Like ‘Godroon’, ‘Jump’ contains the idea of a form capable of infinite extension; a half-scale shape is carried on the back of a full-scale one suggesting the possibility of further development, down through the floor and up into the air. Annesley has called it ‘a reality joke’. It is also perhaps a reminder of his interest in Paul Klee’s ‘serious jokes’. The shapes used were obtained by sawing steel pipes in half. T01341 is one of an edition of three.
Published in The Tate Gallery Report 1970–1972, London 1972.
