When asked about is \u201cGabberjabbs\u201d and extensive use of footnotes, Hamady responded that he wanted to take a non-scholarly approach to the scholarly medium of footnoting. He discussed one of his collaborations, where the footnotes take over the page and eventually the poem disappears. He also noted that much to his delight writer Mary Lydon had taken on the task of defining \u201cGabberjabb<\/font>6<\/sup><\/span>,\u201d so that he could later refute her definitions. <\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

A second \u201cConversation with Walter Hamady\u201d sponsored by the Graduate Art Congress was held on Wednesday morning in the Main Library’s Second Floor Conference Room. <\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

Having Walter Hamady come to the Libraries to talk about his work and walk us through the exhibition was time well spent. The exhibition \u201cFour Decades of Walter Hamady and the Perishable Press Limited\u201d will run In the North Exhbition Hall of the Main Library during regular hours<\/font>7<\/sup><\/span> through July 2004.<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n
