| Title: A Mistake Is A Beautiful Thing |
| By (author): Devin Troy Strother, Yuri Ogita |
| ISBN10-13: 0894390961 : 9780894390968 |
| A Mistake Is A Beautiful Thing is published by Printed Matter in collaboration with LA-based Coloured Publishing. The new hardcover work is the latest from designer Yuri Ogita and artist Devin Troy Strother, and follows a companion installation by Coloured Publishing at Printed Matter earlier this year. The loosely organised collection of images â taken both by and of Devin and Yuri â offers an offhand perspective into the duoâ s daily life as artists and publishers. Accompanied by short and often humorous captions, the photographs (sometimes overlapping) are comprised of glimpses into studio life â collages in progress, unhung paintings, spilled paint â as well as other encountered objects â book covers, plants, and many dime bags. The work moves indiscriminately through its recurring motifs to build on a dialog that is irreverent but assured, examining art and its references, cultural phenomena and the experience of being a person of color in the US. |

| Title: Art-Rite |
| By (author): Edit DeAk |
| ISBN10-13: 099155857X : 9780991558575 |
| Edited by Walter Robinson, Edit DeAk, and Joshua Cohn, Art-Rite was published in New York City between 1973 and 1978. The periodical has long been celebrated for its underground/overground position and its cutting, humorous, on-the-streets coverage and critique of the art world. Art-Rite moved easily through the expansive community it mapped out, paying homage to an emergent generation of artists, including many who wereâ or would soon becomeâ the defining voices of the era. Through hundreds of interviews, reviews, statements, and projects for the pageâ as well as artist-focused and thematic issues on video, painting, performance, and artistsâ booksâ Art-Riteâ s sharp editorial vision and commitment to spotlighting the work of artists stands as a meaningful and lasting contribution to the art history of New York City and beyond. All issues of Art-Rite are collected and published here. Featured artists include Vito Acconci, Kathy Acker, Bas Jan Ader, Laurie Anderson, John Baldessari, Gregory Battcock, Lynda Benglis, Mel Bochner, Marcel Broodthaers, Trisha Brown, Chris Burden, Scott Burton, Ulises Carrión, Judy Chicago, Lucinda Childs, Christo, Diego Cortez, Hanne Darboven, Agnes Denes, Ralston Farina, Richard Foreman, Peggy Gale, Gilbert & George, John Giorno, Philip Glass, Leon Golub, Peter Grass, Julia Heyward, Nancy Holt, Ray Johnson, Joan Jonas, Richard Kern, Lee Krasner, Shigeko Kubota, Les Levine, Sol LeWitt, Lucy Lippard, Babette Mangolte, Brice Marden, Agnes Martin, Gordon Matta-Clark, Rosemary Mayer, Annette Messager, Elizabeth Murray, Alice Neel, Brian Oâ Doherty,Genesis P-Orridge, Nam June Paik, Charlemagne Palestine, Judy Pfaff, Lil Picard, Yvonne Rainer, Dorothea Rockburne, Ed Ruscha, Robert Ryman, David Salle, Carolee Schneemann, Richard Serra, Jack Smith, Patti Smith, Robert Smithson, Holly Solomon, Naomi Spector, Nancy Spero, Pat Steir, Frank Stella, Alan Suicide (Vega), David Tremlett, Richard Tuttle, Andy Warhol, William Wegman, Lawrence Weiner, Hannah Wilke, Robert Wilson, Yuri, and Irene von Zahn. |

| Title: Crimeways |
| By (author): Matthew Licht |
| ISBN10-13: 1551521733 : 9781551521732 |
| Another Emerging Artists title; this is the third book in the Ways series- anthologies of anonymously written stories which, put together, are 'novels' that challenge traditional notions of narrative genres- in this case, the detective novel. Crimeways is set in a New York under siege by an underground band of criminals threatening to destroy a landmark in the name of art. The attempts to save the city from these artistic fascists and their bad taste form the backbone of this book. Contributors include novelist Geoff Nicholson, ex gay porn writer Jack Pretzer, architects Roger Duffy and Dana Bauer, Honcho editor Gordon Wallace and photographer Nick Briggs. |

| Title: Dark Prospects |
| By (author): Charles Beronio |
| ISBN10-13: 0894390287 : 9780894390289 |
| Dark Prospects takes as its source material issues of People, Time, Newsweek, U. S News and World Report. Charles Beronio retains the form of the magazine, but dismantles the medium's visual language by blacking out all references to textual and visual references to corporate branding, time and location, as well as the faces of the magazines' featured stars and advertising props. What's left is a stuttering, unforgiving sequence of detonated images and textual fragments; a skewed visual narrative of modern life. |

| Title: Depreciating Assets |
| By (author): Jessica Vaughn |
| ISBN10-13: 0894390996 : 9780894390999 |
| Depreciating Assets is a new artistsâ book by Jessica Vaughn investigating labor, diversity politics, and the material environment of the American workplace. With a new lens to the artistâ s multidisciplinary practice, the project examines how affirmative action and other office equity measures are intersected by corporate infrastructure and, specifically, the physical layout of office space. Across four interwoven sections and related appendices, Vaughn assembles her photographs and critical writings alongside xeroxed images, diversity training video stills, and manipulated open source documents of the US Government. The project considers and distills the symptoms of late 20th and 21st century work culture produced by open office plans and modular architectureâ s promise of malleability, compliance, and universality â provisions that bid for increased efficiency and productivity at the expense of visibility for Black workers and workers of color. Vaughn looks at how minimalist design gestures of the modern office (as envisioned by Rem Koolhaasâ formative essay â Typical Plan,â and Herman Millerâ s Ethospace brochures) cannot exist outside the conditions of race, class and labor. The project also includes an interview between Vaughn and curator Magdalyn Asimakis, in which the two discuss the structural failings of arts and cultural institutions to practice equitable inclusion of artists of color, or to develop a language and praxis in support of diverse programming that extends beyond compliance, optics, and concerns of the market. Vaughn draws connections between the operations of these institutions to that of the corporate environment, and discusses the ways in which she manipulates their commonalities through the material of her work. In its design, Depreciating Assets intentionally replicates the style, materials, and colors outlined by the US Government Publishing Officeâ standards set to ensure design efficiency and the economical production of their internal documents. The book draws from the familiar copyshop palette of Venetian blue, tan pink, salmon, green and brown, and uses varied paper stocks in accordance with Paper Standard specifications. In doing so the project takes on and examines the homogeneity imposed by so-called â corporate efficiency measures,â and the fundamental tension between diversity initiatives and one-size-fits-all approaches to office resources. The publication concludes with an afterword by the author contextualizing the projectâ s themes within the contemporary reality of global pandemic, economic precarity, and protests against racist state violence. Here Vaughn explores how in the absence of an adequate governmental response to structural problems, workplaces implement ad-hoc solutions (such as plexi-dividers) that still leave workers vulnerable and at risk â most acutely, Black workers who are often underinsured. |

| Title: Hunters Follow Harpy Shadows |
| By (author): Rin Kim |
| ISBN10-13: 0894391003 : 9780894391002 |
| Hunters Follow Harpy Shadows is an experimental work featuring a series of poetic writings that explore fantasy narratives of rewritten mythologies. Mixing re-imagined trans Korean folklore, queered Biblical storytelling and pirate lore, the publication is an amalgamation of writing delivered from the lips of the artist as a genderfluid seraphim that has left heaven to tell mortals of the other worlds. |

| Title: Jaguar Group |
| By (author): Isadora Reisner |
| ISBN10-13: 089439097X : 9780894390975 |
| Over the course of Jaguar Group â s extended text, Reisner draws on observational writing and archival research to offer an account of a wildlife diorama at the American Museum of Natural Historyâ s Hall of North American Mammals. Through a consideration of the suspended sceneâ one that depicts two taxidermied jaguars gazing across a rugged desert vista at sunsetâ the project contends with the strong allure that Reisner feels and the contradictions tied up in complicated American histories of Westward Expansion, early 20th century conservationism, and the construction of national mythology. Jaguar Group considers how systems of display blur the line between reality and simulationâ and life and deathâ to present a â naturalâ ideal. The project extends a critical lens on historical approaches of collecting institutions through their amassing of biological specimens, funding of big game expeditions, and the depiction of lands that have been abstracted from narratives of indigenous stewardship. The work is situated within the broader cultural context of natural history museums as sites of contemporary protest and inquiry amidst more urgent calls for decolonizing museums and the repatriation of cultural artifacts. Ultimately, Jaguar Group asks how we can both critique and love such an idiosyncratic, confusing, but beautiful monument. Jaguar Group incorporates excerpts from historical letters from James Perry Wilson, the talented muralist who created the backdrop to the Jaguar Group diorama in the early 1940s. His affectionate letters with Thano, a young soldier on furlough, chronicle his work in the Museum and share insight into his painterly technique â his approach to concealing his art and transporting the viewer through attention to tonality, color theory and forced perspectiveâ and the distortion of reality which is necessary for the illusion of the diorama to function. The bookâ s color scheme is informed by Wilsonâ s oil painted murals, and a clear PVC cover references the smudged fingerprinted glass of the Museumâ s diorama.

| Title: Proposals for Printed Matter |
| By (author): Liverside |
| ISBN10-13: 0894390740 : 9780894390746 |
| MÃ¥rten Lange intermittently lived in London for 4 years. Just before he left, he started photographing the birds surrounding him. In cities like London, feral pigeons are predominant. Their round eyes, which Patrick SÃ"skind compared to a camera in his book, The Pigeon, are mechanically pointed at you. With sufficient technology, they could become inescapable surveillance tools, evoking the feeling of the pet owl possessed by Eldon Tyrell in the dystopian movie Blade Runner. _x000D__x000D_Ironically, birds are presumed free by essence. Due to their ability to fly, they supposedly know neither limits nor boundaries. Yet, while a wing stroke could carry them anywhere, pigeons seem embedded in cities: glued to power lines or building balconies. Poles apart from a migrating bird; they are trapped in their concrete ecosystem. They seem to have always been here, en masse, like feathered sentinels to something sacred that only they perceive. Often immobile, they guard the city like the colossus that once guarded Rhodes. _x000D__x000D_Purveying a bucolic sullenness, their apparent sadness echoes the drabness associated with urban landscapes. Pigeons often appear beat up, dirty, starving and crippled. Against all odds, they stay, feeding on what humans leave behind. Their wildness is urban, and in their quest for survival, they share the daily struggles of the citiesâ inhabitants. Similarly, pigeons passed their test of fire and claimed their territory, which Lange feels that this is what truly defines them as a citizen. _x000D_Shot at close range in black and white, Langeâ s portraits of pigeons are almost clinical. Itâ s as if these birds had to renew their passports and needed a photo. However, like a true citizen, they probably will never use it. |
