Subseries is made up of Anna Banana’s VILE Magazine and related items, notably two copies of each magazine, as well as related press, ads and promotional materials. VILE Magazine was a response to FILE Magazine (published by General Idea) and it’s movement away from the mail art scene towards more mainstream artistic practice. VILE ran somewhat irregularly from 1974 to 1983, culminating in a retrospective magazine titled “About VILE”. Like FILE, VILE was an artistic parody of LIFE magazine, but often covered challenging subjects, and pushed beyond the sensibilities of conventional thinking. Banana was aided by her then-partner Bill Gaglione, who edited 3 of the 7 editions.
Files contain all issues of the magazine, as well as various press clippings, ads, promotional materials and invitations to participate.
