Marvin and Ruth Sackner are the pioneer collectors of concrete and visual poetry and the most loyal and active supporters that my work has yet found. These two portrait drawings would not belong naturally to their collection except that I embedded their names in the works (in order to give a marginal word content) before presenting them to the sitters for their great archive in Miami. Marvin Sackner is a noted physician and inventor who first came across my work in an exhibition at the Basle Kunsthalle in 1975 at which time he was a specialist collector of Russian avant garde material. The Portrait Works (1989), p. 85.
