...course, our eyes are prepared for it by modern art. The Flag Gate, found in Jefferson County, N.Y., with its wavy battens of red-painted wood delicately mimicking the ripple of fabric stripes in a breeze, inevitably suggests Jasper Johns' flag paintings, but that is only an accident. Likewise, a deliciously anthropomorphic wool winder (see cut), with a human head and the hub of a decorated worm gear for its belly button, predicts the surreal wooden constructions of H.C.
