The Exorcism of Page 13 , 1996
Burtner placed six small squares on eight rows cut from magazines with the page number 13 on each square. The cut up technique, first used by William Burroughs, has inspired the work of many visual poets. Part of his name appears on the second square from the left, first row. Duchamp invented found art, and his name appears in the second square from the right, last row. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
The Exorcism of Page Thirteen / Burtner, Caryl., 1993
Burtner cut the page number and part of the text from page 13 of every book in her library and placed the small squares into randomly selected groupings, 48 to a page to form fortuitous poems and coincidences of meaning. The Sackner Archive also holds an original page from this book. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
