PARROT. Karl Larsson.
Edited by Kim West.
Published by Paraguay Press.
Design by Pascal Prosek.
September 2010. English.
Edition of 1000
11 x 18,4 cm, 80 pages, b/w, softcover
Parrot is the third book written by Swedish artist Karl Larsson, whose work consistently explores language, writing, and narrative in relation to historical and contemporary experiments in literature and art. Parrot originates from a research conducted by the artist on the work of Marcel Broodthaers, who famously withdrew from poetry and developed a fascination for birds — as in the famous piece from 1976 Ne dites pas que je ne l’ai pas dit.
Parrot by Karl Larsson is a 80-pages long poetical essay – or maybe an analytical piece of poetry – about the repetition, the dissemination, and the crystallization of words and their meanings. It is a book about bodies, containers, and documents. It harbors, generates and repeats poetical statements. A parrot is a bird whose body is inhabited by others: it mimicks their language and creates comical and uncanny resemblances. It is a very beautiful bird.
Karl Larsson – Parrot was produced in conjunction with the exhibition “Parrot” Marcel Broodthaers and Karl Larsson, at Index – The Swedish Contemporary Art Foundation, Stockholm, Sept-Oct 2010.

Little & Large Editions was set up to produce and distribute little and large editions. Our plan is to offer artists the opportunity to work with us on fabricating their ideas. We want to work with both little and large artists, the hope is that the large artists will help pay for the little artists and occasionally vice versa. Our goal is to realise things and make these things available.
Our aim is to run this company as a non profit organisation.
We want to make money for artists who need money and some for those who do not.
We’d like to offer editions that we would like to own and ones that you will want to buy. Any profits, both little and large, will go directly back into running the company.
We are proud to present our first edition with Dave Allen –
It swung back and forth, back and forth until forever. Then it stopped and howled endlessly.
A 12″ vinyl record with printed sleeve will be played and for sale at Motto or through our website www.littleandlargeeditions.com
Drinks will be served – dress accordingly
