Col-umns / Cross, Doris., 1982
Cross reworked dictionary columns "leaving found words precisely where they exist in the columns of Webster's Secondary School Dictionary, 1913 edition. The found words then comprise the statement. Words as objects, textures, movements, spaces, sounds: words supporting words, even as a column is built of mortar and stones." The appearance of Cross' work is reminiscent of Tom Phillips' A Humument. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Expire - Expressly / Cross, Doris., 1979
Cross altered the pages of Webster's 1913 edition of the dictionary leaving "found words" to comprise a new poetry. In this sense, her work is similar to the artistic process employed by Tom Phillips in his book, A Humument. In this print, the page defining the word, "expire" has been altered by covering most of the words with images having indistinct features of human faces, perhaps to symbolize the vanishing of life. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Cross alters the 1913 edition of Webster's dictionary to leave cluster of words to form a new poetry; examples of these pages are illustrated in this magazine. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
