Pat OleszkoPat Oleszko: All the World’s a StoogeNew York: The Kitchen, 1979. Offset. 24 x 18 in. Clean example; minor creasing, short closed tear to left edge, tiny nick at upper edge, minor toning at edges.Black-and-white promotional poster for the still-active New York-based performance artist Pat Oleszko’s “All the World’s a Stooge,” with a photograph of Oleszko by Nell Selkirk.The title of the performance came from a line Oleszko has repeatedly used, derived from what she describes as the inception of her costume practice. She had wanted to make sculptures, but her attempts kept collapsing, and as she was “[t]oo humiliated to withstand the derision of [her] mostly male cohorts,” she began instead to sew and hang sculptures on herself. In a 2024 interview with The Kitchen she said, “I was six feet tall and could carry anything I could make and—not fall over. At that moment, my art walked out the door and I began using all the world as a stooge. Everything became a platform.”Condition as described in catalogue note.

Walasse TingGalerie Birch exhibition posterCopenhagen: Galerie Birch, 1960. Stone lithograph. 35 x 25 1/4 in.Poster from artist Walasse Ting’s first exhibition at Galerie Birch, the oldest contemporary art gallery in Copenhagen.After moving to Paris in the early 1950s, Walasse Ting befriended several members of the avant-garde art movement COBRA, including Pierre Alechinsky and Asger Jorn—the work depicted on the poster here bears a remarkable similarity to his work. Although not a COBRA artist himself, Ting incorporated the group’s emphasis on spontaneity into his paintings. Alechinsky introduced Ting to gallerist Børge Birch of Galerie Birch in Copenhagen and recommended he mount an exhibition of the artist’s work, which opened on December 6, 1960. This show was the first of many exhibitions Ting would go on to present at Galerie Birch throughout the 1960s, 70s, and 80s.Founded in Copenhagen in 1946, Galerie Birch is the city’s oldest contemporary art gallery and is regarded as the leading European dealer of COBRA artists and their associates. The gallery is largely responsible for maintaining COBRA’s legacy as one of the major mid-century avant-garde movements.Condition as described in catalogue note.
