Description: artists' book Artist's book / multiple by Anna Gaskell produced by the Peter Norton Family as their 2001 Christmas project sent to friends and artworld colleagues. "This piece revives the antiquated form of the 'peep show," a toy-like device resembling a private, miniature theater that was popular in the 19th Century. As we look through the peep hole to the scene inside the bellows, we see a deep, mossy well inhabited by siren-like figures gesturing toward a floating body that appears to be beyond their grasp. When we flip the object and look through the back, this soul returns our stare." -- Publisher's statement. Includes the tunnel book / multiple by Gaskell and a book cloth and book board belly band held closed by a white satin ribbon. Also includes a die cut introduction card. cloth boards issued without dust jacket offset-printed accordion die-cut black-and-white & color 15.3 x 17.8 cm. One inch of purple cloth is faded lighter pink on all four sides of the main work. Otherwise in perfect condition.
