Cutting Out CONYT (1977/2017) 25 Diptychs and 1 Manifesto Letterpress printing on Japanese paper, cut-out, collage on laid paper Size: each 106 x 76 cm Edition: 12 + 1 (Edition numbers 1, 2, 8 and 9 only available as complete set) Each sheet hand signed, numbered and dated Printed at Atelier für Druckgraphik, Germany. Cutting Out CONYT engages with the counter-confessionalism of O’Grady's 1977 poems and transforms it via its diptych format into something distinctly other, refuting hierarchical binaries through its two-panel presentation—a recurring device in the artist’s work that insists on “both/and” rather than “either/or.” This structure allows O’Grady to question apparent oppositions between her voices while maintaining their productive tensions, siting her work in the interstitial space between the personal and political, inner and outer, post-black and black. Ultimately, O’Grady summarizes, “There was no extrication of the personal from the political, because these qualities were not opposites but obverse and reverse of the same coin.”

Girl Now meets Girl Then (2019) 22 individual works on paper Acrylic painting and/or acrylic ink and aquarell ink painting on Pigment Ink Fine Art Prints Hahnemühle 1584 Laid Rag Paper 300 gram Size: each 120 x 80 cm Edition: 10 (Due to the work process all works are kind of unique) Each hand signed and archival-numbered in pencil on the back. Rose Wylie, born 1934, paints, glues, collages, tears apart and stitches together vibrant, energetic sceneries — every piece growing across the paper, like a garden of both personal memories and impressions of popular culture. Girl Now meets Girl Then, this new series of large-scale hand-finished prints is based on the original pages from Clothes I Wore, a notebook and collection of drawings depicting the artist’s most memorable garments. Rose Wylie shows that there is no such thing as difference between private and public, memory and impression: ‚A diary can become history if better known.‘ (Rose Wylie).
