REFORM.
Broadside, printed in several shades of gun-metal grey, with linocut by Mike Hudson; 58 cm. x 43 cm.; The Wayzgoose Press, Katoomba, NSW, 2003. Number 14 of 15 copies, signed by Mike Hudson. *The subject for the 2003 Typomania portfolio was Reform. "We imagined a kind of Tower of Babel, a dysfunctional, crumbling edifice whose building blocks were the initial letters of global institutions like the IMF, UN, NATO, G8 et al, which rose high into the skies but those who climbed it never made any progress. The structure was undermined by a circular arrangement of a multiple printing of the word "reform" trailing behind a saw blade which was sawing away the very ground from under the tower's foundations." Jadwiga Jarvis, The Wayzgoose Affair. The image also shows a businessman on a mobile phone walking around the top of the tower via stairs. A slightly different smaller version was produced for inclusion in the Typomania XVII Portfolio, an international portfolio of artists' prints, printed on Eiderdruck. Item #135440
