 Item
Identifier: CC-27583-28660

(I try to act in the gap between the two)"Mary Lynn Kotz provides a critical discussion of several artistic works reproduced in this book.

It is an unbound book containing poems from the Nootka, Chippewa, Nanajo, Iglulik, Pawnee and Apache tribes, printed with Rauschenberg's illustrations from nature in iridescent ink on clear plexiglas. The panels or pages, are interchangeable in their stands. With this hauntingly iridescent work, Rauschenberg celebrated his own American Indian heritage.

Scope and Contents

The Sackners saw this exhibition that consisted of mostly unusually designed art catalogues. Further, it was their first discovery of the utilization of glass green houses as an economical means to display large quantities of books and objects. This installation was used in an exhibition in 2000 at the same museum "170 Jahre." The Sackners also used a modification of this installation in their exhibition, "The Beauty in Breathing" (1992) in Miami Beach. The catalogue consists of a listing that is divided into sections according to the boo'ks design. The computer print-out of the individual works as to their descriptions and annotations is disappointing. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
