A word on Mikhail Karasik’s exhibition ‘Self-portrait’

written by Aleksandr Borovsky was the introduction to

Karasik’s personal exhibition held in St. Petersburg

in 2003 at the Ludwig Museum in the State Russian

Museum. The text is printed in handset letterpress on

8 paper plates riveted together at the left margin by a

single rivet. Karasik published a 200 copy edition. Each

is kept in a square cardboard slipcase repeating the

title within green margins showing fishes, insects and

some roots in the silkscreen print.
