Make Up | Guillermo Deisler

 

Make-Up was published in 1988: a very productive year for Deisler as he produced several limited editions, his mail-art magazine UNI/vers(;) published several issues, all indicating that he was making a strong comeback to the publishing work he had suspended during the period of Bulgarian exile.

Make-up is a silkscreen printed portfolio with typographic and photographic visual poems. In total there are 36 visual poems: 9 printed in 2 inks on yellow paper, and 27 printed in 1 ink on white paper.
