Who knows

FIRST EDITION. Limited edition of only 100 numbered copies, hand-justified in pencil on the bottom right corner of the front cover.

A fragmented poem by Francis Picabia, published by the inescapable PAB in Alès, enhanced with a provocative preface by Jean van Heeckeren:

"Picabia is the only example of a great painter who is also a great poet. Perhaps there is the case of Michelangelo, but not knowing a word of Italian, I cannot judge him, never trusting general opinion.[...]QUI-LO-SA? Are these poems? Are these aphorisms? Neither. It's a book. A book like you've never read before. And this book will delight neither fools, nor incomplete people, nor the indoctrinated, nor the blind, which is to say, the majority of people"

A beautiful copy of this very beautiful book by the great artist Picabia.
