Martin Szufter
Historic LtEd Exhibition Poster for 1971 Andy Warhol Show New Gallery Agnes Gund

1971

About the Item

Poster designed Martin Szufter with the approval of Andy Warhol, using an image of a Warhol work from the exhibition The New Gallery, 1971 Silkscreen on paper 24 × 17 1/2 inches Unframed Other than this very one - we have never seen another one of these dazzling, historic silkscreen poster/announcements anywhere else in the world. According to a contemporaneous press report, it was created in a very limited edition on the occasion of Warhol's historic show at the legendary New Gallery in Cleveland, Ohio. Collectors: Nobody you know will have this (except MAYBE Agnes Gund, who helped found the New Gallery, though she, too might not have ever had one.) This is a lifetime edition - published during Warhol's lifetime - making it especially collectible. The exact number of posters created for this Cleveland Ohio show is unknown, but we know there were very few - and they just don't appear on the market. The historical significance of the poster, and the exhibition, cannot be overestimated. The New Gallery in fact, is the original name for MOCA Cleveland. MoCa Cleveland was founded in 1968 by Marjorie Talalay, Nina Castelli Sundell and Agnes Gund as The New Gallery to showcase contemporary art and introduce it to Clevelanders with the works of cutting edge artists such as Christo, Jasper Johns, Laurie Anderson and of course Andy Warhol. According to an article on October 31, 1971 in the Cleveland Plain Dealer (see attached jpeg of a copy of the article), this show was Warhol's "first considerable one-man show in this area...Works to be shown include prints and paintings ranging from some of artist Warhol's early I. Miller shoe takeoffs to silkscreened Dayglo Campbell's Soup prints and pictures of Marilyn, Liz and Jackie..." The article also specifically states that a "small edition" poster designed by Martin Szufter will be available for sale. In 1974, three years after this memorable Warhol exhibition, the New Gallery became a non-profit, and in 1984, changed its name to Cleveland Center for Contemporary Art. In 2002, the organization’s name was changed again to Museum of Contemporary Art (moCa) Cleveland. In 2006, moCa announced relocation plans, and in 2011, broke ground for its new building.

  • Danish exhibition poster for "Photographs by Jim Dine" (hand signed by Jim Dine)
    By Jim Dine
    Located in New York, NY
    JIM DINE This is How I Remember Now (Hand Signed), 2008 Offset Lithograph Poster for exhibition of photographs by Jim Dine 32 × 24 inches Signed boldly in white marker by Jim Dine on the front Unframed Published by: Det Kongelige Bibliotek, Denmark Provenance: Jim Dine personally signed it for the present owner in 2012 at a special poetry reading that the artist gave at the Dia Art Foundation. Extremely rare when hand signed! This poster was produced in conjunction with a 2008 German exhibition of Jim Dine's photographs. Jim Dine personally signed it for the present owner in 2012 at a poetry reading that the artist gave at the Dia Art Foundation, so provenance is direct and impeccable. The text on the poster reads "This Is How I Remember Now Portraits", with a portrait of the artist juxtaposed in the background - and is perhaps as a commentary on the elusiveness of memory in life, art and photography. The poster is accompanied by a copy of the flyer publicizing the event where Jim Dine signed...

    By Ushio Shinohara
    Located in Surfside, FL
    Ushio Shinohara (born 1932, Tokyo), nicknamed “Gyu-chan”, is a Japanese Neo-Dadaist artist. His bright, large work has been exhibited internationally at institutions including the Hara Museum of Contemporary Art, Centre Georges Pompidou, the Guggenheim Museum SoHo, National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo, Leo Castelli Gallery, New York, Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Seoul and others. Shinohara and his wife, Noriko, are the subjects of a documentary film by Zachary Heinzerling called Cutie and the Boxer (2013). Shinohara's parents instilled in him a love for painters such as Paul Cézanne, Vincent Van Gogh and Paul Gauguin. His father was a tanka poet who was taught by Wakayama Bokusui. Shinohara’s mother was a painter who went to the Woman’s Art University (Joshibijutsu Daigaku) in Tokyo. In 1952 Shinohara entered the Tokyo Art University (later renamed to Tokyo University of the Arts), majoring in oil painting, however he left before graduation in 1957. In 1960 Shinohara participated in a group called "Neo-Dada Organizers". (Masunobu Yoshimura, Genpei Akasegawa, Shusaku Arakawa, Ushio Shinohara, Sho Kazakura, Tomio Miki, Tetsumi Kudo, Natsuyuki Nakanishi) This group of artists showed their works of art in an exhibition in the 1960s called the Yomiuri Independent Exhibition. This exhibition was sponsored by a newspaper, was open to the public, and was not judged by anyone. This type of exhibition was a form of an anti-salon and was a stepping stone for Shinohara’s sculptures of found objects which acquired the label of “junk art...
