From curator Rich Dana:
Mitsou Ronat was a French linguist and devotee of Noam Chomsky, who posited that the number twelve is the key to unlocking the mystery of the poem. She compiled a folio of visual, poetical, and scholarly interpretations of “Un coup de dés” along with Hungarian poet and scholar Tibor Papp, who contributed a map of Déville (“Dice-town”) which plays with the cartographic nature of the poem.
