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.

Carnets de Bord: Festival des ecritures / Balestrini N ; Ferrer E ; Hubaut J ; Noel B ; Pey S ; Metail M., 1997

 Item
Identifier: CC-31655-33159
Scope and Contents

The theme of this exhibition was inspired by the 100th anniversary of Mallarme's Un coup de des jamais n'abolira le hasard. Combining music and poetry and preceding the Dadists and Futurists, Mallarme constituted a line that passed to Apollinaire, Michaux, Klee, Max Ernst and Fluxus. This catalogue demonstrates the writing and artistic expression emerging in the century after Mallarme's birth. The works in this catalogue are mainly oriented to calligraphic expressions. The book has extensive illustrations of the latter that are printed in color. The Sackner Archive holds artist books similar in imagery to pages of Hubaut's book reproduced in color in this catalogue. Nanni Balestrini contributed 13 panels of an alphabetical visual poetry piece that are reproduced in color in this catalogue. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
