Hi Maryke,
I suggest that you contact the manufacturer of the cube, most likely it was
Made in Museum (http://www.mimcubes.com/)   We license artwork to them and
they go to museums and galleries directly also for their licensing.  If you
wish I have a contact person there and I can respond to you off-list with
her email if this is the correct manufacturer.  Also, I'm sure the library
would be able to give you a full credit line as well.
Kind regards,
Wendy Zieger

Subject: [ARLIS-L] citing a reproduction on an object
 
Good afternoon,
 
I've been asked by a graduate student how she should cite - in MLA - artwork
printed on a cube she purchased in a museum shop. The images are in the
collection of an Irish library; we hoped to find them in a published catalog
but unfortunately it didn't contain the images she has used. 
 
I've looked at the MLA handbook various and online sources, but can't find
any guidance for citing an object. And the rules for reproductions of visual
art all assume some sort of printed textual or online source. Aside of
contacting the Irish library - which' I've suggested to the student - I
don't know if there are other options.
 
Any suggestions you have will be greatly appreciated - thank you,
 
Maryke Barber
