A mint copy of this outstanding post-war American artist's book, featuring a collaboration between one of the most influential American poets of the second half of the twentieth century, and an important second generation New York School artist. The collaborators "lived in New York City where they knew one another well for a number of years and followed one another's work with involved interest. Tiber Press left the choice of partners in this project to the individuals themselves, and, in collaborating, the poet and painter were acknowledging an awareness of some real relationship between their work" (prospectus). This is one of a series of 4 works of which the other three were The Poems by John Ashbery illustrated by Joan Mitchell; Odes by Frank O'Hara illustrated by Michael Goldberg, and Permanently by Kenneth Koch illustrated by Alfred Leslie,
