Collection consists of letters, especially mailart, prints, collages, invitations and catalogues sent to Jeff Berner by Lourdes Castro between 1966 and 1987. Several of her letters are written on printed invitations and announcements, including posters, for her exhibitions. Others include collage and small plastic objects made by Castro, as well as a few photographs. One of the photos is a snapshot of her husband, the artist René Bertholo. Six of her prints are included, most of which are silkscreen prints. The bulk of the material consists of invitations, announcements and catalogues for Castro's exhibits in Europe. Two of the posters are printed on muslin, one on a sheet of plastic. Also in the archive is a copy of Castro's book Par suite, consisting entirely of illustrations.
