Exhibition Graphics, Printed Material and Publication
This iconic installation and performance piece originally took place in 1973. Rosler is interested in examining art as both a fetishised object and commodity. The project was advertised as a garage sale in local newspapers, but also as an art event in which the work takes the form of an authentic household jumble sale, where second-hand goods are displayed and sold over the duration of the exhibition. The exhibition identity worked as a public notice in bold colours and with hard typography. The invitation took the form of a hole-punched A4 notice which invited the recipient to attach it to lamp posts to advertise.
