Abstract Or Scope
"This book is made of two parts: the first is based on statistical data, generally on global samples. Pages are from 1 to 32. The second is based on surveys of reported data (perceptions, sensations, beliefs. Pages are from a to w [that is, a to v] You can read the two sections separately, or you can use the index to find links between the two. Choose you subject, match the numbers and letters, and then overlap the pages."--Page [1] "Frequently, the debate regarding gender equality becomes a clash of opinions, impeding any real inquiry. In The Veil is Seen Only When it is Lifted, the artist provides accumulated data as an instrument for breaching this impasse. Origoni visually restructures this conversation, arranging statistics with simple, playful design and breaking up the codex's linear narration. The book is composed with two studies; their bindings fall on opposite sides of the book. A Coptic-bound section presents quantitative data and the spiral-bound section reports experience-based data. Viewers are invited to read these parts separately or simultaneously, pages can be overlapped in patterns that unveil new information." -- https://wsworkshop.org/collection/veil-seen-lifted/ (viewed June 7, 2018)

Content Warning

ARVAS is an aggregator of archival resources. ARVAS does not have control of the descriptive language used in our members’ finding aids.

Finding aids may contain historical terms and phrases, reflecting the shared attitudes and values of the community from which they were collected, but are offensive to modern readers. These include demeaning and dehumanizing references to race, ethnicity, and nationality; enslaved or free status; physical or mental ability; religion; sex; and sexual orientation and gender identity.

Many institutions and organizations are in the process of reviewing and revising their descriptive language, with the intent to describe materials in more humanizing, inclusive, and harm-reductive ways. As members revise their descriptive language, their changes will eventually be reflected in their ARVAS finding aids.
