Scope and Contents

This is an extensive architectural project for a German bank that was planned from the onset of construction. It consisted of six carved, lettered stone sculptures for the facade, poetic wall paintings, poems on glass doors, and a floor poem. The concrete and picture poems were modified from earlier published versions, e.g., wave/rock, star, evening will come, sackcloth n., wild flower n. Bann wrote a critical analysis, Simig helped in production, & Sloan provided the stone carvings. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
