 Item
Identifier: CC-38483-40390
Scope and Contents

The artist book by Diane Samuels, "Letter Liturgy (for Leon)," is mentioned and depicted twice in the catalogue essays; it is held by the Sackner Archive. The message of the work, based on a traditional Jewish folk tale, reads, "Dear God. I do not know how to pray, but I can recite the alphabet. Please accept my letters and form them into prayers." This expresses the theme of the exhibition - the human need to communicate is the essence of art and religion. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
