Scope and Contents
This work was exhibited in the Destruction In Art Symposium organized by Gustav Metzger and held in Prince Albert Hall in London in 1966. The event was a precursor to the art movement of Situationism. The work was composed by crumpling overtyped printed texts and printing them on a monoduplicator device as a single copy. These were then collaged onto a black painted panel. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
