Antonio Yera

YOKO ONO (1933):

Mend Piece for John

Piece made up of red silk ribbon, glue tube, pieces of paper with the artist's annotations and a cardboard box.
Work from the S.M.S. #5 (Shit Must Stop), 1968.

Contribution of the conceptual artist to the portfolios published by William Copley and Dimitri Petrov between February and December 1968.

Publisher: The Letter Edged in Black Press, 1968.

Edition approx. 2,000 copies, many of them lost (according to experts, probably between 800 and 1,000).

Perfectly mounted on its original box. Box dimensions: 15.9 cm x 15.2 cm x .,5 cm.

Frame with depth and glass (32.5 x 32.5 cm).


One of the most valued works along with those of Duchamp, Oppenheim, Christo or Lichtenstein.

The 'SMS' portfolios (inspired by the famous Boîte-en-valise, by Marcel Duchamp and, in general, by the irreverence of the DADA movement and the multiples of the FLUXUS movement), represented a reaction against the elitism of the art world by to deliver, by regular subscription, pieces by artists we consider today among the most important of the 20th century (Richard Hamilton, Roy Lichstenstein, Joseph Kosuth, Meret Oppenheim, Man Ray, John Cage, Bernar Venet, Mel Ramos, Walter de Maria, Christo Javacheff, Dieter Roth, Claes Oldenburg..),. The deliveries of Shit Must Stop barely lasted 1 year due to the increase in the cost of publishing the works and their distribution.
