Invitation card produced on the occasion of the exhibition Bas Jan Ader (1942-1975) at Art & Project, Amsterdam, 29 January–23 February, 1985.
Bas Jan Ader was a Dutch conceptual and performance artist known for works exploring failure, loneliness, and the sublime, famously disappearing at sea in 1975 while attempting a transatlantic voyage as the final part of his trilogy, In Search of the Miraculous. His art, often using photography and film, featured self-performances of falling or emotional distress, linking life and art as metaphorical journeys, culminating in his mysterious final act of becoming part of his art.
