Description

Pioneering conceptual artist Don Celender took a spiritual tack with his 1975 work containing 45 cards depicting twentieth century artists from Albers to Wyeth. Done in the same eccentric style as Terry Gilliam’s animations for Monty Python’s Flying Circus, the artists faces are pasted onto bodies of pious scholars, popes, bishops, vicars, cross-bearing Christs, monks, nuns, Virgin Marys, John the Baptists and avenging Archangels. On the back of each card one finds an illuminating quote from the artist in question.
