The Sackner Archive lent the painted triptych, "The Divine Comedy" to the first retrospective exhibition of Laffoley's paintings. This work is illustrated in the fold out pages and mentioned in the essay of Jeanne Marie Wasilik. J.W. Mahoney discussed the photographically reproduced serigraph, "The Alchemy of Breathing." The original drawing of this work was commissioned for the '"Beauty of Breathing" exhibition and is held by the Sackner Archive. Paul Laffoley contributed an insightful autobiographical essay in which he writes about his current project on the Pantheon. He also made collages expressly for illustrating this catalogue. Each of the paintings reproduced in the catalogue has an in depth comment by the Loffoley. The exhibition was curated by Elizabeth Ferrer, Director of the Austin Museum of Art. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

The theme of this exhibition was inspired by the 100th anniversary of Mallarme's Un coup de des jamais n'abolira le hasard. Combining music and poetry and preceding the Dadists and Futurists, Mallarme constituted a line that passed to Apollinaire, Michaux, Klee, Max Ernst and Fluxus. This catalogue demonstrates the writing and artistic expression emerging in the century after Mallarme's birth. The works in this catalogue are mainly oriented to calligraphic expressions. The book has extensive illustrations of the latter that are printed in color. The Sackner Archive holds artist books similar in imagery to pages of Hubaut's book reproduced in color in this catalogue. Nanni Balestrini contributed 13 panels of an alphabetical visual poetry piece that are reproduced in color in this catalogue. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
