Booster and 7 Studies by Robert
Rauschenberg opens at Gemini G.E.L. at Joni Moisant
Weyl on October 28th, and will be on view through November
26th, 1994. This series of eight prints, Rauschenberg's
first project with Gemini G.E.L. in 1967, was a groundbreaking
collaboration. His concept to incorporate x-rays, photographic
material, rubbings from printed images and direct drawing
was itself a technological breakthrough in printmaking.
Yet it was the size and scale of the "Booster" print that pushed printmaking to its limits at this
early stage. At the same time, it was the largest hand-pulled
lithograph ever made: 6 feet long, printed from two
stones.

Gemini
G.E.L and the Paula Cooper Gallery are pleased to announce
the exhibition of "Dictionary Series", a new
body of work by Elizabeth
Murray. A total of twenty different prints from
1994 will be on view in the two galleries form November
1 through December, 1994. Beginning with an etched gray
line, the artist developed each print in a different
manner, hand-coloring them with water pigments. Finally,
one, two, or three runs of black screenprinting were
added. Every impression is unique.
