About The Work
Proceeds from this edition benefit the Summer 2018 exhibition at the Hessel Museum of Art at Bard College, 'The Conditions of being Art: Pat Hearn Gallery and American Fine Arts, Co. (1983-2004)', examining the legacies of legendary art dealers Pat Hearn and Colin de Land.
Mark Dion’s two-color photogravure, Paris Disneyland (for Colin de Land), is based on a drawing that Mark faxed to Colin de Land while installing an exhibition in Paris. It’s reported that Colin often referred to the drawing as one of his favorite works by Mark. It’s easy to understand why; not only funny, the work is a cruel duel of two representative “greatest hits” of export for both the United States and France: Mickey Mouse and the guillotine.
