CRANE, MICHAEL - Lot 60
CRANE, MICHAEL Running Dog One and Done. Running Dog Press Magazine, Chicago, 1976, original edition, in sheets in a 30 x 25 cm paper envelope, titled. About 150 sheets, mostly photocopied, with the artistic contributions of Ken Friedman, Klaus Groh, Carl Johnson, Y. Matsuzawa, Endre Tot, Allen Ross and Horacio Zabala. Michael Crane 's introduction : "Running Dog One and Done" is the first issue of the Running Dog Press magazine. The attempt of this publication is to present the documents of the experiments and explorations artists are undertaking today on an international level. Its scope is to be inclusive of the reports and ideas of those individuals involved in research, and hopes to see the definition of 'artist' expand to include the contributions from scientific and sociological fields as well....This issue is a collective effort and is made available by the energy and contributions of all the artists included. ...One and Done' is unbound because this issue is not thematic and is a collection of various materials from a diversity of places and mental spaces. It is also unbound so that the readers can recycle the pages within their own informations system " In 1976, I published the first magazine of Running Dog Press, called "Running Dog One and D one". Half the artists were from Chicago, and half from around the world from the mail art network. The intent was to provide access to this alternative activity for those other artists struggling to make it here in the Second City, and I thought that mail art might provide a useful support system for discussion, experimentation and even collaboration-and sometimes it did.
