(Bob Seidemann) Garcia, 1972 - Original Cover Art. Chromogenic print, 20" x 16". Edition limited to 100, signed, titled, dated and numbered #1/100 with ink on front by photographer Bob Seidemann. Photographer's copyright stamp on reverse. Excellent condition.
The collage depicts a wheel of fortune above a naked female torso; a card of chance separates Garcia's right arm from his hand, with its missing finger, which reaches upward through a hole in the wheel into blue sky. The numbers around the four black knobs are actual coordinates for galaxies in our sector. The red, white, and blue evoke the American flag. The album made the Top 40 and is considered one of Garcia's most important solo works.
Estimated Value $1,500 - 2,000.
