Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies Special Collection • Harvard University

USA-CCCP. Points of Contact.
Catherine Mannick – (E-E) Evgenij Kozlov
Correspondence 1979 – 1990

Harvard Accession Numbers of Art and Photographs

The table below from the “USA-CCCP Points of Contact” correspondence presents, in nine columns, the main data and features of (E-E) Evgenij Kozlov‘s artworks (“mail art” and other), as well as of Kozlov’s and Catherine Mannick’s photographs. Additionally, there is a postcard with text on the reverse side (MFP_0004, LetterJ). Consequently, this table does not include the letters themselves and other artefacts – such as notes and telegrams – from the correspondence that are also in the Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies Special Collection. Finally, it also includes Kozlov’s diaries from 1979 to 1983 (KMFP_0301) as part of the artist’s donation to the Davis Center in 2022. In this way, the total number of items listed in the table is 118 + 1 = 119.

The list of photographs includes only prints of negatives and slides, but not the slides that have been preserved in a digitised form. Most of the latter can, however, be studied in the online publication – in the first place, in the chapter “Slides 1980-1983. Towards Spiritual Realism.

Notes to columns 1-9:

Column 1 presents Harvard’s accession numbers in ascending order. In many cases, identical numbers were given to all or most pictures belonging to the same letter.

Column 2 indicates the corresponding number from Kozlov’s own archive, where each item is provided with an individual label.

Labels starting with “E-E-pho” refer to photographs. Vintage prints end with “op” (=original print), for instance E-E-pho-FT33-op (KMFP_0046), while painted photos end with opc (original print coloured), such as E-E-pho-BZ63-opc (KMFP_0029). (More about film numbers >>). This category also incudes most photo-collages, e.g. E-E-pho-LP12-opc (KMFP_0030)

Labels starting with “E-E” followed by six digits refer to other artworks, e.g. E-E-180134 (KMFP_0022). The second and third digits provide information about the year of creation – in this case, 1980.

Column 3 refers to the respective page in the chronology-folder created in 2021 that contains the complete correspondence in chronological order, with additional notes and tables (see Chronology and Archival Numbers of Letters).

Column 4 is Harvard’s classification distinguishing between three different work types. Mail art (40 items) are works of any technique sent through a letter. This category includes 6 vintage prints (KMFP_0016) the reverse sides of which are text pages of Letter N. Works that can no longer be related to a specific letter or that reached the addressee in other ways are specified as drawing, mixed media, statue, etc (17 items). Finally, “photograph” (61 items) refers to printed black and white or coloured photographs – both by Kozlov and Mannick –  with the exception of Kozlov’s six vintages prints from KMFP_0016.

Column 5 gives are more specific description of the technique of the artworks, for instance “monotype”, “painted vintage print”. From the 61 photographs, it singles out Catherine Mannick’s colour pictures (13). Accordingly, the other 48 photographs are by E-E Kozlov, 42 black and white vintage prints (“vintage print”) and 6 colour photographs (“colour picture”). Note that those six vintage prints defined by Harvard as “mail art” in Column 4 add to a total of 48 vintage prints in Column 5.

Column 6 refers to the letter of which the item in question is part. Blank spaces mean that an item cannot be connected to a particular letter, or that the letter in question no longer exists.

Column 7 indicates the online page where an item has been published, provided with the respective link. Online publications exist of all of Kozlov’s artworks and many of his photographs, as well as some of Mannick’s photographs. Unpublished items can be looked up in the pdf-folder, with the exception of KMFP_0034, a picture of Mannick and a friend of hers from 1979.

Column 8 lists the dates the respective items were created. Dates consisting of day, month and year were taken from the corresponding letter. Dates may be approximate, especially when an item cannot be connected to a letter or has not been dated.

Column 9 indicates the dimensions – height by width – in centimetres, rounded up / down to 0.5 cm. The attribute “unfolded” means that the dimensions refer to a folded card, with the illustration being next to a text page.
