Entering Paradise
Mirosław Bałka's *Entering Paradise* is a limited-edition artist's book published by Edition Jacob Samuel in Santa Monica, existing in an edition of 20 copies alongside three artist's proofs, with six of those copies issued in bound form. This copy, numbered 3/20 and signed by the artist in pencil on the justification page, reflects Bałka's characteristically austere and contemplative approach, translating his preoccupations with memory, mortality, and threshold spaces into the intimate format of the printed book. The work's title evokes the charged, liminal symbolism central to Bałka's broader practice, suggesting passage and transformation within a quietly restrained visual language.
