Art Saves Lives, 1975

 Item — Box 609: [Barcode: 31858073143566]
Identifier: CC-34079-35759
Scope and Contents

The postcards are arranged and pasted in the style of Jiri Kolar collages. On the verso, there is a cryptic rubberstamped message, "just what is it that makes hamilton so different, so appealing." Hamilton might refer to a small town and the image on the recto is of three children in front of a large country house.The collage is addressed to ulises carrion. *WEB comments: Peter van Beveren 2001: I just wanted to inform you that the stamped text 'Just what is it that makes Hamilton so different', etc. does NOT refer to a small town, but is a paraphrase of the title given by the British Pop artist Richard Hamilton to his first collage, the beginning of the POP ART:' Just what is it that makes today's homes so different, so appealing'. I used this stamp from 1971 till 1975 in my correspondence with Richard Hamilton and now and than I stamped it on other cards, as the copy to Ulises Carrion, now in the Sackner Archive. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
