Abstract (en)
Catalogue for an exhibition of Cumming's works in a wide variety of media including photography, drawing, painting and sculpture. Cumming is concerned with dualities, the balance between order and chaos, and is drawn to the function of such simple objects as chairs, cups and discs. In a critical essay, Robert Harbison discusses his works as "jokes, that is to say puzzles resolved as discords." Transcribes a 26 Oct 1992 conversation between Cumming and curators Hugh M. Davies and Lynda Forsha. Checklist of works exhibited.
