Scope and Contents

A collage sent by Kolar as a gift to the Sackners arrived wet and shredded. In his note with this replacement, Jiri Kolar writes, "Thanks for your letter. I was quite amused with the destroyed [sic] collage you sent me back." The loose sheets cut from periodicals can be placed into the frame of the simulated mirror image of the original collage to create new images as a "do-it yourself" art work. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
