In 1981, stamp and mail artist Edward F Higgins III painted Guglielmo Achille Cavellini’s body as a performance piece in red, white and green, the colors of the Italian flag. In 1995, 5 years after Cavellini’s death, the symbolic gesture became immortalized in music subculture as the iconic image made the album cover of “I am an Elastic Fire Cracker” by Tripping Daisy, an American neo psychedelic pop rock band. The cover art for the band's hit single “I Got a Girl” appropriates a candid photograph of Cavellini and Higgins mid-performance. Both artists acknowledge the photographer, making him implicit in their artistic creation.

LYNCH THAM's exhibition of Cavellini's ontological carbon series from the 60s and 70s will open 5 Nov through 21 Dec 2014. Please join us for the opening reception on 5 Nov, 6-8pm at 175 Rivington Street, New York.
