Jasper Johns, 'Alley Oop,' 1958
ArtForum, March, 1996 by Richard Shiff
When mark are just marks, you don't need to "figure out what is being said." Because Johns' Alley Oop lacks formal and thematic fixity, it extends your state of awareness. You look, listen, and can invent. The paint says what it wants, and so do you, in attentive reciprocity.
