Matt Mullican

This title is the book-form of a work by Matt Mullican, â? oeThe Meaning of Things (who feels the most pain ? )â? (2014), consisting of 676 collages and texts on sheets of standard printing paper. At the approximate center of each collage is a small image that appears to be a printout of an image procured from the Internet. Around the images are hand-drawn, quasi-calligraphic marks (in black only), curved, giving the impression of an â? oeorganicâ? form in the manner of ornate, rococo frames.
First shown at Rosenwald-Wolf Gallery in Philadelphia, 2016.
