Co-lab had a return to the A.More Store exhibition at Printed Matter to celebrate the publication of A Book about Colab (and related Activities).
It was a great show, multiples by many Colab artists. I made a couple of flashing A.More Store signs, as well as some wax paper/tin foil and fabric jewelry. Here’s a few pictures.
I am in a group show at Subliminal Projects in LA called Art Access and Decay. The exhibition features work created in New York in the late 70’s and 80’s. Check it out here. I am showing cardboard jewelry.
As a result of looking through old work for a group show that’s scheduled for the spring, I found some of these bracelets I made as multiples in the 80’s. A great catalog of multiples by artists in Collaborative Projects at the time was created, I think sponsored by Printed Matter, though my memory is a little vague. My pieces, which were made out of cardboard, mirrors, cut up garbage bags, fabric scraps, elastic and the like were called Trash Tres Chic by catalog writers Alan Moore and Walter Robinson.
These are photographs I took with a scanning electron microscope of jewelry.
