Jean Tinguely
Méta
Stockholm, Sweden: Moderna Museet, 1972
363 pp., 31 x 23 x 3 cm., briefcase
Edition of 250 signed and numbered copies
A beautifully produced catalogue housed in a briefcase with handle and locking metal latch. The book features 519 illustrations, 34 transparent paper pages, 6 fold out plates, a 33 rpm vinyl record and a Méta-matique drawing (made by machine) signed in pencil by the artist.
From what I can tell, Thames & Hudson in London also issued 250 copies, and in 1975 the New York Graphic Society released another 250. Other appear to exist from France and Berlin, as well as the more conventional "trade" issue of the volume, minus the drawing and case.
