Includes work from 39 different prominent (and less-so) artists who were invited to design a postcard for this first series in the project. (Original works were exhibited at the Cooper-Hewitt in 1978.) Postcards include poets, photographers, architects, and a composer, as well as painters and sculptors. They are: John Ashbery, Victoria Barr, Donald Barthelme, Richard Benson, Joe Brainard, John Cage, William Copley, Jim Dine, Russell Drisch, Donald Evans, Gonzalo Fonseca, Mary Frank, Edward Gorey, Michael Graves, Marilyn Hamann, Christopher Hewat, Claus Hoie, Wolf Kahn, Lee Krasner, Robert M.

Distinct from art postcards that are miniature versions of celebrated works, each Artists’ Postcard carries a new picture created especially for it by a living artist and likely to be seen in postcard form only.
