Description: In 2005 Jerry B. Martin produced his first 5 typewritten pieces during the last year of Corriente Alterna School of Fine Arts. These pieces were made under the same laborious process. Martin, the owner of a Remington Rand Standard No. 17 vintage mechanical typewriter, created a detailed reproduction using the keys to "draw" (as a stylus) using text to makes up the image. In 2007, with the emergence of the binary universe and the use of digitally produced images in social media in Peruvian contemporary art, Martin uses a symbolic analog process to start his own "reverse" artistic creations. "At the root of the "Blue Pieces" we find a vast bibliography, but perhaps we should start with a book that the artist found by choice in a second-hand bookshop: "Global Conceptualism: points of origin, 1950s-1980s" ... [The book] was a determining book, not only as study material (Martin used the essays of the book as a guide to define the selection of texts and images that would become some of the Blue Pieces), but also as an emotional reference through which the artist would reflect more bibliographical aspects. Pages [10]-[11].
