About the Item

"Untitled", 1991 (for Parkett 27) Lithograph on newsprint with handtorn edges, printed on both sides and folded three times, hand-colored with coffee by the artist, 22 1/8 x 13 7/8” (56,7 x 35,4 cm), printed by Maurice Sanchez & Joe Petruzzelli, Derrière L’Etoile Studio, New York, Ed. 75/XXV unique pieces, signed and numbered Robert Gober’s Edition for Parkett is a replica of a page in the weekend edition of the New York Times. The artist has assembled and invented a mixture of news items, advertisements, weather reports, and stock market news for October 4, 1960 . In the midst of wedding announcements and an item on Runt, a teenager’s dog that was the victim of veterinary malpractice, we find a story on the mysterious death of a six-year- old boy, whose namesake is the artist himself, born in 1954. We are confronted with Gober’s evocation of daily life that oscillates between the utter banality of domestic happiness and sordid drama. We react with indifference, or with a sense of self-indulgent or horrified identification.
