Homage To G. Seurat, 1972
Cutts collaged candy jimmies on a card to suggest a pointillist painting. According to the catalogue of "The Gabrielle Keiller Collection: Surrealism and After" (held by the Sackner Archive), this piece was made by Cutts in his final year of art college. He dabbed a sponge in PVC glue, applied this to paper, and then immediately dipped the paper into a tin of thousands of candy cake decorations. Although the edition size comprised 50 copies, the process renders each one unique. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
Homage to Seurat / Cutts, Simon., 1983
This book describes the collage work that uses cake decorations called jimmies or jubbies to suggest the tiny brush strokes of pure color seen in pointillist paintings by Seurat and other Neo-impressionist artists. Cutts reprints the correspondence between him and the Arts Council of Great Britain concerning the remounting and reissuing of the work after many of the jimmies had falllen off the card. The handcolored additions are made to a printed page of Homage to Seurat. The Sackner Archive holds a copy of this edition with the jimmies. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

The poem reads, "Homage to Simon Cutts." The image on the card depicts a hand poking a pencil through the hull of a toy boat and might signify the "brute force" artistic efforts of Cutts perceived by Finlay. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
