Leporello 2

Artist's Book
1989 (published)
Artist/Maker
Place of origin

'Leporello 2' consists of eighteen black-and-white photographs of a man holding a black staff in front of a light background. The sequence seems to depict movement, an effect enhanced by the concertina form as it is visible from all sides.

'Leporello 1' and 'Leporello 2' both make use of this same sequence of photographs, with the artist in each case creating a different overprint.

In 'Leporello 2', Peter Malutzki of FlugBlatt-Presse overprints the photos with lines of different colour. The pictures are preceded by a motto taken from a quote from 'Natürliches Zauber-Buch oder Neu-eröffneter Spiel-Platz rare Künste' (Nürnberg, 1745).
