Good vintage condition with light age toning, handling wear, and minor creasing consistent with age.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginal exhibition guide published for Ulrich Rückriem, Kunstraum München e.V., 21.3.1974 – 5.5.1974. The publication combines an essay by Hermann Kern (\u003cem\u003eErgänzung zu den Ergänzungsstücken von Ulrich Rückriem\u003c\/em\u003e), a floor plan of the Kunstraum, a checklist of six exhibited works, and an announcement of the accompanying edition of 27 offset prints (\u003cem\u003eKUNSTRAUM-Grundriß\u003c\/em\u003e), loose in a linen cassette, signed in the imprint, edition of 110, format 42 × 29.7 cm, price DM 110, available to KUNSTRAUM members only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cover reproduces the Kunstraum floor plan — Vorplatz, Zi.A, Zi.B, Eingang — in architectural line drawing, reflecting Rückriem’s precise engagement with space, geometry, and placement. The back cover reproduces a partial floor plan showing Zi.C and Bad, one of the drawings exhibited as \u003cem\u003eErgänzungsstück\u003c\/em\u003e to the gallery’s own architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIssued when Rückriem was establishing the sculptural language that would define his career, this guide documents his early \u003cem\u003eErgänzungsstücke\u003c\/em\u003e — works in which found stone or steel elements were completed through carefully measured interventions. The six exhibited works include forged steel bars (Galerio Paul Maenz, Köln), a found steel ring completed into a disc, and a found steel plate (Dr. Heiner Oettli, Fislisbach) completed into a rectangle. Produced just before his international breakthrough, the guide captures a formative moment in post-Minimal and Conceptual sculpture when process, material, and site became inseparable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRather than functioning solely as documentation, the booklet records the exhibition as a spatial proposition. Floor plan, checklist, essay, and publication data remain together as a printed support for an exhibition that no longer exists.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShipping and handling included in the listed price.
