"Meesian picture description: The 'NO-OFFICER I' is a self-portrait 'Meese'! The 'No-Officer I' is a fighter of art, so a soldier without ideology, so an 'art soldier'! The 'Meese soldier' says always 'No', so 'No' to any ideology! The three 'Eights' are three art orders of infinity in the form of the infinity sign! The 'No-Officer I' is a total artisan! (The Meese art soldier lives in the 'Art Egg') "
