This year's Editions / Artists' Book Fair will be held November 3 - 8, 2006, at The Tunnel, 261 Eleventh Avenue (between West 27th and West 28th Streets) in New York City. A benefit opening for P.S. 1 will be held on November 2, from 6 to 8 PM.

Part artists' book, part graphic novel, and part children’s book, the silver ink of "HENRY THE NAVIGATOR IN A SEA OF SAND," when flipped, becomes the gold ink within "ENRIQUE EL NAVEGANTE EN UN MAR DE ARENA." The book also features ??bilingual texts in English & Spanish.

"In the words of Lawrence Weiner, who prefers to let his work speak for itself, “It is about building something. And the forces that be.”

"Henry the Navigator in a Sea of Sand," was published by Lawrence Markey, San Antonio, Texas in conjunction with his current Lawrence Weiner exhibition.
