Each of Tacita Dean’s 80 Pantone Pairs is a combination of a found postcard paired with a commercially-printed Pantone postcard. Dean found the Pantone cards in Topanga Vintage Market and immediately knew that she wanted to work on a monoprint project using the color complement of the Pantone color. She counted the cards and was thankful there were exactly 80 of them. The accompanying postcards come from Dean’s extensive collection, found worldwide in flea markets wherever she was visiting.
