Phonic Slices and Rubbings / Kubota, Nobuo., 2001

Item

Identifier: CC-53509-291282

Scope and Contents

Nelson Ball: 'Nobuo Kubota's bookwork Phonic Slices is one manifestation of a much larger project. Kubota began by randomly gluing wooden letters into a large sculptural work that he calls a 'phonic loaf.' He then sawed the loaf into slices, which yielded a sequence of sculptures that act as visual poems and sound scores for public performance. Next, Kubota made charcoal and graphite rubbings of the individual slices. A selection of these rubbings, along with treated scans of the original slices, make up the content of this book.' -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Picasso the Sorcerer / Jacoby, Ruth., 1986

Item

Identifier: CC-08227-8389

Scope and Contents

Jacoby notes that the word, spiral, has its origins from the latin word, spirare, which means to breathe. This text and Picasso images on this page oppose a page with a quote from Picasso, "Work is my respiration. When I cannot work, I cannot breathe Jacoby then creates a permutation with a Picasso-related theme: work, word, wore, wove, cove, dove, love, live. She draws a spiral and closes the poem with the words Aspiration, Inspiration, Respiration. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
