Robert Indiana
Wall to Wall (signed twice with inscription and drawing)

1990

About the Item

Signed, Dated, Numbered, Titled and Uniquely Inscribed recto and verso in pencil, with two original artist's drawings "WALL TO WALL" FROM WALL: TWO STONE SUITE IV, WITH TWO ORIGINAL INK DRAWINGS VERSO, 1990 Lithograph on BFK Rives, with Ink Drawings (Signed, Inscribed, Dated with drawing verso) Measurements: Artwork: 40 inches (vertical) x 28 inches (horizontal) Framed: 44 inches (vertical) x 31.5 inches (Horizontal) x 1 inch For true fans and collectors of Robert Indiana, this is a special print - one of only two that is also inscribed and accompanied by two original drawings. You could probably find this print alone at a lesser price elsewhere - but NOT with two original drawings. First, the print itself is fully documented in the catalogue raisonne of Robert Indiana's printed works by Susan Sheehan as one of only two Trial Proofs ever created for the "Wall, Two Stone" series of prints. This is Trial Proof number one of two. But the entire edition of this work, numbered IV, is only 10 -- according to the catalogue raisonne. An extremely small regular edition, particularly for Indiana. However, in addition, this work bears a special hand dedication and inscription - with two original, unique drawings. Robert Indiana cleverly plays on words here, as the work is titled "Wall: Two Stone" -- and he personally dedicates it to his friend a woman who happens to be named Terry Wall (Capizzano), in pencil on the print itself (lower front margin). In addition, on the back of the frame, is the unique inscription in the artist's distinctive and inimitable hand, "For another Wall", signed Robert Indiana - again, so the work is boldly signed twice by the artist - once on the front, and once on the back. But there's more. In addition to the inscription on the back, Robert Indiana adds two unique drawings -- one of a star, (Star of Hope) and the other LOVE -- his famous theme. This work was a personal gift to a longtime local neighbor Maine, and personal friend of Robert Indiana from his remote residence in Maine - Terry Wall Capizzano. Printer: John C. Erickson and Herbert C. Fox, Vinalhaven Press, Vinhalhaven Maine Publisher: Vinalhaven Press, Vinalhaven Maine with the blindstamp lower right. Catalogue Raisonne (for the print): Sheehan, 141 The work is in a vintage wooden frame, covered with plexiglass; there is buckling/creasing to the lower right corner of the sheet; otherwise very good OS: 44" x 31 1/2". SS: 41 1/2" x 29 1/2" Signed, Dated, Numbered, Titled and Uniquely Inscribed recto and verso in pencil, with two original artist's drawings: one of a star, and one depicting the artist's famous LOVE work; Signed "R Indiana" and dated 1990 in pencil lower right; Titled "Wall" lower left; Numbered T/P 1 of 2, IV in pencil lower left and center; Dedicated "For Terry Wall Capizzano" in pencil for Terry Wall Capizzano"; Inscribed verso "Star of Hope, Vinalhaven, 25 XII 90, for another Wall, R. Indiana". Bears publisher's blind stamp lower right recto: Printer: John C. Erickson and Herbert C.

  • Hand signed letter of advice ("one either jumps into the water or doesn't")
    By Jasper Johns
    Located in New York, NY
    Jasper Johns Letter ("one either jumps into the water or doesn't"), 1996 Hand signed letter framed on top of a Time Magazine cover depicting a work by the artist Hand signed by Jasper Johns underneath a typewritten letter by his secretary (JJ/st) Frame Included This listing consists of a typewritten letter, hand signed by Jasper Johns in response to one sent by the present addressee. While we do not see the fan's letter that prompted this response from Johns, it's not too difficult to guess, as Jasper Johns replies, stating, in part, "I wish I felt I could advise you but I can't. One either jumps in the water or doesn't. There doesn't seem to be any in-between." No truer words could have been spoken regarding the artist's life. Underneath this letter, is a vintage Time Magazine cover, presumably from the same year, depicting a Jasper Johns Flag...
