“I first wrote the entire text of The Berlin Beauties as a series of title pages, and only immediately after decided to combine them with images. For the series of large paintings of erotic scenes from 1969-1972, I intended at first to visually represent the erotic attitudes or impulses in a close relationship, and I made a silkscreen print of ten small scenes expressing this idea and including as part of the painting a line or two of dialogue.”
