1990 Accession subseries

All drawings pertain to building projects completed at UBC, with only a couple of exceptions at the end of this section. Most of the drawings in this accession are working drawings, with some preliminary and perspective drawings appearing in the files. In addition, there are some working drawings for several unbuilt UBC projects. The same building sub-contractors were used consistently throughout TBP&P's corporate life: D.W. Thomson, Mechanical Engineering; Simpson & MacGregor, Electrical Engineering; O. Safir, Structural engineering. In the 1970s, this group became the "Partners" when the corporate title changed for the last time [see: Administrative History in the full file list]. Some projects between 1923 and 1974 were commissioned by the federal or provincial government rather than the university.

1990s mail art (Part 1)

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.

1990s mail art (Part 2)

Subseries was created and collected from 1992 to 1994. The contents differ little from that of 1990s Mail Art (Part 1), and continues to reflect Banana’s involvement in later stages of the mail art network.

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.
