Scope and Contents

This book was published on the occasion of Hiller's exhibition at Gimpel-Fils gallery in London in March-April 1983. The text of this book was produced by the technique of "automatic writing" in May 1972 during the artist's stay in France. The artist states that "my hands made the marks that form the inscriptions, but not in my characteristic handwriting (i.e., personal style of mark-making) or voice (i.e., usual tone or mode of utterance)." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
