the event."
