“(...) This begins with a page entitled ‘Arcs from One Corner’ in which curves radiate from the lower left corner like a rising sun, and when they reach the opposite corner, the lines have become straight. When circles and grids are introduced, progressively and then simultaneously, the overlapping becomes complex but never too dense. The network of the final page is still brilliantly woven.” (LeWitt/Legg).
