Original drawing in ballpoint pen in blue on wove paper, accomplished and signed by John Cage, Allan Kaprow, Al Hansen, and Wolf Vostell as well as dated 1986 by Al Hansen. The outline of the face, eyes and nose appear to be accomplished by Cage, whose signed name "John Cage" constitutes the nostrils, beneath which Allan Kaprow's name composes a mustache over a mouth, while the figure's hair is clearly accomplished by Hansen, whose name and title outline the head "Al Hansen Kunstlaboratorium Köln." In a lighter, rather faded ink, "Vostell" forms the right eye. Previously exhibited in “The Art of Collecting” at the Museum Kunst Palast Düsseldorf Foundation, 2007. In fine condition.  7.8 x 10.5 inches (26 x 19.5 cm).   Read More...
