Kulturgeschichte 1880–1983, 1980–83

Paper works installed in a locked grid on a wall, each with a bright red background with two tan pages of a notebook, each with uniquely collaged images, texts, pages, postcards, or handwritten notes. The works are installed on tall walls, organized in three-sized rooms, two of which are visible here. There are also sculptures of people and stuffed animals arranged on both the floor and pedestals in the center of the rooms.
