Housed in plain white paper-over-board covers, it is comprised of two bound sections of differing heights, the back of which is glued to the interior rear card cover, in a spin on the ‘monograph as dossier’ format. Absalon built a considerable ouevre during his sadly brief life (he died in 1993 at the age of 28), and this austerely designed volume effectively constitutes an Absalon catalogue raisonné. |
