Het hoort bij de collectie, maar is momenteel niet tentoongesteld.
Throughout his work, Steinberg employed numerous graphic equivalents for language. Here, he presents an inventory of symbols on parade: imprints from readymade rubber stamps, hand-drawn spirals and lines, and watercolor squiggles. Each mark is isolated and presented as if it has physical heft, making them like nouns or things, rather than—as they usually are—adjectives or modifiers that describe something else.
