Bruce Conner assembled POWER FAILURE while residing in Brookline, Massachusetts. The piece is typical of Conner’s ad hoc constructions, with random bits of found industrial and prefabricated material scattered across the surface. The upper portion of the work is covered with battered pieces of roofing paper, while the lower portion is veiled by an old wire window screen. A fragment of gold fabric with fringe, glass shards, and bits of rope oats in the lower right corner, alongside a piece of plastic wrap marked with the letter A and a red rose. Skirting the upper and lower halves of the window screen are multicolored bundles of electrical wires placed near a lightbulb socket wrapped with string.
