Partick Caulfield displayed twenty-two brightly coloured screenprints which were made from a book of poems by French poet, Jules Laforge, not illustrations to the text but complementary images, with the melancholy atmosphere of Caulfield's interiors finding a direct counterpart in Laforgues's poetry.

I'll Take my Life Monotonous
We wanted to watch the silence
Crying to the walls: My God! My God! will she relent
Thus she would come, escaped, half-dead to my door
Watch me eat, without appetite, a la carte
Curtains drawn back from balconies of shores
My Life Inspires so many desires
Making circles on park lagoons
Ah! storms clouds rushed from the channel coasts
All the benches are wet, the woods are so rusty
She'll have forgotten her scarf
She Fled along the avenue
Ah! this life is so everyday
Along a twilighted sky
All These Confessions
You'll be sick if you spend all your time indoors
Oh Helen, I roam the room
I've only the friendship of Hotel rooms
And, with my eyes bolted toward the unconcious
Oh, if one of them, some fine evening, would try
Her handkerchief swept me along the Rhine
