I took this video footage on December 15, 2015. It's of an unframed 24 x 36 inch multi-image artwork on etching paper comprised of etching self-portraits; and a 1977 etching, The Ichthyologist; portions of 3 linocut prints: Aztec calendar stone with comrade Che (1973); Rabbi Hillel: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself (1974); and Jerry Brozowski reading at the SIU Student center, Carbondale (1975).
~
The 2 words: The Search, were printed by the English dept., SIU-Carbondale in a 1975 poster which had a reproduction of a 1973 Segan linocut portrait of American labor martyr & hero Tom Mooney.
~
Also included: The cut-out head portion of a 1980 portrait etching of Martin Buber; and the skull portrait portion of a 1979 etching & drypoint: Self Portrait with starving artist.
~
The various sections were evidently printed or collaged on the paper where I had printed a 2x3 foot etching plate; then watercolor was added, especially at top and border areas.
~
The multi-image artwork was printed from various etching plates; the lino and other sections collaged on. It's signed and dated 1981. Size: 28 1/4 inches H x 39.5 W. It also includes one small piece of what look to be an old landscape illustration cut from a book or magazine, perhaps from an old encyclopedia.
