{"product_id":"free-fall","title":"FREE FALL","description":"\"\u003cem\u003eFree Fall\u003c\/em\u003e was created in several steps beginning in July, 2001Ñwhen I collected a stack of advertising posters off buildings on the streets of Amsterdam. The serendipity of a period of rain had caused many of the ads to blur and run and to have already partially removed themselves from the walls. In a series of visits I tore down quite a number of them, and before coming back to the US, made a selection. Once back in New York I xeroxed a number of copies of the poster fragments in order to work out mock-ups of the collages, and purchased a 5\"X7\" artist's sketch book to paste them into. Over the years, since creating my first collages in the late 60's in Rapallo, Italy, I had begun several collage books, none of them completed, so I had some idea of what I wanted to do. I did further xeroxing in Provincetown, Mass. in August. Sitting outside a small cottage near the Wellfleet bay, I made the entire series of 154 collages in about a month.\" Ñ\u003cb\u003eNick Piombino\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"BooksWholesale","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44261342642337,"sku":"9780980365900","price":69.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0462\/1120\/3233\/files\/14mkerz-front-shortedge-384.jpg?v=1713929934","url":"https:\/\/bookswholesale.myshopify.com\/products\/free-fall","provider":"BooksWholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
