 Item — Folder: 17
Identifier: CC-24118-24570

Scope and Contents

The central image is a skeletal, rubberstamped figure who juggles 5 rubberstamped spherical objects, perhaps key locks to a room. The figure stands on 2 mounds of letraset letters. A relief object collaged to the upper left corner consists of handwritten cancelled numbers on top of letraset letters with a paper fragment of blue sky and a cloud. The image may be a metaphor for Baroni's questioning his art, music, or hotel careers. This is one of a series of 8 Unrelated Pieces for the Sackn -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
