"This page has hundreds of years in it, including the present."
TELLING TIME explores the spaces between the time it takes to read a text, the time described in the text, and other Magritte-ish "This is not a pipe" effects. A participant in the 1979 "Artist's Book Conference Show" at the Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester, New York, Judy Levy later became a faculty member at the Rochester Institute of Technology.
