Abstract markings
Found in 1067 Collections and/or Records:
Evidence of Living / Bernat, Robin., 1991
Expire - Expressly / Cross, Doris., 1979
Cross altered the pages of Webster's 1913 edition of the dictionary leaving "found words" to comprise a new poetry. In this sense, her work is similar to the artistic process employed by Tom Phillips in his book, A Humument. In this print, the page defining the word, "expire" has been altered by covering most of the words with images having indistinct features of human faces, perhaps to symbolize the vanishing of life. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

First Collaboration: Introduction, 1995
Baroni indicates on a collaged printed element that this work arose from daily visits with his son, Giovanni, over a week's time to a public park near his home. Giovanni asked Vittore to take photographs of various scenes in the park. Vittore wrote t he composed texts on his PC as a subsequent chain of thought process remembering this experience. Giovanni did some wild scribblings with crayons which Vittore arranged as part of a 9 panel grid in three collages, together with photographs and texts. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Flatland: a romance of many dimensions / Beaulieu, Derek ; Perloff M ; Goldsmith K ; Phillips T., 2007
In the afterward, Marjorie Perloff refers to E.A. Abbot's "Flatland, originally published in 1884 and reprinted by Princeton University Press in 1991. The Victorian Abbot invents a two-dimentional universe inhabited entirely by polygons. beaulieu's writing-through of this whimsical tale immediately brings to mind Tom Phillips's 'A Humument', but there is, in fact, little similarity between the two texts. For whereas Phillips's treated book foregrounds and reframes particular passages in his source text, W.H. Mallock's 'A Human Document', producing delicious parodies, cartoon narratives, double entendres and sexual punning, beaulieu's 'Flatland' contains no words whatsoever - indeed, not even the letters of the alphabet, much less ideograms or symbols." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
