Series 6: Printed Material, 1959-2013
3.3 Linear feet
Boxes 19-23, OVs 46-47

Printed material includes announcements and catalogs for solo and group exhibitions, press and publicity clippings from magazines and newspapers, 9 publications about or including Antonakos, and posters for exhibitons, some of which may be duplicated in Series 5: Exhibition Files.
Of note is a poster for an exhibition not documented elsewhere: Antonakos: Exhibition of Sewlages at Avant Garde Gallery (1959), which demonstrated the artist's exploration of assembling a variety of materials into constructions he named "Sewlages;" and a poster for Fire Hole (1971) at Madison Art Center which has a center burn image created by actually burning paper to reflect the concept of the exhibition, that 20 drawings executed in April 1971 by Antonakos at the University of Wisconsin-Madison were to be stacked and burned at the conclusion of the exhibition and the remains sent to the artist.
Also found are 2 small edition silkscreens hand-cut by the artist: one for Neons for the University of Massachusetts (1978) and one for the graduation recital of the artist's son, Stephen B. Antonakos, at Purchase College (1980).
