Exhibition was composed of 57 individual works attributed to various artists all pseudonyms for Cenedella. This grouping of materials consists of color one fold, four page, announcement; a two page press release; and a five page exhibition checklist. Exhibition was a parody of Pop, Op and Abstract Expressionist art. "It is an impossibility to write about YES ART and convey all that it is and is not. The next paragraphs can only serve as a guide as to what YES ART means and does not mean. One must see YES ART, because it is of course the works of art that are YES ART's real statement. Although YES ART is a frank outgrowth of Abstract. Pop and Op art movements, YES ART is vitally different, because it transcends itself in each form and thus becomes itself, a sensual, uninhibited, beautiful and above all affirmative express of the times we live in or don't live in. It has been called a freak out of nowhere, going nowhere, staying as it has to in no place by itself." -- from first two paragraphs of the press release. "Manifestoes flyer, a new aesthetic expression know as Yes Art opened last week at Fitzgerald Gallery. It might be described as a kind of counter-Pop, that puts Andy Warhol square in the enemy camp. "Yes Art is a sensual, uninhibited, beautiful and above all affirmative expression of the times we live in or don't live in says the manifesto. 'A Yes Artist doesn't necessarily have to see anything or paint anything to create a painting. A work of art can be made merely by coming across an object that strikes an artist's fancy, and by signing it, he can make it into art.' Sure to it's manifesto, the gallery shows a single Brillo carton signed by Dillon Dillon for $1,000, plus fold-your-own for $4.95. Further variations on the Brillo theme are a stippled, Seurat-type painting called 'Brillo Pointilliste,' a cubist work called 'Brillo Descending a Staircase, and a Brillo trademark does in needlepoint by the wire of the Brillo Company treasurer, Mrs. John Loeb. . The gallery will give S&H Green Stamps (known as "the camp stamp") with every purchase . 'It's kind of a humorous protest against the promotional aspect of art today,' said Ed Fitzgerald, the gallery's director. 'The promotion, not the painting, is what counts. Some galleries today are simply circuses. So ours is a Yes circus. There's no reason to scratch eyes and pull hair. If we can get back at them in their own way, OK." -- Grace Glueck, "No! Says Yes Art," The New York Times, October 24, 1965. Very Good.
