Reading the Removal of Literature [Craig Dworkin, Editor] / Thurston, Nick., 2006

 Item
Identifier: CC-48926-69964
Scope and Contents This book is a reading of Maurice Blanchot's seminal book The Space of Literature, performed on the page as an annotative writing that encircles the should-be space of print. Through the progressive appropriation and then erasure ("cancelled") of Blanchot's text, and through a processual transposition of hand-writing into formal typography, Thurston addresses the very question of the possibility of literature that obsessed Blanchot. The meaning of the candid reflections and meditations which form the incisive marginalia is founded in a tension with the suggestions of the absent text. Floating alone these annotations may have little worth or make little sense, but between these covers they do not deny the history of their derivation: They are constantly anchored by that which is missing, in a creative erring, in a process of over-coming, which in this book asserts an equality of presence between the read and the written; the reading and the writing.

Segregation by Robert Penn Warren, 1996

 Item — Box 88: [Barcode: 31858072538220]
Identifier: CC-24183-24635

This process is imperfect so that some of letters and fragments of words still remain. The spine of the book has been deliberately cracked to allow the book to be displayed in its opened state. This work was exhibited at the Agnes Scott College Gallery, Atlanta, January 2001.In a letter (2001) to the Sackners, Beube made the following comments. In Segregation, a metamorphosis occurs, transforming the printed text to empty space, and the black ink to dust. Although entire words have become illegible, the remnants of broken letters and vowels can be seen and felt on the crater-like surfaces of the pages.Portions of the book's text have been removed by drilling out each word one page at a time, a process that fragments the book's content. Multiple pages become translucent white veils beneath which a number of underlying pages may be...
