Further information:
In Memory of My Feelings was a limited
edition portfolio of 2500 copies published by the Museum
of Modern Art (MoMA), New
York, in 1967 as a tribute to MoMA curator and poet
Frank O’Hara, who died in a car crash in 1966. 30 artists contributed works to
accompany O’Hara’s poems, with renowned Abstract Expressionist painter Robert
Motherwell acting as art director. The portfolio comprises 54 loose-leaf
signatures in a cloth-bound case, with many artists providing artwork for more
than one signature. The artwork was produced specifically for this portfolio,
and thus these prints are original works and not reproductions, and are
included in many of the artists' catalogues
raisonnés. Many of them have appreciated considerably in value since the
date of publication.
The contributing artists were: Nell Blaine, Norman Bluhm, Joe
Brainard, John Button, Giorgio Cavallon, Allan D'Arcangelo, Elaine de Kooning,
Willem de Kooning, Niki de Saint Phalle, Helen Frankenthaler, Jane Freililcher,
Michael Goldberg, Philip Guston, Grace Hartigan, Al Held, Jasper Johns, Matsumi
Kanemitsu, Alex Katz, Lee Krasner, Alfred Leslie, Roy Lichtenstein, Marisol,
Joan Mitchell, Robert Motherwell, Reuben Nakian, Barnett Newman, Claes
Oldenburg, Robert Rauschenberg, Larry Rivers, and Jane Wilson.
