A record of four lectures that the Gelatin group gave at Leo Koenig Gallery in New York, in September and October of 2001. A large foldout cover contains two booklets: one with photos of the lecture series audience touched up with plasticine and the other featuring a facsimile of Dubrow's handwritten lecture notes, along with drawings that illustrate the lecture series. The book's jacket can be unfolded and function as a poster.


"... The Lectures took place in a theater built by gelatin in the main space of the Leo Koenig Gallery, ... It was a half circle in shape, and it had a mezzanine, 1st balcony, and in some places a 2nd balcony. people also had orchestra seats...
The theater was very solidly built, and did not shake or creak...." - Norman Dubrow

"It took us almost two years to finally be happy satisfied with the look of this book. Its all about our show at Leo Koenig Inc. in 2000." - gelatin
