Relevos.
LIUBA. Relevos. By Leila Coelho. With 6 original cast bas-relief metal alloy abstract sculptures, each attached to a linen mount by Liuba Boyadjieva. Square folio, 320 x 320 mm, housed in publisher's original chemise and slipcase. Sao Paulo, Brazil: Julio Pacello, 1969.
A stunning piece of bookmaking consisting of an 8 leaf pamphlet containing the poem by Coelho on one leaf, and the six sculptures on mounts. Liuba developed an international reputation during the 1950's for her monumental aesthetic inspired by ancient cultures particularly Maya-Toltec, Aztec and Inca. The pamphlet wrinkled, otherwise a fine copy. One of 15 copies for collaborators. There were 50 copies for sale.
