Issued by Serpentine Galleries, London, in 2017 for Wade Guyton’s exhibition Das New Yorker Atelier, Abridged, this group comprises three colour offset-printed postcards on card stock, each reproducing a work with printed artwork details on the reverse. The exhibition presented recent work made using digital technologies, including cameras, computers and consumer-grade Epson printers, through which photographs and digital information were transferred onto linen and paper. The studio was both a place of production and a subject within this process, its spaces and working materials entering the images Guyton printed. The postcards introduce a further change of medium and scale: works produced through digital printing are reproduced by offset lithography as portable exhibition matter. Their reverses retain the identifying information that connects each reproduction to a particular work, keeping the image and its institutional record together in a format intended for circulation.
