Edition of 50 signed, numbered and dated copies

"Each number of this edition consists of a set of two sealed envelopes: one signed, dated, and numbered by Lexier and one signed, dated, and numbered by Monk.  As indicated by the text, each envelope contains another envelope (which is signed by the other artist), a circular play on what is hidden inside, like a set of matryoshka dolls.

This collaboration between Toronto-based Lexier and Berlin-based Monk was produced in two versions, a European version published by MOREpublishers (Brussels, BE) and a North American version by Paul + Wendy Projects (Toronto, CA), making use of the respective standard business-sized envelope sizes."
