Believing that one thing was real only insofar as it corresponded
with others, twentieth-century artist Ray Johnson highlighted the
connections between himself and other artists including Andy
Warhol, Jackson Pollock, Anni Albers, and especially Marcel
Duchamp. This study of Johnson through the lens of Duchamp and the
other artists who inspired him entails the investigation of
hieroglyphs, codes, action figures, queer theory, and cultural
history. By examining Johnson's collage and Correspondence art in
relation to his main inspirations, this critical work brings new
light to the study of Johnson and to the dynamic networks of
artistic inheritance and correspondence of the twentieth century.
