Identifier: CC-27273-27829
Scope and Contents There are several objects in this box which is like a one person "Assembling." One is an empty plastic bag with a three pages of documentation stapled to it. Gerz relates that he sent such empty plastic bags to friends, strangers from the Paris phone book and exhibition visitors at international art galleries. They were instructed to place personal old relics in the bags. Three hundred filled plastic bags were returned and sealed by Gerz who then deposited them in the construction foundation of the new Montparnasse Tower in Paris which was then covered by concrete. Since the bags were inaccessible, and no material trace of them remained, Gerz wrote that "from the idea and diverse initiatives which their realization made necessary as well as the impressions which I received during this time, I retain a memory more and more contradictory. The consequences which arise from this each day seem by now more important than the idea itself." There are duplicate, printed plastic envelopes...

 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.
