rare 1st ed JENNY HOLZER silkscreen wood postcard (1994) artist published

Description: *This card is rare and guaranteed to be from the original 1994 edition (self published by the artist). Printed and fabricated by Vandercraft, Prineville, Ore. Up for bid is a very collectible multiple by the acclaimed American artist JENNY HOLZER. In 1994, Holzer self-published her first edition of the well known set of 17 screenprint postcards. In 2000, a 2nd edition (identical in title/size) was published by Fotofolio/Artpost. In 2018, Printed Matter published a 3rd edition of 16 cards (slightly different size with 3 retired titles and 2 new titles). All phrases for these cards come from her Truisms series (1977-1979) and the Survival Series (1983-1985). The front and back of the card is screenprinted in red ink onto 1/8" birch veneer balsa wood, and measures 3.5" x 5.5" (9.0 cm x 14.0 cm). It is in excellent vintage condition with minor edge wear as shown. Please see my other auctions for more examples from the series. Free secure shipping to all US locations via 1st class USPS.
