Motherwell stated in a 1985 interview "I've just found a marvelous title for a joyful collage. It's two lines from a Charles Olson poem 'How to dance/ Sitting down.' They are a small present from the outside world: a perfect metaphoric equivalent in words for that light-hearted summery colored abstraction."
(G. Perry, "Pulling Together the Pieces of Motherwell's Classic Modernism", Chicago Tribune, January 27, 1985)
