A copy is in the collection of Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam.
‘Why a World’s T.V. Convention? This has been the most asked question of the week in business and diplomatic circles, especially after the convention’s unexpected developments during the past two days.
Neither ex-president Nixon, nor any of the Mad Enterprises Inc., Videoheads or Fanfangos officials expected these results from what was originally conceived as a profit making projectas well as attracting tourists to Amsterdam and giving Mr. Nixon front page exposure.’ p.6
‘The Sets
The first appearance of the rock and roll band ‘The Sets’ on the strike day at the convention, was their most successful gig in their two-and-a-half years of working together. The group is made up of four P.V.M. 200’s and is between punk and new wave. Their record released on the strike day reached the sales record of one million dollars in less than 24 hours. ‘The Sets’ presence was kept secret until the last moment, although they had been heard rehearsing on the third day of the convention during a coffee break. No explanation was offered. The group will be touring in Europe for the next 3 months and are expected to release their new L.P. in a few weeks.
While discussions, arguments, demonstrations, suicide and a kidnapping took place at the convention, a group that began smaal but eventually grew into one of the strongest groups of the event, was the one led by ‘thelight from India’, as 3820 was called by his disciples from the very first day. p.8

JONATHAN MONK, Another copy of Richard Hamilton Whitley Bay-1965, 2015
14.5 x 10.3 cm
offset, 12 parts
edition 40 + 10 AP
each set is signed with initials, numbered
condition: splendid, although several cards may have some light postal scuffing
published by More Publishers, Brussels, Belgium
inv.JMon 125-pr
This is a series of 12 postcards, after a copy of Richard Hamilton’s original hand colored postcard ‘Whitley Bay’. Each postcard is a reproduction of the previous card and was sent by mail monthly in 2015.
The first card shows a reproduction of the original hand coloured card by Hamilton, hence titled ‘A copy of Richard Hamilton Whitley Bay, 1965’. To make a copy has been pushed by Jonathan Monk to an extreme by making copies of copies. Each following card (entitled ‘Another copy of Richard Hamilton Whitley Bay 1965’) is reproduced from the previous one. Due to reproduction processes in printeries a printer’s boarder trimming of a 3 mm margin (bleed) each time was applied in order to get a clean cut of the print during each print run. By repeating this chopping process 12 times, each reproduction of the previous card has become more and more a closer close up.
WJM KOK, Off Color (Crimson), 2019
7 x 7 cm
oil paint on canvas, wooden mini-easel; ca 11 x 8 x 8 cm
open series, unique works
signed, dated
€ 222,- plus € 12,- registered mail Track & Trace
When ordered, colour may differ from the colour shown above.
Striking in the work of Wjm Kok is his interest in open or closed series, i.e. limited in number as a pure consequence of a conceived system. He wants to make series that are not a goal in itself, but rather a result of a method to keep as far away as possible from an emotional choice. He likes to make work that is not hierarchical and that also does not refer to a pronounced uniqueness.
In the open series ‘Off Color’, Wjm Kok mixes a color directly on the canvas with the help of seven ad randem tufts of paint squeezed from the paint tube. The color is not easily predictable and often also produces a surprising effect for him during the making.
ANNAÏK LOU PITTILOUD, White Between The Darlings, 2014
folded: 11 x 15 x 0.5 cm
leporello
numbered, signed
edition 200, here nr 47/200
published by Barbara Seiler Gallery, Zurich, Switzerland
Annaïk Lou Pittiloud collects postcards, mainly bought at museum shops and kept as a kind of darlings. She exhibits them as pairs following logics that draw comparisons between different postcard reproductions of the same artwork. The pairs are mounted in a passe-partout with a little space in between.
In this edition Annaïk Lou Pittiloud created a distance between a reproduction of an art work and its description on the backside of the postcard by skipping the reproduced art work completely. Instead she replaced the front of the postcard with a description of her gallery exhibition at Barbara Seiler Gallery, i.e. “White Between The Darlings”.
Edition is available at Barbara Seiler Gallery, Zurich, Switzerland.

Descriptions of the term tote or tate for bags, meaning bags “to carry”, can be traced back to 1900. During the 1950s, tote bags began to enter into the main culture. Women primarily utilized them as practical handheld bags because they didn’t require much care.
