Wikipedia: Jean Maurice Eugène Clément Cocteau( 5 July 1889 "“ 11 October 1963) was a French poet, novelist, dramatist, designer, playwright, artist and filmmaker. Cocteau is best known for his novel Les Enfants terribles (1929), and the films Blood of a Poet (1930), Les Parents terribles (1948), Beauty and the Beast (1946) and Orpheus (1949). His circle of associates, friends and lovers included Kenneth Anger, Pablo Picasso, Jean Hugo, Jean Marais, Henri Bernstein, Yul Brynner, Marlene Dietrich, Coco Chanel, Erik Satie, María Félix, Édith Piaf and Raymond Radiguet. Houedard's epitaph to Cocteau probably relates to pace, the Latin word for peace. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

John Furnival: Ends and Odds / Moxham, Bernard, curator ; Furnival A., 2012

 Item
Identifier: CC-55698-9999283
Scope and Contents Box is labeled Bernard Moxham. He is the curator of this third volume of Furnival's works. The contents include The Furnival Family, Mail-Art, More Botanical Works, More Locative and Vocative Works, More Visual Poetry, Miscellany and Work-in-Progress and Mail-Art Interviews with John Furnival - Part 3. Bernard Moxham contributes the forward."It might be thought that a volume of John Furnival's work entitled 'Ends and Odds' contains only minor works compared with those illustrated within the preceding volumes.While this volume contains work that, for space reasons alone, could not be incorporated into volumes 1 and 2, the viewer/reader must beware - there are no hierarchies in John's world. An ink landscape drawing is no inferior to a screen, his modernist of postmodernist works are not intrinsically better than his more traditional art, a print is no worse than a drawing or painting, and a large scale work is not superior to a postcard. In other words, Johm Furnival distrusts the...

John Furnival: Lost for Words / Moxham, Bernard, curator ; Furnival A ; Finlay IH ; Williams J ; Meyer T ; Kostelanetz R., 2011

 Item
Identifier: CC-54559-990010
Scope and Contents Box is labeled Bernard Moxham. He is the curator of this first of three volumes of Furnival's works. The contents include Early Works; Word Machines; Screens; Alphabets, Letters and Numbers; Botanical Works; Book Illustrations; Dorthy's Umbrellas ; Mail Art Interviews.

Two sweaters knit by Astrid Furnival and designed by John and Astrid are illustrated on page 148. Bernard Moxham contributes the forward."John Furnival is infuriating, at least to art critics and commentators. He is neither a traditionalist nor a signed-up member of the avant-garde. He eschews a consistency of style that could pigeonhole him into an '-ism'. He swaps and changes styles and media in no chronological order. He shows no obvious progression that could catergorise his work...

John Furnival: The Locative - Vocative Cases / Moxham, Bernard, curator ; Furnival A ; Furnival A ; Hockney D ; Finlay IH., 2012

 Item
Identifier: CC-54561-990011
Scope and Contents Box is labeled Bernard Moxham. He is the curator of this second of three volumes. The contents include Topical Drawings, Kilpeck Drawings, Mazes, Eric Satie (and Music), Other Portraits and Related Works, Mail-Art Interviews. Bernard Moxham contributes the forward."Stephane Mallarme famously stated that everything existed to end up in a book. At that time,images were not as pervasive as they are today, nor did the computer exist. It would be argued that nowadays everything exists to end up as an image and, in this regard, John Furnival works mainly to channel information into visual form. Like his long term collaborator, Jonathan Williams ( an American poet, publisher, and bon vivant who took a profound, yet jocular, dislike to poetry-tasters), John Furnival regards as lamentable a contemporary art scene that fixates on mere fashion and naked commercialism. To John Furnival, art is neither grandiose nor commonplace but is a natural activity to be enjoyed and appreciated by all....

join the flag / Gerz, Jochen., 1968

 Item
Identifier: CC-27512-28567
Scope and Contents

A cluster of i's float above the word "jo ntheflag," an image that suggests there is a large group of individuals who wish to remain outside conventionality. In this image of the poem, three of the 'i's' show remnants of erasure. This differs from the smaller version No.495 that has different remnants of erasure. This typing is not included in Gerz's Catalogue Raisonne Volume III. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
