Jonathan Monk sings for his supper in this massive collection of drawings of artworks he has doodled on restaurant receipts and sold for the price of the meal. 

On these bills, Monk recreates the work of John Baldessari, Alighiero Boetti, On Kawara, Ellsworth Kelly, Sol LeWitt (see below, from our collection), Sherrie Levine, Piero Manzoni, Lawrence Weiner, Andy Warhol, Christopher Wool, and others.

The images are accompanied by an essay by Pedro Alonzo.
