Writings, audiovisual works, photographic works, correspondence with literary colleagues, and other papers by or relating to French poet Jean-Franç?ois Bory (1938- ). The materials document Bory's literary and artistic works across several genres and media, in particular his interest for visual poetry, sound poetry, film directing, and photomontage. Drafts, paste-ups, and proofs from literary projects, as well as production materials for the films SAGA (1967-1968) and Quant au livre (2004), provide evidence of Bory's creative process. Correspondence, article clippings, photographs of Bory, event programs, and promotional material for exhibitions trace his public career. Works of other avant-garde poets contemporary to Bory are represented in the collection by commercially-released CDs and DVDs of the multimedia label Son@rt, co-founded by Bory and fellow French poet Jacques Donguy.
