About the Item

Lithograph on paper (Edition of 25) Signed in pencil, l.r. Numbered in pencil, l.l. This print is offered by ClampArt, located in New York City. Joan Brossa (1919-1998) was a Catalan poet, playwright, graphic designer, and visual artist who pioneered the concept of "visual poetry," becoming widely known for his sculptural "object poems" and graphic/textual "visual poems." Brossa defined this work as "the expression of a poetic world by means of a visual code," also characterizing his often witty recontextualizations of everyday objects, text, and images as the creation of visual metaphors via "the language of things." In 1948, Brossa spearheaded the important Catalan avant-garde group and artistic movement, Dau al Set. Heavily influenced by the Surrealist and Dadaist movements, Dau al Set is best known for its underlying mission to translate the conscious and unconscious mind into art.

  • Dog Run #58
    By Michael Crouser
    Located in New York, NY
    Toned gelatin silver print Signed, titled, dated, and numbered, recto 11 x 14 inches, sheet (Edition of 25) 16 x 20 inches, sheet (Edition of 25) 20 x 24 inches, sheet (Edition of 15) 30 x 40 inches, sheet (Edition of 15) This photograph is offered by ClampArt, located in New York City. Please note that prices increase as editions sell. Michael Crouser writes: ““I find that when I am in the dog runs, I am nearly invisible to my subjects. . . They play like little boys throwing one another down a hill on the school playground. They practice in their play what nature has said they must know. Dominance, defense, breeding and agility. And I am often nearly on top of the dogs in useful obscurity, making the first pictures of my life that actually make me laugh.”” Michael Crouser captures the thrilling intensity of dogs at play in his collection of photographs titled "Dog Run." Crouser catches both rare and provocative moments, —split seconds of intense play that give an intimate glimpse into the expressive personalities of his dynamic subjects. The photos were shot in neighborhood dog runs, where the dramatic action is all about dogs being dogs away from the influence of their masters. The photos spotlight...
