Specific Research Institute – Proof Positive That Germany Is Going Bananas

Subseries arose out of an interactive project that Banana conducted out of Germany in the mid-1990s through her Specific Research Institute called “Proof Positive That Germany is Going Bananas” (often shortened to PPTGISB). Using results from what Banana called “Roar Shack Banana Peel Tests”, as well as personality inventory response forms, interviews and other tests, Banana culminated her research into a large report and exhibit of German banana related items published in 1994.

The series consists of tests, reports, press and promotional materials, as well as banana artworks and correspondence that Anna collected over the course of her travels for this project.

Specific Research Institute – Miscellany

Subseries contains files from various small Specific Research Institute projects conducted by Anna Banana, between 1993 and 2015. Many of these were small surveys of “Banana Culture” which Banana carried out while she was staying in certain regions or cities, as well as newsletters and updates regarding SRI activities.

Files are made up of textual records, mostly newsletters or reports, as well as some posters and response forms.

Specific Research Institute – But Is It Art?

Subseries consists of documents relating to an interactive art project called “But Is It Art?” that Banana carried out throughout various European cities in the late 2000s and early 2010s. Under the auspices of the Specific Research Institute, Banana (in her role as Dr. Anna Freud Banana) would ask participants to show if various (often banana related) items were, in fact, art.

Subseries contains response forms arranged into various city files where Banana conducted her research, as well as travel ephemera, reports, posters and programs, as well as exhibition documents related to the project.
