Lithograph in colors on T.H. Saunders Waterford. Signed and numbered to lower edge,with publisher's blindstamp. Printed by The Arion Press, San Francisco and published by Mangnolia Editions, Oakland, CA. Literature: Hurowitz 31-35. The life and opinions of Tristam Shandy 5 (1988) by John Baldessari juxtaposes urgency and finality through a striking lithograph printed on T.H. Saunders Waterford paper. On the left, a blurred black-and-white image captures a man mid-run, his face obscured by a bright blue circle—a hallmark of Baldessari’s method of concealing identity. On the right, a contrasting yellow-tinted silhouette shows three figures carrying a coffin against a dramatic sky. The pairing of motion and stillness, life and death, embodies Baldessari’s conceptual engagement with narrative fragments, ambiguity, and visual storytelling. This piece, from an edition of 50 (+15 HC), was printed by The Arion Press and published by Magnolia Editions as part of the Tristam Shandy series.

What is appropriation?
Appropriation in art involves using pre-existing images or objects with little or no modification. This technique has played a significant role across various art forms, including visual arts, music, performance, and literature. In visual arts, appropriation refers to the practice of adopting, sampling, recycling, or borrowing elements—or even entire forms—of existing visual culture, integrating them into new works to create meaning or critique.
