Image 25 of 50
This highly recognized 'pop' serigraph represents one of the three concrete poems in this work. The others, fuller in text, are 'When the Word Is Love' and 'Wherefore the Punctuation of the Heart.' The book was designed by William Katz, printed by Edition Domberger (Bonlanden bei Stuttgart, Germany), and issued in 210 copies, of which 125 were for sale. The 'LOVE' print, which was especially ubiquitous in the late 1960s and 1970s and appeared in a variety of color schemes, was based on the painting 'LOVE' of 1966. Its appearance on a U.S. postage stamp made that design the most popular ever issued by the Postal Service.
