Lucy Lippard | 5 Prose Fictions




Lucy Lippard
5 Prose Fictions
Los Angeles, USA: New Documents, 2022
16 pp., 21.6 × 27.9 cm., saddle-stitched
Edition size unknown



Originally self-released in 1976 through A.I.R. Gallery, New York, the five short unpublished manuscripts collected in 5 Prose Fictions offer an abbreviated introduction to curator Lucy R. Lippard’s largely under-examined fictional work.

The republication of these pieces follows the New Documents recent rerelease of I See / You Mean and provides further context for the release of Brimstone this Fall, an anthology compiling over 50 of Lippard’s experimental and narrative fiction works from the early 1950s through the 1980s.

The scarce original (seemingly not held in any major collection) is periodically offered for around a thousand dollars. The fifteen dollar reprint is only available directly from New Documents, here
