Jerome Rothenberg contributes a pre-face in which he writes that "Footnotes, presented here, is the accounting of where Alison Knowles' feet (and hands and mind) have taken her." The pages of this book are reproductions of notebook pages dating from 1975 to 1995, inscribed and collaged by Knowles. As Knowles herself stated, "It is important to remember that we are free to make art and poetry out of anything: A loaf of bread, some beans, a hasty jotting on the train." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

This duplicates the correspondence for the exhibition archive and includes letters and cards by Arakawa, George Brecht, Tenny Duchamp, Ovind Fahlstrom, Ray Johnson, Allan Kaprow, Alison Knowles, Ron Kitaj, Gianni Simonetti, and Wolf Vostell. There are drawings by Baruchello, Mary Bauermeister, George Brecht, and James Nutt, and a collage by Granni Simonetti that deals with plans for assembling the found objects to be placed in a plexiglas box by museum personnel. The box is also accompanied by the catalogue of the exhibition. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
