About The Work
The OY/YO earrings by Deborah Kass with Paul Kasmin Gallery are a luxurious yet playful rendition of her undeniably pop OY/YO paintings and sculptures, which reference Ed Ruscha's iconic, text-based work. The reoccurring motif of the two exclamations first appeared in 2011 and since then have been featured in a broad range of mediums, including the notable large-scale installation at Brooklyn Bridge Park which debuted in November 2015. The phrases 'OY' and 'YO' are exemplary of Kass's appropriation of popular culture and Yiddish language.
