Description

The Perverse Library includes Professor Craig Dworkin's bibliography (2,427 titles), a supplementary bibliography of absent and imagined books, and an accompanying essay arguing libraries are in fact defined not by what they contain, but by what books they exclude or fail to include. The essay also investigates the histories of libraries, makes a theoretical argument about the relation of canons to architectural space, and explores the psychology of collecting – including the pathology of bibliomania: 'He had but one idea, one love, one passion: books. And this love, this passion burned within him, consuming his days, devouring his existence.' Although they present themselves as figures of rational organization, library catalogues and classification systems can only hope to distract from the aberrant chaos they cannot exorcise. Published to accompany the exhibition The Perverse Library at Shandy Hall, Coxwold, North Yorkshire, 4 September – 31 October 2010, curated by Simon Morris.
