50x40x25 cm.
Two pairs of tap dance shoes -one in white, the other in black- are placed under a glass cube on a black and white wooden base. The object is accompanied by the sounds from an original song and tap dance performance of the legendary Al Jolson, a white tap dancer who used to colour his face black for his performances.
