About the Item

Jasper Johns Target with Four Faces, 1968 Offset lithograph poster for Merce Cunningham Dance Company Limited Edition of 300 (unsigned and unnumbered) 35 × 23 inches Printed by by ULAE, East Islip, Long Island Bears artist's printed name, copyright and year The work depicted in the image is Jasper Johns' 1968 print Target with Four Faces, which was printed by ULAE that same year. Unframed Uncommon limited edition vintage Jasper Johns poster from 1968. A bright impression, rarely seen in such good condition. Provenance: Estate of pioneering curator and gallerist, Alice Denney, Denny was the founder of the Washington Project for the Arts and she served as the assistant director of the Washington Gallery of Modern Art. This poster was designed by Jasper Johns for the legendary American dancer and choreographer Merce Cunningham and his company. Founded in 1953 with composer John Cage (who would later become his life partner), the Merce Cunningham Dance Company quickly became known for its avant-garde and experimental performances that challenged conventional notions of dance. A friend of the dancer since the 1950s, Johns was his company’s artistic advisor from 1967 to 1980. After Cunningham’s death, he described him as "his favorite artist in any field" and noted the enduring impact his relationship with Cage had on his own partnership with artist Robert Rauschenberg. This poster reproduces Johns’s influential Target With Four Faces (1955), one of his earliest paintings depicting his most famous subject.
