Happy October 1st collectors! It's Sara, one more time. The flu has most of us in the office down for the count so this note will be short but sweet.
It finally feels like fall and we have the perfect prints to mark the change of the seasons: Collocation No. 14 (NATURE) Left Panel and Collocation No. 14 (NATURE) Right Panel by Mickey Smith. This new pair is a brilliant follow-up to Mickey's enormously popular and entirely sold out MORE BOOKS and WORD STUDY editions. Like Austin Kleon's editions from earlier this week, Mickey's work aligns with our well-known affection for text, typography and all things related to books and media.
Unlike Mickey's previous two editions which stood alone, Left Panel and Right Panel are intended to work together, bolstering each other side-by-side. The images are excerpts from Mickey's first major public art commission at the University of Florida in Gainesville. The entire Collocation No. 14 (NATURE) is installed in the university's new biomedical science building on 40"x60" glass panels. The endeavor brought Mickey all the way to the Franz Mayer studio in Munich where she worked with a team to produce the glimmering final product: each photo was printed and fired on art glass and finished with engraved, lacquer-filled text. Sounds stunning, doesn't it?
Not quite so far from home, you'll be able to see Mickey's large-scale works on display at the NY Art Book Fair this weekend. Collocation No. 4 (TODAY)—a fifty panel piece printed on canvas—will be on display at the Invisible-Exports Booth #005.
