peter beard's work has been reproduced in a massive book by taschen, and in the size that they were meant to be seen – some of them as foldouts. this huge book, limited to a run of 2,500 copies, has 200 pages of reproductions of beard’s diaries, punctuated with photographs, feathers, stones and other memorabilia, and almost 300 pages of collages. the smaller works are magnified to show every detail, and all color illustration are color-separated and reproduced in Pan4C, the finest reproduction technique available today, which provides unequaled intensity and color range.
this beautifully crafted book comes with a wooden stand and a companion volume that features an image index, early works and photos, a handwritten essay from the sold-out first issue of blind spot magazine and an interview with beard by stephen m. l. aronson. Price $2900
