About this work

This print looks like a folded poster with plain text and two small black-and-white photos of a book. It’s not a painting but a lithograph—ink pressed onto paper, like a high-quality photocopy. The funny part? Graham turned a simple instruction manual into art. He took “Here is the ideal proportion for a book…” literally and printed it as a poster you can unfold. Cut a piece of this folded poster and look up Rodney Graham next.
