Micaëla Gallery, San Francisco, "Larry Keenan," September 6 - 30, 2006.
This is a black and white photograph of a bathroom stall with a broken toilet.
Micaëla Gallery printout:"STUDENT PROTEST / Concord 1967 / I was teaching photography and art at the secondary school level during the early Haight-Ashbury period. Down the hall from my classroom at Concord High School, some angry student blew-up the toilet. I have always viewed toilet destruction as the 'original' student protest. After seeing this photograph, the great Minor White wrote to me saying he wished he had made the photograph himself."
