K. Schippers - De ruimte van Henry Cannon / Henry Cannon's space (Drukkerij Rosbeek), Drukkerij Rosbeek, 1980, Nuth

 

Stiff decorated silver foil wrappers (softcover). 17th Publication of the series illustrating the creative printing by Rosbeek.

De Ruimte van Henry Cannon (The Space of Henry Cannon) is from the Dutch printing firm of Drukkerij Rosbeek published around 1980 (though undated I have seen listings that specify a range from ca. 1979 to 1983), it is the seventeenth in a series of promotional pieces showing off their printing talents. It is, as one can see, photographs made by Joost Guntenaar of a collection of crushed 99 soda cans collected by Henry Cannon. An alternate title could have been 98 Cokes and a Pepsi if one wished to bring an echo of Ruscha into the conversation. Surely the tongue-in-cheek "cola wars" punch-line fits but maybe an allusion to Warhol is better; iconic brand of Americana met with shiny metallic violence. Sculptures too flat for John Chamberlain but perfect for a printed page, recto and verso = one can. Don't bother with the unintelligible text by K. Schippers who seems in the midst of a pseudointellectual sugar high. (Jeffrey Ladd)
