13 Variations / Williams, Emmett., 1965

 Item
Identifier: CC-37687-39561
Scope and Contents

This work is also designated Mat Mot No.6. The piece consists of six words written by Gertrude Stein, "when this you see remember me," a color assigned to each word. Each print doubles the number of words from the previous plate such that in the final print the 24,516 words fuse together. The work was made by handstamping the work on 72 plates, and the integrated result visible only after 78 operations of the color press. The stamping was done at full speed to achieve the fusion of words, not the spreading of color. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
