This publication is something of a catalogue raisonne for the year. Very few photographic works are included other than images that document my artistic activity. Publishable photos may be found in a separate catalog. Otherwise, this book has almost every hand-made art work created during the year of 2012 including paintings, collages, drawings, sketches, and correspondence works. There may be a doodle here and there or a few unfinished works ...

Our current experiment from our labs called Fluxus Laboratories (fluxuslaboratories.org) is to supply Artisan Santa Fe with larger and better quality strips of mark-making test paper to put on the counters near the pens and markers for us to collect into the Archives so that we can capture this communal scribbling, squiggling, doodling and testing by artists which we then hope to document with catalogs such as this one and make the scribbles a...

The first volume of a four volume set covering the creative work of Cecil Touchon for the year 2019. During the course of the year Touchon produced a diverse body of work including paintings, collages and works on paper.

The Iberian Variations suite started around 1987. The original thought was to create a series of gestural Abstract Expressionist collages. The idea eventually developed into the 'constructed gesture'. This was to make the material very freely and without concern for an 'image' and then construct the composition by cutting up the source material that I had prepared and arrange into a gesture. This strategy allowed me to work in a careful and co...

These poems are created using vernacular sources for materials such as restaurant receipts, poetic structures Touchon made with spam email, pages of lists from magazines as palimpsests to then overwrite the texts on the pages using the existing texts as prompts for his asemic writing. Touchon also used various authorsÕ poems whose structures he liked in the same way by printing out the poems on white sheets and then overwriting the texts. Some...

The idea behind asemic writing is to create artworks that are based on the act of mark making similar to handwriting but without reference to semantic content or literary meaning. I suppose you could call it a form of literary abstraction or perhaps non-objective literature. Hence each Ôasemic writerÕ has a unique way of writing or making marks. When we look at handwriting, even if we are unable to decipher it, we are getting some sort of visu...

A catalog of works completed during the year 2014 by artist Cecil Touchon arranged chronologically. The catalog includes paintings, collages, drawings, poetry, exhibition photos and interviews.

This work is intended to be purely visual with no reference to literary content or convey any sort of symbols. There is an interest however in musicality, of moving the focal point of the eye along during the reading through repetition, cadence, movement, etc. It is a form of listening with the eye as the title of the book suggests. The idea behind asemic writing is to create artworks that are based on the act of mark making similar to handwri...

These works might be called automatic writing or visual writing or asemic writing. There is no intention to tell a story or to use any recognizable language or symbols. Rather the works function freely with intuition rather than thought, allowing the hand to just do what the hand does, make marks. There is a kind of visual vocabulary however, such as letter-like marks, punctuation-like marks such as chevrons, commas, accents, dashes and dots, ...

The brush and ink drawings in this volume are from a sketchbook dating from 1982. If memory serves however, some portion of these drawing were from a later date, but all follow along the same train of thought so are presented here as a group from Sketchbook 1982 - A.

Collages by Cecil Touchon made as poems between 2014 -2019. This is a specific set of works within Touchon's oeuvre that he thinks of as different from his other typographic abstraction collages. This group is less concerned with an overall compositional image and tend to be more involved with structures similar to poetic architecture, often linier and working with open space like poetic texts on a page.

The writings presented here were composed specifically for existing in a book environment as unified text. These works might be called automatic writing or visual writing or asemic writing. There is no intention to tell a story or to use any recognizable language or symbols. Rather the works function in free flow with intuition rather than thought, allowing the hand to just do what the hand does, make marks. Touchon uses improvisational approa...

In October 2013 Rosalia and Cecil Touchon spent a month in Paris, France. While there, Touchon collected paper and made 80+ collages in 30 days. Also include are related photographs taken in Paris and asemic writing as well as examples of several paintings made based on this set of collages.

This is volume three in a set of asemic notebooks. Like volume one, these poems or texts or drawings depending on how you think about them were all made with an ink marker on 6x4 inch smooth, glossy photographic paper. My idea was to have the works function as if they were plates of texts in a book so that the image would appear without a visible background. In this way the writing or text uses the page itself as background in the typical way ...
