Color drypoint with chine-colle on Somerset Satin White paper. From the Artist for Obama Portfolio. Publisherd by Gemini G.E.L. Word of Mouth by Richard Tuttle is a color drypoint print with chine-collé, published in 2008 as part of the Artist for Obama portfolio. Tuttle’s signature minimalist and poetic sensibility is evident in the vertical column of checkerboard squares that floats within a textured, atmospheric field. The alternating dark and light segments suggest language, rhythm, or even a ladder-like form—perhaps referencing communication and progression. The rough, sketchy lines contrast with the structured geometry, evoking a tension between chaos and order. Tuttle's choice of drypoint enhances the tactile quality of the work, while the chine-collé adds a subtle depth to the surface.

What is Postminimalism?
Postminimalism refers to a range of art styles that emerged in the 1960s, following the Minimalism movement. While Minimalism focused on simplicity and impersonality, Postminimalist artists retained some elements of Minimalism but also explored greater expressiveness, experimenting with new materials and techniques. This movement includes various forms of art such as conceptual art, body art, performance art, process art, and site-specific works. Postminimalism represents a shift toward more personal, tactile, and process-oriented approaches to art-making.
