// Jacob Kassay’s Untitled 1/10 (Radikal) is a 2013 lithograph that reflects the artist's interest in media, memory, and the transient nature of information. This limited edition print features a reproduction of a Turkish newspaper page, possibly from Radikal, rendered in muted tones that give it a ghostly, faded quality. The print’s overlay effect and softened text suggest the passing of time and the fragility of printed news as a record of events. Kassay’s work often explores the boundaries of perception, and here he prompts viewers to consider the fleeting relevance of news media and the ways in which stories and images gradually dissolve from public memory.
Jacob Kassay (USA, 1984) is a contemporary artist known for his reflective silver monochrome paintings created through electroplating. His work, which bridges painting, sculpture, and filmmaking, engages viewers by transforming surfaces into mirrors of their environment. Exhibited globally, Kassay’s art redefines traditional perspectives on materiality and perception.
Lithograph Lithography is a printing method based on the principle that water and oil do not mix. It can be used to print artwork or text onto paper or other suitable materials. Traditionally, an image was drawn with wax, fat, or oil onto a lithographic limestone surface or plate. Today, metal plates and other surfaces are also used in lithographic printing.

- Jacob Kassay
Jacob Kassay (b. 1984 USA) is an American contemporary artist known for his minimalistpaintings and conceptual installations that explore the materiality of art and the processes of perception. Kassay gained early recognition for his silver deposit paintings, where he used an electroplating process to create reflective, mirrored surfaces on canvas. These works are characterized by their subtle interplay of light and shadow, creating dynamic visual effects that change depending on the viewer’s position and the surrounding environment. Kassay's work often challenges traditional notions of painting by emphasizing the physicality of the medium and the conditions under which art is experienced. His approach blurs the line between painting and sculpture, inviting viewers to engage with the artwork in a spatial and tactile manner. Kassay’s work has been exhibited internationally and continues to be a significant voice in discussions about the boundaries of contemporary art.
Minimalism is a style in music and visual arts characterized by pared-down designs and simplicity. It began in Western art after World War II, gaining prominence particularly in American visual arts. Minimalism draws heavily on aspects of modernism and is often viewed as a reaction against Abstract Expressionism, as well as a precursor to post-minimal art practices. Prominent minimalist artists include Agnes Martin, Donald Judd, Robert Morris, Frank Stella, and Dan Flavin.
