The cover of the leaflet is printed on blue paper, the unbound page on rose colored paper. This references Picasso's Blue and Rose periods of painting around the turn of the century. The poem is taken from the French revolutionary J.L. David's Instructions for the Festival of the Supreme Being, 1794 in which he describes his vision, ...Mothers will hold bouquets of roses in their hands, and girls will carry baskets filled with flowers. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

William Jeffett contributed a lenghy, enlightening essay entitled "Avant-Garde and Moderization" to this catalogue. Marvin Sackner was a co-speaker with Jeffett at the symposium held in conjunction with the exhibition," Tour de France/Florida" at the Frost Museum in January 2012 and Jeffetts donated this catalogue to the Sackner Archive. Of note is a photograph of Joan Rabascall's sculpture "Monument to Televison (1992) on page 80 of the essay. The Sackners agreed to lend this sculpture to the exhiibition but their professional art movers deemed it too fragile to travel. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
