Limited edition of 5 copies
Ben Schot’s edition ‘The Nothing Door’ consists of 5 small and (partly) hand coloured prints on Fabriano Accademia 200 gr paper. The water coloured prints of drawings by Schot and older engravings by others measure 147 x 100 mm each and are wrapped in black Japanese hand dipped paper. Once unwrapped, the prints can be displayed side by side on the black paper. For each of the 5 sets of this very limited edition Schot cut and folded a jacket, also from Fabriano Accademia 200 gr paper. Each print is hand numbered and each jacket carries in pencil the title of the edition (a phrase from Captain Beefheart’s ‘The Host The Ghost The Most Holy-O’). This edition is nothing. A meditation in a forest of phantom woodpeckers.
