Artwork description

Painter and printmaker R. B. Kitaj collaborated with his friend Robert Creeley, a poet, to illustrate A Day Book. The 14 full-page illustrations represent one of Kitaj’s most complex print series and are his last major series of prints. The illustrations include four etchings with screenprinted imagery, one lithograph, one screenprint on canvas, one screenprint on acetate, two screenprints on heavyweight cream-colored paper (inserted loose in the book), and five screenprints on colored Asian papers. 

This is one of 25 copies of the Edition de Tête of A Day Book containing one extra screenprint unique to this edition plus other prints from other editions. This copy is numbered xxiv/xxv and signed by the poet and artist at the colophon. In addition, all prints are signed and numbered xxiv/xxv by the artist.
