Cutting Out CONYT 6

Lorraine O'Grady's Cutting Out CONYT 7 diptych with fragmented newspaper phrases on Japanese paper, reflecting existential themes.

Letterpress printing dipthych on Japanese paper, cut-out, collage on laid paper, each sheet hand signed, numbered and dated by the artist. // Lorraine O'Grady's Cutting Out CONYT 7 is a mixed-media diptych from her iconic series, exploring themes of language, identity, and cultural critique. Created through a collage of cut-out words and phrases from The New York Times, each phrase suggests poetic and contemplative ideas, such as Do Something about the weather and Brings New Life to Becoming an Extinct Species. The fragmented text and varied typography invite readers to form their own interpretations, transforming familiar words into reflections on existential themes.

What is Lettrism?

Lettrism is an art form that uses letters, words, and symbols to create artwork. The movement was established in Paris in the 1940s and later gained popularity in the 1950s in America. Lettrisme is the French spelling of the movement's name, derived from the French word for letter.
