of the hooks; any wire constricting this space must be removed. The D rings should be approximately a quarter of the
distance of the total frame height from the top of the frame in order to avoid slanting away from the wall. Wires,
eyehooks, and clip frames may not be used for hanging, Initial Point Gallery also provides four display cases, each with
different dimensions (fig. 3), for displaying three-dimensional artwork.
