Gold offset lithograph on paper. 69 x 99 cm. Installed in the show in stakes, take away work, unlimited edition. "Untitled" (Double Portrait) is from the artist’s “stack” series and is made up of hundreds of sheets of paper featuring an image of two circles printed in lustrous gold. They are presented in a neat pile on the museum floor, available for visitors to take away; infinite numbers of new copies may be printed. The image this work carries represents one of the most important themes found in Gonzalez-Torres’s work: the pairing of two people in togetherness, solidarity, and love. These “anti-monuments,” as the artist described his “stack” works, are meant to symbolize the acts of loss and regeneration. Gonzalez-Torres also desired to subvert the traditional “look but do not touch” rules often associated with viewing and experiencing works of art". The Buffalo AKG Art Museum.         Felix GONZALEZ-TORRES Untitled (Passport II). (1993) Artist book. Unpaginated (12 pp., including covers). Softcover, stapled.
