Scope and Contents

This book is a graphic melodrama of romance, crime, and passion. It addresses adolescent angst in all of its fashionably gory details. The snares and pitfalls of contemporary life, which all girls must struggle to survive, are here revealed through darkly comic and fiendishly noir prose, accompanied by lurid collages and unusual typography. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Identifier: CC-23368-23810
Scope and Contents

In this surrealistic drawing, the lungs are depicted as an image projector, with the external upper half of the torso as that image. A caption and a schematic of the eye imply that the artist is drawing or painting that image. The overall effect of Bee's drawing appears to relate to Hans Arp's ideas of the importance of breathing rhythms to the creation of art. This drawing appears in the periodical, Generator No.3. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Identifier: CC-30917-32372
Scope and Contents

The exhibition, subtitled "Text and/as Image and/as Design and/as Meaning," was an interdisciplinary exhibition of visual art, artists' books, graphic design, and visual poetry by artists who were examining the ways that texts and images produced meaning in contemporary society, specifically in the United States in the 1990s. In a detailed essay, the curator, Johanna Drucker writes, "In the late 20th century artists in all areas work with an awareness of the legacy of conceptual art's attention to language and idea, with pop art and postmodernism's interest in appropriating language and image from the realm of popular and consumer culture, and with the ongoing engagement of artists with a commitment to the traditions of innovative expression." The Sackner Archive lent twenty five works to this exhibition and are acknowledged in the curator's note. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
