$40.00

Le Point d'Ironie is a publication that originated between agnès b., Christian Boltanski, and Hans-Ulrich Obrist in 1997.

Six to eight issues are published each year. Each issue is interpreted by an artist who appropriates it, transforming it into a unique work of art. An atypical periodical in its free distribution, format, and distribution, Le Point d'Ironie is distributed through a dispersed model (100,000 copies per issue worldwide in museums, galleries, bookstores, schools, cinemas, shops, etc.).

Invented by the French writer Alcanter de Brahm at the end of the 19th century, the irony point is a punctuation mark used at the end of sentences (like an exclamation mark or a question mark) to indicate ironic passages in a text.

This first issue, Le Point d'Ironie #1 (1997), designed by Joseph Grigley.
