DescriptionImage in red, white and black against a grey background. In the upper part two bowling-pin shapes in a “fuzzy” red and white frame. The one on the left is upright; the one on the right is upside down. Red and white “shadows” extending beyond them, and a red and white patterned tube connecting them, suggest three-dimensionality. The lower half is a solid red shape with uneven edges, where the reflection of the upper half is drawn in white. The three-dimensionality is much more pronounced here. Connecting the two halves is a thick black ribbon that threads through the upper tube, to curl into the reflections below.ProvenanceC. Richard Belger and Evelyn Craft Belger, Kansas City, MO;
