THIS IS TO CERTIFY THAT THE PERSON SHOWN IN THE PHOTOGRAPH IS A COMPLETE STRANGER TO ME…. 1970. FOUR UNIQUE CONCEPTUAL ARTWORKS.

£1,250.00

London: s.p. (Collins), n.d. (1970)
Four separate original xerox sheets – each 27 x 20.5cm, 1pp. The sheet has a reproduced photograph of Collins and a text:
“This is to certify that the person shown in the photograph is a complete stranger to me and I agree to participate in an art work by giving the following information:” and the fields “Place/Time/Date and Signature”. Each of the four sheets have been filled in by different people and signed.
Collins has tipped all four sheets together onto a single 58 x 41cm sheet of card for a home-made exhibition.
Essentially this is a collection of four vintage conceptual art works by Collins who in the 70s was interested in the dynamics of strangers meeting new people (including the artist). Such works are mentioned in Lucy Lippard’s Dematerialisation of the Art Object and this is a rare find purchased directly from a friend of Collins who was given the works as a gift in the artist’s last days.
All are in VG condition but are tipped onto the card using tape at the top.

PRICE IS FOR ALL FOUR WORKS AS A GROUP – BUT WE MAY BE WILLING TO SPLIT UP THE GROUP – PLEASE ENQUIRE.
