Showcasing archival materials from the early years of John Martin's Black Sparrow Press, this catalogue brings to light the collaborative relationship between writers, editors, designers, and presses. Prominently featured are the works of poets Charles Bukowski, Robert Creeley, John Ashbery, and others. The exhibit, which took place at the University of Alberta's Bruce Peel Special Collections Library (home of the Black Sparrow Press Archive), was curated by twelve University of Alberta graduate students under the guidance of Dr. Michael J. O'Driscoll of the Department of English and Film Studies.
Michael O'Driscoll is Professor of English at the University of Alberta. His teaching and research interests include poetry and poetics, twentieth-century American literature, the history of the book, and critical and cultural theories. In addition to articles published in journals such as Contemporary Literature, Studies in the Literary Imagination, Mosaic, and English Studies in Canada, he has co-edited After Postructuralism: Writing the Intellectual History of Theory (2002) with Tilottama Rajan, and co-authored A Bibliography of the Black Sparrow Press Archive (2003) with Jason Dewinetz.
