Restaurant Drawings

Restaurant Drawings – A canvas-bound collection of iconic art appropriations by Jonathan Monk, done on restaurant notes.

This new book collects the English artist’s (b. 1969) drawings and paintings on receipts that are then sold for the price of the meal, an example of his spontaneous appropriationist gestures. On these bills, Monk recreates the works of Ellsworth Kelly, Sol LeWitt, Sherrie Levine, Piero Manzoni, Lawrence Weiner, On Kawara, Christopher Wool, Andy Warhol and others.
