An exceptional copy of a very rare and significant work by Robert Filliou that was produced in a limited edition of just 150 signed and numbered copies in 1967.

The work consists of 24 prints of artists’ handprints housed in a custom wooden box with sliding plexiglass cover along with a sheet outlining the details of the project.

Andy Warhol, who participated in the project, arranged for the work to be first shown in the display windows of Tiffany’s on Fifth Avenue here in New York City. The choice to show the work not in a gallery but a luxury department store is indicative of both Pop Art and Fluxus’ practice of connecting art with popular culture.

T‍his specific copy belonged to poet, performance artist, and one of the founding members of Fluxus, Jackson Mac Low, who participated in the project. A signed letter addressed to Mac Low from the publisher accompanies this copy.

This copy shows evidence of slight water damage on the back of the wooden box alongside very very slight staining on the backs of some of the sheets. Barely visible. Priced aggressively given these condition issues.

An extremely rare and important work, made better by the fact that this was owned by Jackson Mac Low.
