Untitled (Oilfields) - Proof before Printing, signed on front

2004

About the Item

Untitled (Oilfields), 2004 60x60cm, Proof b4 Printing, Analog C-Print, hand-printed by the artist, based on the original Polaroid, signed in front. Artist Inventory No. 1202. Not mounted. What exactly is a proof before printing? The proofs are part of the printing process. They are usually the few last color trials before printing the edition. They are usually not perfectly color-corrected yet. Sometimes a proof might be close in color but we still have to re-print to bring everything together. Proofs are by definition imperfect and part of the natural evolution of a print. Sometimes there is no white border or a kink. A proof is a proof of one step on the way to making a print edition. They are by definition, imperfect. Wabi-Sabi. OILFIELDS, 2004 Oilfields connotes both the notion of the frontier and the adventurous mentality of the West, and a kind of horizontal understanding of landscape that is so quintessential about the West. While it circumscribes the West's idiosyncratic historical and physical manifestations, it also stands for a concept that is slowly fading into the past as a new era emerges.
