Stewart Uoo for 7038634357’s Neo Seven

For our TEST PRESSINGS initiative, we invited ten visual artists—Marie Angeletti, Cory Arcangel, Rochelle Goldberg, Brad Kronz, Veit Laurent Kurz, Ari Marcopoulos, Win McCarthy, Chadwick Rantanen, Joanne Robertson, and Stewart Uoo—to select an album from our back catalog and design covers for its test pressings. Stewart Uoo (b. 1985), based in New York, selected 7038634357’s Neo Seven (2023).

Test pressings are the very first vinyls produced in the stamping of a record, used by artists and producers to evaluate audio quality. This year, Blank Forms gave these records new life by turning each plain white sleeve into a canvas for a contemporary artist—now available to the public.

As a nonprofit organization supporting artists whose work defies disciplinary boundaries, we depend on your support. Purchasing an Art Edition helps us continue to promote vanguard artistic practices through performances, publications, exhibitions, and legacy work.
