From the publisher: "Road is an artist's book composed from a series photographs that Christopher Wool shot between 2015 and 2017. Dust roads, gravel roads, partly overgrown or full of tire tracks, through desert and fields of rocks, through sparse woods and along precipices. Only seldom does a fork in the road offer a choice of which way to go, and though the place always changes from one shot to the next, it still feels like one long road traveled under the clear light of the Texas sun."

Wool, Christopher. CHRISTOPHER WOOL: Road. 194 pages, including 92 b&w plates. Folio, wraps. Berlin, Holzwarth Publications, 2017. It collects photographs taken by the artist between 2015 and 2017-dust roads, gravel roads, roads partly overgrown or full of tire tracks, roads through desert and fields of rocks, through sparse woods and along precipices. Wool's roads are not purposeful trajectories toward destinations but the roads of perpetual, endless motion for motion's sake. In Wool's black-and-white photographs, only seldom does a fork in the road offer the viewer an apparent choice of which way to go. And though each photograph comes from a different location, the place changing from one shot to the next, it still feels like one long road traveled under the clear light of the sun. Edition of 1200, signed and dated by the artist.

[Cited in Martin Parr and Gerry Badger, The Photobook: A History, Volume III. (London and New York: Phaidon, 2014)]. New in publisher's packaging. From the publisher: "Between 1994 and 1995, Christopher Wool shot a series of photographs in downtown New York City that he calls East Broadway Breakdown, after a street on the Lower East Side, the neighborhood where he lives and works. Taken at night using a 35mm camera, the pictures feature the neighborhood's signature streets, with their dilapidated storefronts and ramshackle staircases leading up to anonymous spaces. The high contrast images are often hard to read, producing, rather than coherent images, seemingly random forms that emerge from skewed camera angles. Like his paintings, Wool's photographs hover between abstraction and representation, forcing viewers to confront their desire for visual coherence while offering an alternative construct for picture-making today." An excerpt from "Ghost Dog" by Anne Pontégnie ("Christopher Wool, Crosstown Crosstown"): "A succession of images in undifferentiated shades of gray that immerse the viewer in this nocturnal world. Their realism has more to do with this subjectivity dis-solved in its context than with any hypothetical truth of representation. In his paintings and photographs, Wool might associate with stray dogs, neurosis, or debris: stains, drips, and accidents of various origins, pictorial or organic. This voluntary assimilation with degrading phenomena -- another form of humor, this time, black -- is the instrument that allows him to achieve the dissolution found in these photographs and gives him access to a singular vision: one that is street level."

Paperback. Condition: As new. First Edition. Risograph printed publication, 40 pages, sewn bound softcover. First Edition limited to 350 (and 8 AP) with this being 1 of only 75 DELUXE copies issued with a 9.5 x 12 inch photographic print "Cool Wool" SIGNED by Sebastien Girard. Risograph printed publication, 40 pages, sewn bound softcover. First Edition limited to 350 copies and 8 APs. This is a "bootleg" variant of Wool's now exceedingly rare 1989 edition. It is the same size as the original: 16 x 13 inches (41.4 x 32.7 cm). Unpaginated with circa 34 pages featuring Wool's large black lettered pairings of words. Like the works of Duchamp or Richard Prince, Girard's (re)appropriation of Wool's original in this instance means that his "Twice" version both copies yet takes up and complicates the original. By showing each of the 17 paintings printed twice (recto & verso) Girard's version forms new double-spread word combinations. The title "Twice" also suggests a second edition of one of Wool's most sought-after publications; and the book is presented in a black bag, another nod to the black blank covers of Wool's original, published in 1989 by Thea Westreich (New York) and Gisella Capitain (Cologne). NB: The colophon for each book shows the exact same number 75/350, and the signatures are both facsimile/photocopied signatures (the same for each copy); meaning that the entire edition is numbered 75/350, and is NOT signed by Christopher Wool or Sebatien Girard. CONDITION: New (the set). SIGNED From the publisher: "BLACK BOOK TWICE is a limited edition publication, with only 350 copies and 8 artist's proofs available, published by Sebastien Girard. This book is a variant bootleg of Christopher Wool's iconic 'Black Book' edition #75/350. In Girard's version, each of the 17 paintings is printed twice (recto & verso), forming new double spread word combinations. The title ' Twice ' also suggests a second edition of one of Wool's most sought-after publications. The book is presented in a black bag, a nod to the black blank covers of Wool's original BLACK BOOK, published in 1989 by Thea Westreich (New York) and Gisella Capitain (Cologne)." The limited edition of 75 copies includes the book and a signed and numbered riso print, depicting a card from the show « majerus wool warhol.'cold beer' the 'smudge tool' and other short stories » at the Michel Majerus estate in Berlin in 2020. An homage to Michel Majerus (COOL WOOL painting), certainly one of the first to bootleg Wool's paintings in 1992. Printed on 285 grs heavy card, signed and numbered by Sebastien Girard.

Berlin : Holzwarth Publications, 2018. Folio, gatefold card wrappers, pp. 184, 92 duotone illustrations, signed and dated 2018. 'In this artist?s book from 2018, Christopher Wool layers photos of backyard debris and dusty roads, of Texan wilderness and found situations rife with allusions to sculpture. Two realities invade each other, and their overlapping actualities collapse into an artistic reality beyond the moment caught by the artist?s camera. Thus the pictures are imbued with the history of their own making and filled with a vibrant sound close to that of Wool?s black-and-white paintings.' - the publisher Born in Boston in 1955, Christopher Wool is widely considered to be the most influential Post-conceptual visual artist of the twentieth century. Retrospectives of the work of Christopher Wool have been held at the Museum of Contemporary Art, the Guggenheim Museum, the Art Institute of Chicago and numerous other major institutions.
