Christopher Wool — Run Dog Run
Christopher Wool

Run Dog Run

A suite of screenprints by Christopher Wool, *Run Dog Run* exemplifies the artist's iconic approach to language as image, presenting fragmented and block-lettered text that challenges conventional modes of reading and meaning. Produced in 1991 and published by Gisela Capitain in Cologne, this rare edition of 25 captures Wool's signature aesthetic of disruption and repetition. The work reflects his broader exploration of urban vernacular and the visual weight of words stripped of straightforward narrative context.

Medium
all signed, dated '1991' and numbered 3/25 in pencil on the reverse (there were also 7 artist's proofs), published by Gisela Capitain, Cologne, all framed.
