On behalf of the inauguration of solo exhibition ‘The Palace of Good Luck’ of James Lee Byars a gold printed envelope including a white card with a very small red ball was sent to a selected group of people. The empty card and mini marble should be considered a part of this edition, also the gold envelope is an important part of the artist’s vocabulary; hence this multiple consists of three parts.

Additional information
Castello di Rivoli has archived its own published Byars’ golden printed invitation card, shown on its website recto and verso. Apparently the museum is not aware of the content of the envelope that is an important part of the invite. On the first photo in the right lower corner one may see an unevenness most likely caused by the tiny red ball inside.
