Untitled ["tattoo" book] 1971

James McCracken Jr.'s 1971 "Untitled ["tattoo" book]" is a small, closed book that contains drawings of insects and other subjects. The artwork features a simple, black line drawing of a bug-like creature, perhaps representing a tattoo needle. The artist's unique style is characterized by a minimalist aesthetic, suggesting a focus on the essence of the subject matter. This work is typical of McCracken's artistic approach, which often delved into themes of the human body and its relationship with the natural world.
