John Baldessari's Deer and Octopus, 1986, etching of intertwined deer legs and octopus tentacles on a green textured background.

Etching with aquatint on Rives B.F.K paper - Signed, numbered and dated in pencil // Deer and Octopus by John Baldessari, created in 1986, is an etching with aquatint on Rives B.F.K paper. The artwork features an intriguing and surreal juxtaposition of imagery, typical of Baldessari’s conceptual style. The composition includes a fragmented depiction of a deer’s legs intertwined with the tentacles of an octopus against a textured green background. The unusual combination of terrestrial and marine elements, along with the cropped and abstracted presentation, challenges the viewer's perception and understanding of reality. The playful yet unsettling nature of this piece exemplifies Baldessari’s exploration of absurdity and visual ambiguity. The print is signed, numbered, and dated in pencil, reflecting the artist's commitment to exploring unconventional narratives through familiar forms.
