Center #1
First edition. 8 1/ 2 x 11 inches. Double stapled with mild soiling to yellow covers and minor fold at top left cover, else very good. Limited edition of 500 copies.
Center contained a wide range of fiction and other prose, including considerable avant-garde dance and art criticism. Berge’s editorial philosophy was influenced by John Cages theories developed in his class on new music at the New School, by Jackson MacLows performance pieces at the Judson Memorial Church, and by Berge’s own work with the Fluxus Group.
The first issue set the tone as Berge invited friends to send her non-form prose from known writers. Center then became a forum for writers whose avant-garde ideas have become part of the tradition of literature. First Edition. Stapled.
