Jonathan Borofsky about this work:
"The symbol of the red ruby came to me in a dream many years ago. For me, the ruby has always been a symbol for the heart - my heart, as well as the heart of humanity. I have included this symbol as part of many of my installations over the years. This particular ruby is painted with acrylics on primed plywood. It is mounted off the wall approximately 7.5cm. Most likely, I gifted this to Kasper after it appeared in one of his group exhibitions that I participated in - possibly Westkunst 1981."
Provenance:
- Kasper König Collection, Berlin (directly from the artist)
Exhibitions:
- Westkunst, Cologne 1981
