Description

A collaborative artwork made through an exchange of images via email, Call Ampersand Response is a unique project that explores the connection between found images and creative expression. Between 2011 and 2017, Michael Dumontier and Micah Lexier shared their interest in line drawings, used books, and other visual materials, creating a series of visually connected images. The book presents these images in distinctive pairs, with each image appearing twice - once as response and again as call. This closed loop structure allows the viewer to appreciate the dual nature of the project. The entire project of 196 exchanges is included in this second edition, offering a fascinating glimpse into the creative process of two artists. Browsing through the book reveals a range of formal analogies, witty poetic correspondence, and playful follies that come together to form an unseen visual narrative. This book will be of interest to those involved in art and design who appreciate the value of creative exchange and collaboration.
