About the work

The present drawing, executed on transparent paper with brown pencil and collage (perforated sheet with pencil and red pencil) features handwritten comments by the artist next to studies which show the sequence of steps for a couple dancing to an old Argentinian tango melody, to which they dance in Horn's film "Der Eintänzer" (The Taxi-Dancer). The film was produced in the artist's New York studio in 1978.
