Saito Yoshishige made a number of works in this series during 1966 and 1967, giving each the title 'Hanger'. Each features a distorted rectangular shape hanging by a central fulcrum against a monochrome background. Other examples were exhibited at the National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo, in solo exhibitions of his work held in 1978 and 1984.
