LIGHTWORKS #22 - The Ray Johnson Issue (Birmingham, MI: Lightworks Magazine, 2000).
4to. 96pp. Illustrated throughout, with audio CD based on video documentation of Johnson by Nick Maravell contained in a plastic sleeve mounted to p.69.
The final issue of Lightworks, devoted to the art and life of Ray Johnson and described by its editor, Charlton Burch, as “an issue about the ‘atmosphere’ of Ray Johnson - the element, the ambient specifics of who he was and what he did. Years in the making, it’s an homage to the Ray Johnson who made communication, letterwriting, and otherwise unlikely creative gestures his art. It’s about Ray’s correspondences seen and not seen, sent or otherwise, and his notions of the world that he caused to flow between islands of friends, acquaintances and strangers.”
Includes contributions from Geoffrey Hendricks; William S. Wilson; Dick Higgins; Alison Knowles; Peter Frank; Charlton Burch; Richard Connolly; Ed Plunkett; Marie Tavroges Stilkind; Clive Phillpot; Matthew Rose; and others.
