About this Item

WAABAZI. Maria Hupfield, in collaboration with Canadiana Librarian Grant Hurley, invites and interleaves fellow Indigenous scholars' understandings of swans amongst a broader archival fabric; Scribbles, Comments, and Codes: The Marginalia of Marshall McLuhan. Thyrza Nichols Goodeve and Special Collections and Outreach Librarian John Shoesmith dive into the prophetic value of note-giving and taking in Marshall McLuhan's personal library of 4,500 books; �lvaro Retana: The Most Beautiful Writer in the World Jarrett Earnest and Rare Books and Special Collections department head David Fern�ndez recoup the neglected brilliance of one of Spanish Literature's preeminent gay authors of erotic fiction; Snakes in the Library. Diane Borsato and History of Science and Medicine Librarian Alexandra K. Carter chart a visual map that reveals how serpents permeate our past. This limited edition of artist books seeks to collapse the traditional boundaries between art making and archiving. Bringing together artists and writers from Canada and the United States with rare book and special collection librarians from the Fisher, ARCANA is an inspiring example of what can happen when historical collections are reanimated and traditional boundaries between disciplines dissolve and coalesce. Limited-edition of 50 box sets, each signed and numbered by artists and librarians. Swiss bound, Smyth sewn books printed with UV inks; foil-stamped covers. Text and cover stock by Fedrigoni, Italy. Slipcase: Colorplan paper by GF Smith, UK. Foil-stamped on 3 sides.
