NAUMAN, BRUCE. Burning Small Fires. Folio, red- and white-printed card wrappers containing a large folded sheet (image area measuring approximately 37 inches squared) mounted at the inside rear cover, with reproductions of 15 photographs, as issued, faint toning to top of rear wrapper. First edition. Scarce copy of Nauman's conceptual response to Edward Ruscha's Various Small Fires and Milk, in which he graphically depicts burning Ruscha's book. An excellent survival.
