About The Work
In this photograph, Jack Pierson makes a dedication to two figures: Johnnie Ray, the 1950s musician who precursored rock and roll, and Jack Smith, the film director and pioneer of underground cinema. Using various vintage, semi-filmic fonts, the artist makes an apt dedication to both the name of the man in the image and in the title's dedication.
