Best Examples of How Mail Art Evolved

Anna Banana set this subseries aside in two boxes titled “Best Examples of How Mail Art Evolved,” evidently showing the ways that mail art expanded from its initial scope in the 1960s and 1970s. The bulk of the items in this subseries are dated after the year 2000, detailing some of the latest innovations in the mail art network, as well as various compendiums or encyclopedias of mail artists and their work.

The subseries contains mostly books about mail art, as well as some newspapers, mail art projects, zines, posters and other published material.

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.

OOK (One Of a Kind) Books

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.
