conspiracy theory art

December 27, 2008 1:30 PM

A while ago I read about an artist, then recently deceased, whose works consisted of the names of entities in popular conspiracy theories connected with graceful arcs (according as they were held to be in cahoots). Maybe it wasn't only conspiracy theories but also more legitimate political connections. I can't find his name or examples of his work online, and I would like to. Only you can help!

I can partially recommend Global Networks because it is an interesting read, but often the reproductions are frustrating because the interrelations are lost in a detail view or because those details are lost when the whole image is shown.

Mark's gallery was Pierogi in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. There are some images there, and they even have some work available if you have a hundred grand or two lying around. If I had that kind of money to spend on art, he'd be high on my list.
