Vito Acconci & Bernadette Mayer, eds.
0 to 9 The Complete Magazine: 1967-1969
Heavyweight bound reprint of 0 to 9 magazine, with early
work by more than 70 artists & poets. Published from 1967-1969 in
seven limited mimeographed editions, 0 to 9 was edited by artist
Vito Acconci and poet Bernadette Mayer. Seeking to explore the relationship
between language and the page, Mayer and Acconci brought together the
pioneers of 60's experimental poetry and conceptual art. Sol LeWitt,
Adrian Piper, Dan Graham, Ted Berrigan, Clark Coolidge, Robert Barry,
Les Levine, Robert Smithson, Hannah Weiner, Emmett Williams, Dick Higgins,
Yvonne Rainer, Aram Saroyan, Bernar Venet, Alan Sondheim and the editors
themselves are but a few of the artists and writers who appeared in
this publication.
The chronological development of the magazine provides a key understanding
to, and perhaps the only exhaustive investigation of, the interstices
between the concept-driven poetry of the late 60's and the pioneering
formation of conceptual art. It was the first to publish the works of
Dan Graham and Adrian Piper, as well as Sol LeWitt's "Sentences
on Conceptual Art" and Jackson Mac Low’s first poem series
governed by chance operations, the "Biblical Poems."
Softcover, black & white, 8.5" x 11", 650 pages, 2006.
