Hollis Frampton: Zorns Lemma (1970)

BY | Posted on | FILED UNDER Categories Information

Zorns Lemma is a major poetic work. Created and put together by a very clear eye head, this original and complex abstract work moves beyond the letters of the alphabet, beyond words and beyond Freud. If you don’t understand it the first time you see it, don’t despair, see it again! When you finally ‘get it,’ a small light, possibly a candle, will light itself inside your forehead.” – Ernie Gehr
