Scope and Contents Back cover: The experimental art and poetry of the last half of the twentieth century offers a glimpse of the emerging networked culture that electronic devices will make omnipresent. Craig J. Saper demarcates this new genre of networked art, which uses the trappings of bureaucratic systems-money, logos, corporate names, stamps-to create intimate situations among the participants. In Saper's analysis, the pleasures that these aesthetic situations afford include shared special knowledge or new language among small groups of participants. Functioning as artworks in themselves, these temporary institutional structures-networks, publications, and collective works-give rise to a gift-exchange community as an alternative economy and social system. Saper explains how this genre developed from post-World War II conceptual art, including periodicals as artworks in themselves; lettrist, concrete, and process poetry; Bauhaus versus COBRA; Fluxus publications, kits, and machines; mail art and...

Scope and Contents Craig Saper curated this exhibition through loan of "Assemblings" entirely from the Sackner Archive. It might have been the largest exhibition of assemblings in a gallery space to date. His extensive essay describes the history of this international, alternative distribution system with its roots in Fluxus, Lettrisme, Situationism, Conceptualism and Cobra. Circumventing the established art gallery system, bookmakers, artists, visual poets, media artists send from 50 to 100 works to an assembler or compiler who distributes the assemblings to the participants and to subscribers. Worldwide networking systems developed, basically using the postal system and a few avant garde institutions, in an attempt to reach a wide audience and democratize art making. Assemblings combine both crafts and mechanized reproduction. Saper writes, "The artists cherish the production of carefully constructed individualized visual poems and constructions as well as the insistence that readers recuperate,...

Scope and Contents

This book was done while Atchley was teaching at the University of Victoria (1969-1971) in Canada. Although Atchley had a background in fine printing and typesetting, he had dabbled in xerography in Baltimore and conceived of this book as a xerox project. He bought 250 empty three ring notebooks and invited all his friends to contribute up to 10 pages, 250 copies of each page. To encourage participation, the invitation stated that all pages would be included without editing. By the end of the year, there were about 60 contributors. Dana Atchley's "Notebook 1," an assembling, was published in March 1970 about the same time as Assembling No.1, edited by Kostelanetz and Korn.The envelope within the notebook contains ten Fluxus performance direction sheets. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Ge(of Huth)'s life as an archivist and an occasional packrat have allowed him access to all kinds of materials just before their owners have destroyed them forever. He collected these with no idea in mind of what to do with them, and eventually "Film Clips" came to be. The proximate impetus for this...
