London: Indica Gallery, November 1966. Exhibition announcement. 43x28cm. Poster printed in blue on pale cream paper, recto only, overprinted in pink. Illustrated with photographs by André Morain + artist photo by Jacques Monory. Quote from “Merveilleuse histoire de Pierre Schlemihl” by Adelbert von Chamisso, and text titled “La Mémoire du Vide” by Pierre Restany + exhibition history.
The poster, first printed for Castro’s show at Galerie Edouard Loeb, Paris, in May 1966, but issued here without the original transparent plastic screenprinted outer wrap and silhouette in blue to verso, was overprinted in pink lettering for the purposes of her show at Indica, which, as the lettering states, was scheduled to open on November 26 (in fact, due to the ongoing Takis exhibition, the show was postponed until January 1967).
Traces of old sellotape to two corners, and significant paper loss to opposite corners from having been removed from the wall at Indica Books; central horizontal fold, as issued; o/w Very Good.
