Item Description
This superb art from early 2007 is done entirely with graphite pencil on 8.25x8.5" sheet without white margins. The art is based on M.C. Escher's 1956 lithograph Bond of Union. Campbell's cover sheet reads in full "Bush-Cheney/State of Union/Escher/Careful Not To Touch Surface. It Has Not Been Sprayed With A Fixative." We sold this art once in Auction #192, without the two buttons for $1150. This time the lot includes button #50 of 50 in the 2.25” size and button #36 of 100 in the 4” size. In our opinion, this design is one of Campbell’s most striking and compelling creations which sums up visually what many people see as the symbolic unraveling of our national fabric. All three pieces are Mint. Comes with Hake’s COA.
