Lupus Viator Atlanta / von Berner, Darya., 1998

 Item
Identifier: CC-33170-34798
Scope and Contents

Selected as an Olympic Project, the walking wolf was painted on a 14 by 60 foot wall at Nexus Press. "His monumental presence was then reduced to a photograph which once cut on a grid into two hundred images, became the artwork for the book...a wordless, abstracted meditation of visually related images. Lupus Viator Atlanta can also exist as a large scaled book installation. Laying 100 books out on the floor in a ten by ten book grid, each opened to sequential page spread brings the lone wolf back to his monumental presence as installation." The wall was then painted out and the wolf went on to his next venue painted on another museum wall. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
