Colette, “Beautiful Dreamer” Justine of the Colette is Dead Co., Mixed Media, 1979. Signed on front and back.

Size: 12 1/4 x 12 1/4 in.

For Colette the documentation of her temporary performances has become a fine art in itself. Her most interesting and attractive mode of documentation is the ongoing series “Records from the Story of My Life.” Each of these works is a twelve-inch square collage (sized like an LP) that incorporates photographs embellished with paint and other materials. Colette first began working in this long-running format in 1978. This particular image incorporates the image on the cover of Colette’s record Beautiful Dreamer.
