Freakout (Temporal Bodies) by Luanne Martineau, ?2007
Description: "Luanne Martineau re-works each cover of FREAKOUT, grafting polymorphous forms from grey and coloured fleece onto the existing industrial grey felt surface. Abject and beautiful, these parasitic swellings, bruises, organic and decorative forms now invade and adorn the cover. Inside, the densely sandwiched texts are transplants from a range of history. German surrealist Hannah Hoch, Oscar Wilde, the British novelist Angela Carter and philosopher/theorist Georges Bataille, are intertwined with documentary photographs from the U.B.C. Architecture Department and images of the artist's recent work. Carefully guiding this complex mix in and out of delinquency and comedy, these recombined images and texts alter the meaning of both, re-editing historical and ideological understandings." {from publisher's web site}.; Includes bibliographical reference.; Library has copy no. 23 in a limited edition of 50.; Published by Flask Publishing in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada.

The Joan Flasch Artists' Book Collection from the John F Flaxman Library at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. (click 'browse'; actual images begin on page 3)
The web collection consists of more than 3000 digitised visual items: experimental art from the 1960s to the present, including but not limited to artists' book, sound art, performance art documentation, reference works, artists' 'zines, multiples, mail art, ephemera. There are about 150 pages of thumbnails: the vast majority of the catalogued material has now been digitised, although there are some 'unavailable' images in the first couple of thumbnail pages and towards the back of the collection.
The collection was named after the late Joan Flasch, a bookbinder and teacher at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. In almost all cases (seemingly), only a cover/container image is available, but there are clickable metadata terms that may turn up more works by the same artist, publisher etc.
