Summary

"This limited-edition book comprises thirty-three page spreads in full-color facsimile, selected from Jane Wodening's extraordinary three-volume scrapbooks, now housed in the Beinecke Library at Yale University. As a testament to the intersection of the domestic and creative life that Wodening and Brakhage led, these scrapbooks engage in collage as an artistic practice within the act of archiving and storytelling. The scrapbooks document the early-mid sixties as Wodening spent with her then-husband, avant-garde filmmaker Stan Brakhage and their children, during a particularly productive and important creative era in their lives ... Printed by Jason Walz at Uncommon Bindery. Naomi Harrison-Clay contributed the lettering, and Steve Clay and M.C. Kinniburgh developed the design. Judith Ivry bound the books in green cloth over boards with gold-stamped covers, and Conservation Resources created the metal-edge archival boxes in which the books are housed." -- Publisher's description.
