Elevate Your Correspondence with Piero Manzoni’s Conceptual Masterpiece
Piero Manzoni’s Artist's Shit (Merda d'artista), created in 1961, remains one of the most provocative and influential works of the 20th-century avant-garde. Originally a series of 90 tin cans, this work serves as a biting critique of mass production, consumerism, and the cult of the artist’s persona. RedKalion is proud to offer this pack of 10 museum-quality postcards, allowing you to share a piece of art history that continues to challenge the boundaries of aesthetic value.
Museum-Grade Reproduction and Material Excellence
Our commitment to archival quality ensures that each postcard is more than just stationery—it is a fine art print. Utilizing 12-color fine art printing technology, we achieve a color vibrancy and depth that standard inkjet prints cannot replicate. Every detail of Manzoni's original label is rendered with stunning accuracy on 200 gsm (80 lb) FSC-certified paper, featuring a smooth matte finish that eliminates glare and provides a sophisticated tactile experience.
A Legacy of Avant-Garde Thought
Manzoni famously priced his tins according to their weight in gold, equating the artist's biological output with the highest form of commercial value. By choosing these postcards, you are engaging with a legacy of conceptual rigor. Whether sent as a unique sentiment or kept as a curated set of miniature prints, these A6 postcards represent the pinnacle of curated, archival-grade reproduction. RedKalion ensures that every piece is printed on demand to maintain the highest standards of environmental consciousness and quality control.
