Publisher: Gemini G.E.L. Los Angeles - Suite: Casts from United - Medium: Original lithograph on Laga Narcisee Paper // Face by Jasper Johns is a lithograph that utilizes a bold red square as its primary focus, with subtle textural variations and intricate linework. At the center of the composition, a faint outline suggests the form of a face or profile, interwoven with abstract shapes and markings, creating a sense of ambiguity. The word FACE appears in reversed lettering, adding a layer of introspection and challenging the viewer's perception. Johns, known for his exploration of symbols and familiar imagery, employs red as an intense, emotive backdrop that contrasts with the delicate linework, prompting viewers to consider themes of identity and representation. The work’s minimalistic style and symbolic elements invite deeper contemplation of what lies beneath surface appearances.

What is Found Object?
A found object is a term used to describe a man-made or natural object, or a fragment of one, that an artist discovers or purchases and keeps for inspiration or as a work of art. The artist may also modify the object or incorporate it into a collage or assemblage, transforming it into a new piece of art.
