Wow - my immediate association was with an SX-70 Polaroid print, pulling it from the camera with the Tab Corner and peeling off the cover to let the chemicals do their thing. Brilliant.

 Yes, these tabs get very photo-graphy,  like dark slides on a film back.  Not to set you up too much, but you are going to go “Oh,  give me that Polaroid fix” when you see the Tarkovsky opus. The tandem shuffle on the recto and verso of his pages that pair his Polaroids with text add his narrative voice to the work.  It’s like epistolary photography.

Tab Eclectic Second Reader XIII

This study is a statement that strives to articulate the basics of visual language in photography and the challenge of textual language necessary to define this tandem play of words and images. It is the art of reflection and refraction in all of its metaphoric ambiguity and risk. At what point is this play intelligible or unintelligible? What are the margins of blur and acuity? What is the language of sensory impressions or "the supremacy of pure feelings," as Kazimir Malevich asks?

So I organized the composition using principally five quadrangles, not counting the Eclectic Second Reader because it hangs like a notation, words or language, used to ascribe meaning to color fields, which themselves are not objects, per se, but textures. The large quadrangle on the left is without color and its rough texture contrasts with the smooth texture of the red color. The quadrangles progress in simple numerical order, 1-2-3, implying next would be a panel of 4 quadrangles. The two primary colors, red and cyan, imply a third color that can be either yellow or green. There is the clutter of language represented by images of the elementary reader, illustrating the crosstalk of narratives and page illustrations against the red and cyan color fields. This Eclectic Second Reader coincidentally was published in 1865 and bears the scars of use and neglect--if only these pages could narrate their own history in schools and homes for the last 150 years.

Robert Rauschenberg's screenprint work in Currents was inspirational, the way he used simple newspapers in collage constructions; one edition of Currents was reproduced in a fifty-four foot print.

Working on this last Tab Eclectic Second Reader XIII, I looked up at the jumble of images I was using. Here they are, unedited and raw. Thought the "Diptych Crowd" would get a laugh.

See-through Red Paper Bag
M-A APO 50 & Macro-Elmar-M  ADOX Color Implosion & E100
Posted See-through Red on I Like Film, then I found an ADOX bag and couldn't help myself. Torn between formal color fields and another sort of color field in the bag.  I guess it's just a way of posing the question: "What's your bag?" Ha, ha. I guess I'm into the push and pull of the bag with a little of Albers's transparency.
