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

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
