Subseries consists of a distinct set of subject files from the Field Development Office. They relate to programs or events organized by the Field Development Office, such as the Young Writers Workshop.
Subseries was created and collected from 1992 to 1998. Banana at this time continues to collect and engage with mail art, but also was beginning to shift towards a practice which could provide her with a more stable income, therefore restricting her mail art activities to active subscribers of her various publications. During this time, the scope of the mail art network is shifting. While many influential network pioneers were dying, including Cavellini in 1991, Ray Johnson in 1995, and Partz and Zontal of General Idea in 1994, many other artists shifted their focus elsewhere, causing mail art to change. Many networkers also attempted to sell their archives or determine ways to make a living off their network of artist correspondents, which is also reflected in Banana’s mail art and correspondence activities. Significant discussions about the role (and erasure) of women in histories of mail art occur at this time, and Banana is often central to these discussions.
Items in this subseries are predominantly letters and envelopes, often decorated, but also include photographs, drawings, xerox art, found objects and small sculptural items, collage, and other visual mediums, often integrated into the letters and envelopes.
Subseries was created from 1999-2000. While the internet had been present previously, more and more correspondence is conducted virtually during this period, with discourse occurring which questions the validity of email as “true” mail art, which is reflected in much of the material. Printing also becomes a digitally sourced endeavor, with more mail art reflecting access to stylization made available with programs like Microsoft Word and Adobe Photoshop.
Items in this subseries are predominantly letters and envelopes, often decorated, but also include photographs, drawings, xerox art, found objects and small sculptural items, collage, and other visual mediums, often integrated into the letters and envelopes. Banana would often print out emails as well, especially those which were distinctly related to the question of mail art and its transition into a digital sphere, and received much correspondence and art obviously created through digital means.
Bananology and other certificates
Subseries originates with Banana’s earliest performance art while she was Victoria’s Town Fool. It consists of various certificates in bananology (including bachelors and masters degrees) which Anna would give out to individuals who had “Gone Bananas”, often after providing Anna with a piece of Banana paraphernalia or a Banana-related fact or story. This activity often took place within the context of her mail art actions, where she would mail the certificates back to networkers who had provided her with banana-related mail. However, it began while she was still Town Fool, prior to or concurrent with her entry into the mail art network.
The subseries consists almost entirely of various certificates, as well as letters to correspondents.
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.
Between 1991 and 1995, Anna Banana published Artistamp News, a newsletter which provided information about artistamp production, artists, and networks. There were 8 editions in total. Files contain all of the artistamp news, an inventory of artistamp news, and originals (paste ups) of some volumes.
Subseries documents International Art Post, an artistamp publication. Anna Banana published International Art Post (IAP) from the late 1980s to the early 2010s. The International Art Post was made up of periodically published artistamp editions, which were funded by contributing artists. Artists would provide Banana with small scale artworks to be transferred in full colour to perforated gum-paper. These stamps were then given back to the artists for their own use. Files contain predominantly artistamps, but also include advertising materials and preparatory documentation and sketches.
Anna Banana drew, created collage, painted and printed from the early 1970s up until the late 2010s and beyond. This subseries contains the working drafts, final works, and copies of her visual art. This subseries consists mostly of graphical materials, including drawings, watercolour paintings, xerox art, photocopies of Anna’s original artwork, and postcards.
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.
In 2015, Anna gave away all of her banana items in an interactive event called “Regifting Bananas.” Each giveaway was accompanied by documentation of what was given away, and to whom. There was also an inventory of banana items for regifting.
Subseries consists of textual records, mainly the inventory and records of regifting.
Subseries is made up of various “One of a Kind Books”, which are small artist books, published between 2006 and 2008. Also included in this series are small edition books authored and published by Anna Banana between 1986 and 2012, as these were filed alongside the “One Of a Kind Books”. Project files include handmade books, binders, and tiny published books.
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.
