Alex has
selected three pieces from the Vispo/Asemic gallery on my art website (www.selbysart.com). Two of these pieces, FIST and RESURRECTION, were
originally mono and created in the mid 90s. The first version of FIST was part
of a sequence titled "Globe Series" in which different images were
laid over the alphabetic globe. The color version of FIST was created around
2007 by adding color overlay to the mono piece (making it a triple overlay or
vertical collage). RESURRECTION was originally created around 1996, when
everything I was doing involved two piece vertical overlays made on a copier.
This piece appeared in my last book-length compilation of mono vispo, PROBLEM
PICTURES (2003). The third piece here, TEXT, was created in 2011. This was
meant to bridge three kinds of art -- vispo, asemic and minimalism.The piece
was first posted on FB groups dedicated to those three genres.
