DESCRIPTION

Dzama, "Opposition and Sister Squares Reconciled":

Published by Gerhard Theewen. Marcel Dzama presents "Opposition and Sister Squares Reconciled". (2011). 28,0 x 24,5 cm, German, English and French. Salon Verlag. Limited Edition Nr. 87/200 with authors exlibris card.

This is an exact facsimilie (also in size and with the transparent printed sheets) of Duchamps and Halberstadts work "Opposition et Cases Conjuguées. Opposition and sister fields" in magnificant quality.

"I have chosen to have Marcel Duchamp's book, 'Opposition and Sister Squares' re-printed quite simply because I love both Duchamp and chess. In it's original printing, it didn't fare too well selling-wise and Duchamp apparently had a closet full of the books which he gave to friends as gifts whenever they came over to his home. Regarding the book's failure to sell, he has been quoted as saying: '... that the problem it poses only comes up once in a lifetime, even for chess masters". I also like this quote by Ernst Strouhal: '"Opposition and Sister Squares" is an artist's book for chess players and a chess book for artists." quote by Marcel Dzama.

Postage EUR (insurance included): Non-EU countries please ask! I try to choose the most cost-effective yet reliable way.

I combine shipping – you always pay just real postage! The packing materials are free.

I send with the so-called "Paketmarke" (for further information https://www.post.at/privat_versenden_paket_paketmarke.php) which is, in general, the most cost-effective and reliable way to send parcels to Austria. One feature is that the shipment costs are defined via the longest and the shortest side of the parcel. The weight is limited to 10 kg. The parcel is also insured up to € 500,-.

PM 045 = longest and the shortest side of the parcel is added max. 45 cm) GER=€10,79, other EU = €14,19
PM 070 = longest and the shortest side of the parcel is added max. 70 cm) GER=€16,24, other EU = €19,69
PM 120 = longest and the shortest side of the parcel are added max. 120 cm) GER=€21,69, other EU = €25,19

Therefore if you win more than 1 lot and the books fit into the same parcel, the shipping costs will be the same as for 1 book.

Important: Please wait with payment until you get my confirmation email, as the shipping costs have to be calculated.
