John Dowd touted iconography through collage and xerography. 🖨️⁠

In 1973, the New York-based artist and graphic commandeered a Xerox machine, copying nearly 250 images from popular publications (mostly front covers), including Disney and DC comics, teen-idol rags, music periodicals, fan club newsletters, counterculture magazines, gay liberation tracts, and more. ⁠

A key figure in the correspondence art scene, Dowd’s leveraged juxtaposition in his work as a way to generate new narrative work that bridged the personal, cultural and political, often accompanied by his perverse sense of humor. ⁠

“I really like pictures in sequence, facing each other on opposite pages,” Dowd was quoted saying. “Then you can say something.”⁠

See more of Dowd’s work, including zines like “John Down Fanny Club” and “Fanzini” created with longtime collaborator John Jack Baylin, through March 31, 2024. ⁠
