Working Day and Night, 1989
This work shows a balcony with books, very much like the Sackner Archive. The artist confirmed that he had no idea of this when he did the work. In the bottom center, a child is seated at a round table. Through two large windows are a day time and a night time scene. The frame is covered with dense hand-lettered text on topology. The top and bottom edges are written backwards and can be read with a small mirror provided by the artist. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

The book is an exhibition catalogue from the Oregon Artists Series in which both artists were included. It is slipped into the larger box. All the cards deal with censorship. The box came from tony colomona who was the drummer for the band, "plug," that sloy managed in the 1990s. The box was from deen castronovo's Zappo's shoe box, with his name on the inside of the censored box. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
