Vintage reference photograph of John Carpenter on the set of the 1988 film. Based on the 1963 short story "Eight O'Clock in the Morning" by Ray Nelson. John Nada (professional wrestler Roddy Piper) discovers a pair of sunglasses that reveal the culture is being ruled by aliens, who conceal their appearance and condition people, to consume, breed, work, and "obey." A cult favorite whose influence continues to ripple through the culture and counterculture, maybe most notably in the work of artist Shepard Fairey, whose "Obey" silkscreens (openly acknowledged to have been appropriated from the movie) have appeared on everything from street art to skateboards to clothing. Shot on location in Los Angeles, California. 8 x 10 inches. Near Fine.

Emphasizing questions of autonomy, critical intelligence and artistic intention, Witness to Her Art presents works by Adrian Piper, Mona Hatoum, Cady Noland, Jenny Holzer, Kara Walker, Daniela Rossell and Eau de Cologne, a magazine published by gallerist Monika Sprüth. The artworks are accompanied by original writings by the artists, contemporaneous criticism and newly commissioned essays by Pamela Franks, Aruna D'Souza, Johanna Burton, David Levi Strauss, Hamza Walker and Cuauhtémoc Medina. The ambitious works presented and interpreted herein invite us to consider the impact of the feminist revolution across generations while rendering obsolete any stigma associated with shows or catalogues limited to women artists. Taking its lead from Conceptualism, feminism, and from its included artists, Witness to Her Art reaches for art history's capacity as a medium of world-making." -- publisher's statement.

"Peter Piper?s Practical Principles of Plain and Perfect Pronunciation plays a game of old and new. It is based on a famous early nineteenth-century American ?reader' - the very source of the Peter Piper pickled pepper tongue twister - which the editors have reprinted in full, with a brief scholarly commentary on the original edition. But the book is actually an advertisement and design sampler for the Mergenthaler Linotype Company, the manufacturers of the most up-to-date typesetting equipment of the 1920s. Mergenthaler commissioned a literal Who?s Who of graphic designers of the period to create the book, each of whom was asked to design one spread, for one alphabetical rhyme, in their own style. The catalogue is a précis of American illustration and page design of the period, with designs that range from traditional to full-on Moderne." (website des Museum of Arts Boston).

"Aside from the John Weber Gallery Invitational, a group show he curated in the summer of 1975, Lives was Jeffrey Deitch's first curatorial project. The theme of Lives was artists who deal with peoples' lives (including their own) as the subject and/or medium of their work. In more simplified terms (the subtitle of the exhibition): artists who use life as their medium. Much of the most exciting new art in the mid-1970s was performative. Lives was one of the first exhibitions to bring together the new generation of artists who fused life and art with artists like Joseph Beuys and Andy Warhol who inspired this new direction. The exhibition took place in an abandoned office building on the corner of Franklin and Hudson Streets in New York City. All of the artists were invited to create pages for the xeroxed catalogue which is now a collectors item. The following excerpt from the catalogue text amplifies the theme of the show: For the "Post-Conceptual" artists in the Lives exhibition, the most fertile area of art activity has become the investigation of the artist and his environment, and as an extension, the study of people in general in their confrontation with the creative decision-making process. The forces in peoples' lives that cause art to be created, and the questions about the relationship between art and life have always been of great importance to artists, but now they have a special meaning in terms of the esthetic progression beyond Formalism and the Formalist bias of the Minimal and Conceptual movements. The most interesting recent work refers not to the object itself, but to the forces that shape creative activity. As Dennis Oppenheim sings in the song that accompanies the spastic dance of his self-portrait marionette in the Lives show, "It ain't what you make, it's what makes you do it!" -- from Jeffrey Deitch Curatorial Projects website.
