Description
From the Cafe Mestizo Exhibition at INTAR (International Arts Relations) Gallery (June 1989), New York, NY. This assemblage's central focus is a white heart with a hole in its center, lined with sheet metal shaped into scallops and saw blades cut in half. The heart is placed on a hubcap and covered with black netting. A cactus pad and gun lie on the right. On the left an axe lies across the spine of the book The Last of the Mohicans and two cacti and a doll's head complete the design.
Cat.1 023
