The Quiet Album
Appearance
The Quiet Album is a 1990 piece by Albert Oehlen, Mayo Thompson, and Werner Büttner. It appears to be limited edition of 40.
- "The Quiet Album comprised a banner showing a black and white reproduction of a photograph of Oehlen, Büttner and Thompson life-size, singing with their faces pressed against the closed windows of Oehlen’s Porsche Targa parked in the snow in Hamburg. It was a limited edition, came in a white box modeled on The Beatles 'White Album,' and sold out immediately."[1]
- "Described by Thompson as a picture of the band, their faces pressed to a car window, printed onto parachute silk. There was no album per se."[2]
