Miriam Sharon’s ring-bound photocopy book—both a catalogue issued in connection with her exhibition Pulpitation at the Municipal Museum ''Bet-Emanuel'', Ramat Gan, Israel, in 1975 and, per the artist’s statement, an “artwork in itselfâ€â€”guides readers through “the flow of circumstances†that propel her Earth Works as they emerge from a period of rich and esoteric experimentation during which time the artist used desert spaces as sites for production, developing participatory, ritual-oriented work while living amongst Bedouin tribes. This first edition of this volume was issued in November, 1976, as one of ten copies, within a total edition of one hundred. Only a few copies are known, therefore it is difficult to say if this is one of ten or one of a hundred copies. In either case, it is rare.
