Scope and Contents In Sept 1972, Finlay enters into correspondence with Jurgen Brenner, a German architect, about a commission for an installation within a garden at the Max Planck Institute in Stuttgart. He selects Costley as the calligrapher and artist for the preparatory drawings. He writes Brenner that he wants "free-drawn letters...as opposed to rigid typographic letters. I consider it essential that poems that people are going to see every day, are verbal/visual/decorative, rather than (as it were) merely literary." In Nov-Dec 1972, Finlay sends instructions to Costley about execution of the sculpture for the installation. The poems in English & German include tile murals, Wave/Rock, Wave, Star/Steer, Sails/Waves, and, sundials, Sea/Land. He follows this up with suggestions for Latin & French versions. Finlay's 2nd list of poems include Schiff, Ark/Arc, Homage to Seurat, Cloud, Gourd (together with Nuclear Sail & Fountain/Sphinx), Set of Wild Stones, and The Colours of the Vowels....
