Blue Peter. Sixth Book

In this artists book Jonathan Monk playfully mixes visual material from childrens TV and the elite, avant-garde art world. Its format is an unusual facsimile of a Blue Peter childrens TV annual to which, on every page, the artist has collaged private view invitation cards to exhibitions by major international artists of the 1960s and 1970s, such as Mario Merz, Lawrence Weiner, Sol Le Witt, Bruce Nauman and Joseph Kosuth amongst others. The book is published after the Jonathan Monk solo exhibition "Something No Less Important Than Nothing / Nothing No Less Important Than Something" in the spring of 2008. Edited by Dan Rees
