Letter W from Alfonso Filieri, Italy

For participants of the "Project 26" - Alfonso sent us these images - please read the note below

My work W consists of a printed cover and an interior made with Japanese paper and waxed.
The cover was printed.
On the cover is the title of W. theme of the wind.
On the back cover the number and signature of the author as well as the full title.
Each work is original, unique.
ABOLISHED PHOTOCOPYING: we are not machines, we are simply men.
Advertisement for participants in the "26".
I plan to submit all work in an exhibition at the International Artist's Book Store. Followed by further notices.

Ciao a tutti,

Here are some images of Alfonso's beautiful contribution to Project 26. This should inspire EVERYONE! How's the great line - "We are not machines, we are simply men" :-)

"We are not machines...we are definitely HUMAN" (Then that includes women as well ;-)

This encourages me to send an original and NOT a photocopy to Alfonso! Because of the additions to my (duh) photocopied pages, each boekie for "H" will be not like any of the others...but, still, there is the photocopy. hmmmm, going back to the drawing board, see ya all later.

Compliments, Alfonso, very cool concept!

I always send originals too...reason why my muse ran away yesterday ;-)

It is a lot of work though but it is also a great satisfaction.

Looking forward to receiving your beautiful booklet!

cheers
