SC96 Local Zines, Mini-Art, and Mail Art Collection Finding Aid
-
Description
-
This collection includes zines, mini-comics, and mail art created by local Kansas Citians. Zines (pronounced "zeens" as in the word magazine) are self-published works of art and writing where the author creates the content, layout, and has a large hand in the production of the final product. Mini-comics are similar to zines in that they are self-published comics produced and distributed by the artists. Mail art is a form of self-expression that takes place through mail correspondence where artists share collages, artwork, and writing with each other. This is an open collection that continues to grow as donations are acquired from local artists and zine collectors.
