scopecontent: label: Scope and Contents
content: This series consists of 45 artist interviews, as well as recordings of performances and art talks dating from 1974-1975 on 108 sound cassettes, along with a few interview transcripts.  The sound recordings appear to be part of the UCLA oral history project "LA Community Artists."  Most of the cassettes are artist interviews conducted by Danieli, but there are also recordings of art talks, panel discussions, seminars, performances, and informal group discussions.  Artists include David Antin, Eleanor Antin, Judith Bettelheim, Nick Brigante, Annita Delano, Allan Kaprow, Peter Krasnow, Peter Plagens, Gary Lloyd, John McLaughlin, Shirley Pettibone, Betye Saar, and John White, among many others. 

Several of the cassette tape containers have detailed handwritten labels that specify the location of the interview, the subject of discussion, and other information.
