Scope and Contents

The French title is "En-haut et en-bas" or "Top and Bottom,"or "High and Low." Each page is a print of Kolar's typogrammes from the 1960's. The pages are cut so that a portion of typing from the following pages become an important part of the composition. Kolar created new configurations with the typewriter that were known as "creations plastiques." The Sackner Archive also holds nine unique typewritten pages that were bound into a unique binding by Pella Erskine Tullock. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
