Description

Three tall rectangular blocks, each formed of two vertical bars bound together with twisted, rope-like strips wrapped near the top and bottom, stand against a solid black background. The strips arch or cross between the bars in different patterns in each panel—a crossed X, a pointed arch, and a tight double spiral—rendered in soft gray tones with fine striated shading against the blocks' flatter gray surfaces. Katsunori Hamanishi, *Combination—Twist #1*, 1978, mezzotint.
