Artist Trading Cards

In the late 1990s, Artists began using the small 2.5-inch by 3.5-inch trading card templates as the basis for a new way to share small format artworks. In the early 2000s, Anna Banana began to create and trade her own cards, amassing a fairly large collection, and producing a significant number of her own card editions. This series is made up of her own creations, as well as cards collected from artists at the trading events which she attended.

This series is mostly made up of trading cards in binders or folders, with some information relating to the development of this art form in the file called “ARTIST TRADING CARDS: The Story.” Banana compiled cards into binders either by year or by significance, and kept her own separate from those which she received from others.

Artistamps

In the mid-1980s, Anna Banana began to seriously consider ways that she might be able to create income outside of performance art. Using skills she learned while working at printers and publishers in San Francisco and Vancouver, Banana began to create and sell artistamps, and collected multiple artistamps created by others. Artistamps are a kind of Cinderella stamp used often in mail art, which differ from forgeries or other illegal stamps in that they do not intent do defraud authorities or stamp collectors, but rather are created with the intent to be art. They make up an important aspect of the mail art genre. Banana’s activities often included the production and use of artistamps, especially after she gained access to perforation machines and colour printing in the 1980s.

This series is made up of many of her artistamp sheets, as well as various sketches, final drawings, and printer transparencies created during the process of artistamp production, as well as stamps collected from others.

Artistic, literary, and musical projects

The series contains literary, artistic, and music works and materials created and aggregated by Mary Olga Park from 1909 to 1982.

Park worked in a variety of literary genres, producing poetry, drama, and non-fiction works. During the 1960s and 1970s, Park wrote and self-published her spiritual writings, consisting of detailed records of her visionary experiences, Biblical studies, philosophical reflections, theology, and studies of the mystics. These include: Between Time and Eternity (Vantage Press, 1960), Man, The Temple of God (self, 1968), The Book of Admonition and Poetry (self, 1969), and An Open Door (self, 1974). Park also loved arts and crafts, and in her spare time she would make booklets, pastel, charcoal drawings and sketches, and bookmarks with religious themes. Some sketches include depictions of individuals she saw in her visions. Often her poetry appears in her sketchbooks, inspiring the art surrounding the text. She also kept materials and books as inspiration for her artistic endeavors.

The series also contains records related to both the educational materials Park created for her position teaching at St. Mary’s Anglican Church Sunday school as well as the teaching materials Park created for her Society of the Mystical Communion of Christ (S.M.C.C.). As a Sunday school teacher, Park had a handmade book to teach students quotes from the Bible called the, “Book of Light.” She also rearranged parables of Jesus as rhythmic readings and recontextualized the parables with aspects of the New Testament. For the SMCC, Park created her own Communion Service, Sanctuary procedures, betrothal and christening procedures, and morning meditation practices which had corresponding handmade booklets.

Before moving to Canada, Park had a promising musical career in England as a soprano, but before it flourished, she moved to Canada. Park became a certified music teacher through the Tonic Sol-Fa College and taught music lessons in Vancouver, sang in the church choir, and her love of music endured. Park admired the works of Georg Friedrich Handel, and not only recorded herself singing excerpts from his oratorios (Jephthah and Messiah) but also re-arranged the composer’s Messiah to better fit her spiritual understanding of the work. Park played the autoharp, and arranged and composed music for the instrument. Music was an integral to Park’s communion service and throughout her life, she composed and recorded hymns for the communion procedure.

Series consists of manuscripts and typescripts of Park’s work, unpublished manuscripts of poetry, prose, and plays; handmade booklets, manuals, procedures and instructions for her “learners,” Sunday school teaching material, prayers, and talks and other study series material; sheet music, transcriptions, arrangements, annotated and inscribed hymnal books, musical certificates, and autoharp transcriptions; bookmarks and booklets, sketchbooks and artworks, and vinyl recordings of Park singing.

Arts I series

The idea for Arts I at UBC can be traced to "Discipline and Discovery," a report produced by a committee chaired by Arts Dean Kaspar Naegele in 1965. The report recommended that the "first year in Arts should consist of a core program of general studies based on broadly humanistic concepts, taught by experienced instructors through a combination of lectures to large groups and seminar discussion for small groups." Although the committee's recommendations were not accepted, Naegele's successor Dean Dennis Healey passed the task of making recommendations to a new group established to advise him on curriculum. The Curriculum Advisory Committee met through 1965/66 and submitted its report in May 1966. Following extensive discussions, the University offered, in 1967, voluntarily, its Arts I program. Its primary objectives were to "introduce the student effectively to the University's intellectual life and give him a less fragmented view of education than is normally offered to first-year students. In addition, the students undertaken will encourage a broad, though the disciplined, approach to the world of within and without the University." Arts I was initially established as a three-year pilot project, after which it would be subject to an evaluation process.

The series consists of minutes, reports and correspondence about the development and early growth of UBC's Arts I program.
