Provenance: 2000. Drawing, print, handwritten journal pages, facing, two sided. Black, violet, yellow, orange, red on white. Ink on mylar, ballpoint on lined notebook paper, watercolor printed by woodblock. 8 1/2 in. X 11 in. Signed Lower right.
Artist comment: For many days the summer of 2000 I carried a three-ring binder and wrote in the pages, using a daily spiral that emulated the passage of the hours in a looping form. Each hour I noted what I'd done. I cut woodblocks for the color. The inked Mylar line is a path I deduced from a study of the images in the film, "Planet of the Apes", and they were made originally for the "36 Views of the Locus of Beauty"--a video installation.
