Le Point d'Ironie : Marcel Dzama and Raymond Pettibon

description

Issue Number 59 of Le Point d''Ironie featuring a collaborative works by Marcel Dzama and Raymond Pettibon. Published by Agnés B, edited by Hans-Ulrich Obrist. "Their collaboration began in Summer 2015 with the artists swapping the first of a series of drawings to be completed by the other. In a variation of the ''exquisite corpse'' method in which a partner is only given portions of an otherwise concealed drawing to work on, Dzama and Pettibon developed each other''s compositions through illustrations, collage, and writing. Just as the surrealists invented the technique in the early twentieth century as a playful and ultimately enriching exercise, the present drawings combine the two artists'' distinct styles in a revealing and often seamless fashion. In several works, it is almost impossible to determine who made what, which indicates how both strove to assimilate the other''s vision or anticipate his response." -- publisher''s statement.
