Discover the rare artist’s book by Sol LeWitt, *All Four-Part Combinations of Six Geometric Figures*—a brand-new exhibition catalogue in its original shrink-wrap, published by the Watari Gallery in Tokyo in March 1980. This small, portrait-format 12 x 4.64 inches (11.8 x 30.5 cm), staple-bound volume is a work of pure conceptual art: 16 pages featuring 15 full-page, black-and-white geometric drawings, with no printed text.
True to Sol LeWitt’s combinatorial method, each illustration superimposes four of the six basic shapes (square, triangle, circle, rectangle, parallelogram, trapezoid) according to a strict mathematical logic, rendered through fine vertical, horizontal, or diagonal line structures. This is not merely an exhibition document; the object itself becomes the vehicle for the idea, embodying the artist’s famous dictum that “the idea becomes a machine that makes the art.”
In exceptional, brand-new condition within its original shrink-wrap, this copy is highly sought after by collectors of conceptual art and artist’s books. A rare opportunity to acquire a historic Sol LeWitt piece that remains sealed.
