Description
2000. Segment of desiccated sugar cane (19 x 2.5 cm.), with text in Magic Marker by the artist. Signed and dated. The sugar cane segment is dried, but sound and not brittle; magic marker text is clear and legible. A food object by the visual and performance artist William Pope.L (1955-2023), the self-described "friendliest black artist in America". This work was likely produced as part of the artist's eRacism series of performances, which stretched from 1991-2000. Direct, but sometimes confounding statements on race, such as this one, can be found throughout much of the artist's work that involves text. "Pope.L was a visual artist and educator whose multidisciplinary practice used binaries, contraries and preconceived notions embedded within contemporary culture to create art works in various formats, for example, writing, painting, performance, installation, video and sculpture. Building upon his long history of enacting arduous, provocative, absurdist performances and interventions in public spaces, Pope.L applied some of the same social, formal and performative strategies to his interests in language, system, gender, race and community. The goals for his work were several: joy, money and uncertainty— not necessarily in that order." (Mitchell-Innes & Nash). Pope.L passed away December 23rd, 2024. Provenance: Roger Conover, former Executive Editor of MIT Press, publisher of William Pope.L, Friendliest Black Artist in America.

Berlin: Adolph Fürstner [PN A.5654F.], 1935. Folio. Original publisher's full gray cloth. [i] (title), [ii] (blank), [iii] ("Dramatis Personae"), [iv] (blank), [5]-250 pp. Text in German. With illustration by Lovis Corinth to page [5]. Binding very slightly worn and rubbed. Trenner 223. Mueller von Asow p. 409. First performed on January 25, 1909 at the Königlichen Opernhaus in Dresden under Ernst von Schuch. "[Elektra] ... marked the beginning of [Strauss's] artistic association with Hugo von Hofmannsthal, whom he had first met in Berlin in 1899. Having seen Reinhardt's riveting production of Hofmannsthal's Elektra in the autumn of 1905, Strauss was convinced the play would make a compelling opera. Not entirely sure he should compose consecutive tragedies, he nonetheless gave in to Hofmannsthal's pleading and vigorously began composing Elektra in the summer of 1906. As he had with Oscar Wilde's Salome, he set the play to music, which was finished in 1908 and given its première in 1909 as part of a Strauss opera festival in Dresden ... Elektra failed to outshine her flashier sister, but confirmed Strauss's pre-eminence among German opera composers confirmed Strauss's pre-eminence among German opera composers." Bryan Gilliam in Grove Music Online.
