Michael BeamThree Dog Night2014
2014
About the Item
The title for this work was inspired by the ruminations of Charles Manson in the 2010 publication Charles Manson NOW. “When you come to prison and you stay the fifteen years, all the dogs of the world are dead when you come back out, there is no dog that was a live when you were out last time. The three dog night would mean you were in prison three times, three times all the dogs.”
