Untitled
2017
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 2017 by Joan Jonas, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This is a black-and-white photocopied-style sheet of paper with handwritten text. The words are cramped but legible, filling most of the page. The edges are uneven, like it was torn from a notebook. At the bottom right, a signature reads *"Joan Jonas Feb 2017."* The text is a protest letter from artists against a travel ban. It mentions specific countries and how it affects colleagues. The handwriting is messy but clear—no fancy strokes, just direct, urgent words. Look up Joan Jonas for more on how artists use their work to speak out.
Joan Jonas is an American visual artist and a pioneer of video and performance art, "a central figure in the performance art movement of the late 1960s".
