Bob Flanagan Collection
A Guide and Inventory
Spec.Rare.cms.329


INTRODUCTION

BOB FLANAGAN (1952-1996) was an American poet, comic, and performance artist. He was perhaps best known for his compelling performances, many of which revolved around the themes of pain and bodily presence, related to the cystic fibrosis from which he suffered since childhood. This collection has materials from approximately 1970 to 1996, and includes serials and books (many with Flanagan’s works and writings in them), VHS and cassette tapes, computer disks, photos, manuscripts, documentation of his performances, poetry, correspondence, professional and personal files, flyers, material by and referring to Sheree Rose (Flanagan’s partner), and other materials. The following inventory was provided by the donor; the collection has not yet been processed.
