This bulletin by Douglas Huebler, number 57 in the series, contains two single artists’ statements on blank pages. This copy is adressed to Eric Ebbinge, Director of the Teylers Museum.
Published between 1968 and 1989, Adriaan van Ravesteijn and Geert van Beijeren, the founders of Art & Project in Amsterdam, produced 156 individual bulletins by Bas Jan Ader, John Baldessari, Robert Barry, Marcel Broodthaers, Stanley Brouwn, Daniel Buren, Hanne Darboven, Jan Dibbets, Hamish Fulton, Gilbert & George, Douglas Huebler, Joseph Kosuth, William Leavitt, Sol LeWitt, Richard Long, Charlotte Posenenske, Robert Ryman, Lawrence Weiner, Ian Wilson, to name a few.
Each bulletin was typically composed of four 29.5 × 21 cm. pages with a consistent cover design. The inside of the bulletin, however, was open to each artists’ interpretation. They became projects produced specifically for the medium according to the whims of their creator. The bulletins were not simply exhibition announcements or recompilations of previous works; instead they emerged as stand alone pieces of original art issued in a continuous numbered series for twenty one years.
