Six Hands and a Cheese Sandwich

Joel Fisher

Six Hands and a Cheese Sandwich

description

Artist's book with authorship ascribed anecdotally to Joel Fischer. First parody of Edward Ruscha's artists' books with Ruscha's name printed on title and colophon pages. While the physical format is unlike other Ruscha books, conceptually it follow similar logic with six black-and-white photographs of hands following by a non-sequitur image of a cheese sandwich. Thus not dissimilar to a Ruscha book such as Nine Swimming Pools and a Broken Glass (1968).
