About this Item

Each volume is part of a small limited and variable edition, ranging in an edition size of only four to five copies per volume. Each volume is numbered and signed on the colophon by designer and printer Alicia Bailey. Text in English and Spanish. Beautifully bound in patterned leather over cloth boards, with inlaid paper title label to front. Illustrated from woodblock and pochoir plates on Japanese paper. The central image in each volume is a gate-fold, multi-run, hand-pulled print. Fine. These are the first twelve volumes from an ongoing series combining various print techniques with selections from Pablo Neruda's The Book of Questions. From Bailey's website, she states, "This series presents selections of both the Spanish and English translations from one of my favorite collections of poems by Pablo Neruda. Neruda's The Book of Questions was completed only months before his death in 1973. The collection is a series of brief poems composed entirely of unanswerable questions; a culmination of Neruda's lifelong commitment to revealing inner structures of thought and feeling that underlie all experience." Alicia Bailey is a studio artist based in Colorado. She focuses on book arts and assemblage, producing artists' books, sculptural books, and limited edition books. Alicia's work embraces a wide variety of methods and materials and has been featured in dozens of solo and group exhibits throughout the world and is held in numerous public, private, and special collections. An archive of her work in the book arts is under development at Penrose Special Collections, University of Denver, Denver, Colorado.
