Dirt documents the objects, sculptures and installations, many of a temporal nature made by Les Coleman over a period of 40 years. His use of transient materials leads to an instability and fragility, and may remind us of our own precariousness. Through the poetic appropriation of everyday objects Coleman draws upon the layered meanings inherent in objects, making work that is at once accessible, curious and humorous.
Much of the work is of course now lost. Some of the installations integrate the audience as part of the work. At the same time, ephemeral and inexpensive items of printed matter have always been an effective vehicle for his work.
Includes an essay by David Briers

I have bought and will continue to buy this book as often as I can.
As a man much wittier than I said of Les Coleman and his work, "Les is More."
Indeed we all agree that he was.
This is an excellent company - I can recommend them highly. Their books always arrive in perfect condition.
Very good quality and although a bit smaller than I'd origionally thought, I love the quirkiness of it.
Love love love John Broadley's archaic but modern illustrations. I could look at these all day!
Guy Bigland was very, very helpful in locating a hard-to-find book and shipping it here to the USA. The book was at an incredible price, and the shipping was sercure, fast, and affordable. I would definitely shop here again.
This is lovely paper. Its excellent quality and 'organic' texture and colour was just right for some hand made books that I was producing.
perfect little book
I love the colour and texture of this plant fibre paper. Thicker than ordinary paper with a slightly raised texture in parts. Obviously wouldn't suit some art forms with the texture but is great for my purpose making books which can be written or drawn on with acrylic paint pens. Like the choice of neutral colours,
Excellent reference

A great book for the money. This is a gift for someone so haven’t read it.
Bought for my son who’s really into fonts and typefaces and he loved it.
Seems very good value for money. Haven’t tried it as it is a Christmas gift.
