Exhibition and Artist Catalogues

Subseries is made up of publications collected by Anna Banana, especially books and catalogs, pertaining to exhibitions and collections of artists’ work. Banana’s involvement with the Mail Art Network often included showing her own work all over Europe and North America, by sending mail art, artistamps, drawings and other works to invitational shows and exhibits. Most of those shows in which she partook are noted with small bookmarks, often in yellow, showing those pages where her work is referenced, although not all of the files in this series pertain to her, or even the mail art network. This subseries spans across genres.

Subseries includes exhibition catalogues, publications relating to specific exhibitions, catalogues by artists, product catalogues, directories, some mail art projects which resulted in an exhibit or show, books published in tandem with an exhibit, as well as documentation about invitational shows or competitions. Banana did not distinguish between any of these items and generally categorized them under “Exhibit Catalogs,” “Mail Art Catalogs” or “Artist Catalogs.” The distinction between the items in this subseries and those of Books or Zines often seem superfluous and depend greatly on the whims of Banana’s own boxing system.

Banana Rag

This subseries is made up of Banana’s long running Banana Rag newsletter, which she began in 1971 to provide the general public with information about her activities as Victoria Town Fool. Over the years, it became a means for her to provide information about her mail art activities, and the newsletter itself became a central part of her network presence. It also provided subscribers with information about other mail art opportunities, trends, or exhibitions.

This subseries contains copies of the newsletters, as well as an inventory of the newsletters, some original markups and pasteups, and information about subscribers.

Mail art show and publication invitations and catalogues

Subseries includes records of invitations and catalogues Banana received for various mail art shows and publication over the course of her involvement with the Mail Art Network, as well as some works which she compiled for inclusion in those shows. This includes letters of invitation directly addressed to Banana, open calls for submission, lists of participating artists, show posters and booklets, and packets of mail art sent for specific shows or publications.

Materials include show catalogues, posters, invitation letters, postcards, zines, envelopes, and graphic materials.
