Description:
Address book documents the addresses of friends and colleagues of Gordon Matta-Clark from the period of his activity as an artist/architect. Much of the information is duplicated in his small black address book (PHCON2002:0016:021:003), suggesting perhaps that the smaller book was used on trips. Address book is arranged by location.
