About this work

This 1968 pamphlet holds ten small lithographs with one page collage. The images mix text, shapes, and rough brush marks. Colors stay muted—mostly blacks, tans, and grays. It comes from a weird 1968 art project called S.M.S. Artists mailed these pamphlets to subscribers. Each one was hand-assembled, making every copy different. You can see the original at The Museum of Modern Art.
