Canadian Art. No.1/Spr / Racine R., 1993

 Item
Identifier: CC-20274-20671
Scope and Contents

The essay "Rober Racin's Magnum Opus" by Peggy Gale states that "in his peregrinations through history, music and art, this Montreal master of many media pursues a kind of fine madness." His technique and justification for making the "pages-miroirs," from the Petit Robert dictionary, two of which are held by the Sackner Archive, are described in detail. For example, a black square marks the 3 longest definitions on the page. Each time the defined word appears, it is underlined and gilded, etc. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
