Cutting Out CONYT 2

Lorraine O'Grady's diptych Cutting Out CONYT 3 with cut-out phrases DRACULA IS and ready when you are on Japanese paper.

Letterpress printing dipthych on Japanese paper, cut-out, collage on laid paper, each sheet hand signed, numbered and dated by the artist. // Cutting Out CONYT 3 by Lorraine O'Grady is a thought-provoking diptych collage created between 1977 and 2017. This limited edition piece (12+1) uses letterpress text on Japanese paper, with cut-out words arranged across two panels. The phrases “DRACULA IS” and “ready when you are” juxtapose gothic intrigue with a sense of anticipation or readiness. The use of bold typography and the careful placement of text against the simplicity of white space draw the viewer's focus to the words, creating an open-ended narrative that invites various interpretations. O'Grady’s work often explores identity and language, and this collage exemplifies her ability to blend humor, mystery, and cultural critique in a minimalist format.

What is Performance Art?

Performance Art is a genre of fine art that is traditionally interdisciplinary, involving various art forms. It can be scripted or unscripted, random or carefully orchestrated, spontaneous, or meticulously planned, with or without audience participation. Performance Art can be presented live or through media, with the artist either present or absent. It typically involves four basic elements: space, the performer’s body or presence through a medium, time, and the relationship between performer and audience. The artwork consists of actions performed by an individual or group in a specific time and space.
