The Space Within: Paintings Graphics Constructions (SIGNED BY VICTOR PASMORE) (1970)

Paperback.  First edition.  Fold-out 10 panelled catalogue.  Scarce catalogue for a show of Pasmore’s abstract art at the Malta Society of Art in 1970.  SIGNED by Pasmore to front cover: ‘Regards to you both, Victor’.  Reproduces an earlier essay by Herbert Read.  ‘It is often assumed that Pasmore’s conversion to abstraction was apocalyptic’, Read writes, ‘but a study of the paintings between 1943 and 1952, a period of ten years, shows how gradually and how inevitably it came about’. Condition: fine.
