SPOOOOL: The Complete Poet Rolls / Lebon, Elizabeth., 2015

 Item
Identifier: CC-60917-10003774
Scope and Contents Spooool reproduces the one-off rolls written by Elizabeth Lebon between 2013 and 2014. The artist wrote with a typewriter on till rolls. "From Newquay to Brooksby's Walk" is 23 metres long. "Forwards not Forwards", "Tide Weighs Four", "Water Looking, Letter, Yes", and "Bodies" are all 10 m by 6 cm. These five texts tune in as five voices to Elizabeth Lebon's literary manifesto -- a 63-metre long typescript. The typewriter was used as a pretext for staying away from contemporary writing cliches. Repetition, mistakes, and fragile paper turn these rolls into an archetypal masterwork that took two years in the making, during which the artist's relationship with writing constantly drifted between form and content. Lebon developed a performance-oriented personal language, consistent with the very nature of her performances (see Twelve Tapestries). She sees this arrangement as a new form of writing that questions the sounds of her language -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth...

 Item
Identifier: CC-58060-10001306
Scope and Contents

Composed on an IBM Selectric typewriter. In a personal communication to the Sacknsrs, Cameron comments 'a companion piece perhaps to Apollinaire's "Il Pleut des voix de femmes" -- and perhaps strikes me particularly because as a Brit born and raised, the idea that fall (US) is a season (ie autumn, UK) is new and fresh to me -- so from spring to fall offers both a seasonal and a watery connection. Original ca 1780-1982, this copy 2013. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
