A propos de cet article

This is a LP/multiple, a 33 1/3 speed record in a frosted vinyl container designed by Robert Rauschenberg (Oct 1925 - May 2008), in original shrink wrap with 3 inserted different Rauschenberg's colored illustrated sheets: each is a thin plastic sheet in Yellow, Blue & Red; the clear LP circular Seal on outside of shrink wrap is also designed by Robert Rauschenberg states on the record "Special Limited Edition" but edition size unknown and it is not signed; the numbering is engraved on the clear vinyl plastic LP; published by Sire Records # 1-23771; "the artist designed 3 rotating soft plastic disks that are affixed (but removable) on the inside of the front cover, sheets size: 12in; the thick plastic holder size: 13in. sq with rounded edges; when rotated it interacts with the record and the other printed designs; all music written by David Byrne and performed by the Talking Heads, TRACKS: Burning Down The House, Making Flippy-Floppy, Girlfriend Is Better, Slippery People, I Get Wild/Wild Gravity, Swamp, Moon Rocks, Pull Up The Roots, and This Must Be The Place (Naive Melody); OF INTEREST: Rauschenberg did several other similar multiples to this concept to be viewed with sheets separated and with a light behind them; similarly these 3 sheets and LP could be separated with more space between them enabling them to rotate and a light could also be put behind them if you wish. IF THE BUYER WANTS, they can carefully remove these tiny round pieces of the adhesive rubber glue so they can be separated and move within the plastic holder. PLEASE NOTE: these multiples sheets & LP DO NOT come with a stand. CONDITION: the original shrink wrap has a few tiny tears to edges; there is normal yellowing to the clear/yellowing thick plastic holder, and a very tiny crack to the holder at the edge, otherwise in VERY GOOD COND.
