52 Transactions is an artists’ book by Kathy Slade. It is published by Trapp Editions/ Sigurdardottir in conjunction with Slade’s year-long performance Fifty-Two Weeks of Transactions at the Lending Library, a project curated by Lorna Brown for Group Search: Art in the Library. From September 7, 2006 to August 30, 2007, Slade borrowed a book a week from the main branch of the Vancouver Public Library. The transaction receipts have been compiled into an artists’ book that represents a year of the artist’s reading. As the book’s endnotes explain, 1 transaction slip is missing due to a computer malfunction, and 6 more are missing due to a civic strike, resulting in 7 blank pages. Edition of 500.
