“This poster featuring the painting SOAPY SMITH BABY DOE (1995) was produced in 1995, in conjunction with Ed Ruscha: Anamorphic Paintings at the Leo Castelli Gallery, New York, NY, 4/1 - 4/22/1995. The image spells out 'SOAPY SMITH BABY DOE' in a capitalized sans serif font which has been stretched vertically to extreme proportions, rendering the text very nearly illegible. It is impossible to decipher the words from most viewpoints, except when the viewer stands directly beneath the print, at its centre point, requiring it to be hung higher than eye level.”
year: 1995
dimensions: approx 36” x 20”
condition: excellent
unframed
