Eleven of these private books survive, containing notes on her work, detailed interactions with artist friends and commentary on the alienations of gender politics, as well as philosophical queries into art's role in society and humorous asides from daily life.
In the decade before her infamous dropout piece culminating in a move to Dallas where she would remain until her death Lozano returned to these notebooks, editing the entries, sometimes blacking out entire pages.
