Description

The collaborative work of Kathy Acker and Paul Buck is presented in this volume. Based on their correspondence from the early 1980s, Buck explores themes of appropriation, sampling, and plagiarism, which remain relevant today. Acker's letters and re-readings of her published work are used to blur the line between visual arts and literature, incorporating documents into fiction and creating a transgressive work that spans their initial meetings in Amsterdam and Paris. This book brings together two notable practitioners' perspectives on the creative process. Through Buck's work, the boundaries between art and literature are challenged, resulting in a unique and thought-provoking publication.
