Description
 
Medium: original offset lithograph and mixed media collage. Catalogue reference: Gemini 276. Executed in 1971; this impression was published by Gemini G.E.L. the same year. Size: 10 3/8 x 8 3/8 inches (262 x 213 mm). This multiple consists of a real paintbrush and three actual watercolor paint cakes mounted onto a two-color offset lithograph. Jasper Johns invites you to collaborate with him and complete the work, creating your own version of his Target. Signed in the plate (not by hand).

This work was originally mounted inside a hinged white plastic clamshell case (it has become detached from the case). The case and the Gemini "Technics and Creativity" catalog that accompanied the art work are also included in the sale. A vintage Pop Art classic, and one of the few examples of Jasper Johns' "Target 1970" that still survive.
