Joe Brainard (March 11, 1942 – May 25, 1994) was an American artist and writer associated with the New York School.
His prodigious and innovative body of work included assemblages, collages, drawing, and painting, as well as designs for book and album covers, theatrical sets and costumes.

He is best known for his memoir I Remember, of which Paul Auster said: "It is ...
one of the few totally original books I have ever read."
