your so coarse (tish tish)
A raw and irreverent etching by Jim Nutt, a leading figure of the Chicago Imagist movement, "your so coarse (tish tish)" showcases his signature graphic style marked by bold lines, distorted figures, and sardonic wit. The deliberately misspelled title reflects Nutt's playful subversion of language and social propriety, while the handmade paper lends the work an intimate, tactile quality. Printed in the third state, this etching offers a glimpse into the artist's evolving creative process and his embrace of the raw, the crude, and the defiantly lowbrow.
