About this work

This print set looks like five crisp, black-and-white pages from an old envelope. Each page shows a different arrangement of straight lines and simple shapes. It’s almost like a doodle someone traced over again and again. The prints came out of S.M.S., a 1968 mail-art project that sent small art packs to subscribers. Westermann made these five lithographs for one of those packs. They’re small—just a few inches across. You can see these exact prints at The Museum of Modern Art.
