955,000

Index cards which made up the exhibition catalog for 955,000, an exhibition organized by Lucy Lippard at the Vancouver Art Gallery,  1970.

 

The index cards, sent in by the artists for the exhibition catalogue, give instructions for the construction and installation of  works as there was no budget to either fly the artists in or to ship all artworks to Vancouver. The objects and installations were executed by Lucy Lippard herself, by Vancouver artists and other volunteers.
