[COMPLETE WITH CD]
Elein Fleiss, Olivier Zahm, Purple
As described by Caroline Schneider in Artforum Magazine's May 2000 issue: "Under the aegis of the Purple Institute, 'a record label for the field of contemporary creation' - leave it to the French! - Elein Fleiss and Olivier Zahm apply the same fashion-fiction-sex formula that won attention for their Paris-based magazine Purple to an exhibition of works by some fifty artists and musicians exploring the subject of dreams. A series of pavilions will house creations by participants as diverse as Gerhard Richter, Sandra Cinto, and Alex Bag, accompanied by a sound track that boasts contributions from Sonic Youth, Tom Verlaine, and Jim O'Rourke... A CD accompanies the 400-page illustrated catalogue, wholly unencumbered by text."
This exhibition catalogue for a show held at the Centre national d'art et de culture Georges Pompidou, Paris, May 24 - July 24, 2002, is a very chunky book designed by graphic demi-Gods Experimental Jetset. Exhibition included works by Rita Ackermann, Comme des Garçons, Richard Prince, Andrea Zittel and many others. Audio CD with music by Bothwick / Fellows / Holland, David Grubbs, Sonic Youth, Paradise Garage, Ginny Robbins, The Sea and Cake, Jeff Rian / Palix, Joe Hisaishi, Jutta Koether, Jim O'Rourke, Oval, Tom Verlaine, and Tortoise.

[Paperback Edition]
Gertrude Stein
"'How to Write' is the 'difficult' Stein at her best -- and often most difficult pieces are the most delightful. Stein was not difficult for her own sake. Her work was as it was because her intentions could not be realized in normal prose. She was no hermetic. But in her best-known self-explanations - Narration, Composition as Explanation, An Elucidation, An Acquaintance with Description and Lectures in America - she gives in the temptation, to work within the confines of 'straight,' traditional prose, and to repudiate her own most characteristic style..." -- from book's back cover.

Michael Heizer, Richard Koshalek, Kerry Brougher, Mark C. Taylor
"Created with bulldozer and dynamite in 1969 in the vast expanse of the Nevada desert, Michael Heizer's Double Negative was one of the first and remains among the most influential of the monumental 'earthworks' sculptures in and of the land. Double Negative, a 1,500-foot incision on the edge of a mesa 80 miles form Las Vegas still exists: its site is now officially part of the collection of The Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles. The experience of the magnificent, expansive gesture is captured in this book with 25 oversized plates that document the sculpture's creation and impart a sense off its scale." -- from book's end flap text.

Allan Kaprow
Originally published as a vinyl LP by Mass Art and distributed by Something Else Press, "How to Make a Happening" is a spoken word recording in mono of Allan Kaprow describing, in detail, how to make a happening. Engrossing and fascinating. " Simple in construction, yet profound in context, "How to Make a Happening" is Allan Kaprow delivering 11 rules on how, and how not, to make a Happening, a movement begun by Kaprow in the late fifties that is known for its unpredictability, open scores, and constantly-evolving form. Newly remastered from the original vinyl pressing, "How to Make a Happening" has been republished by Primary Information in cooperation with the Estate of Allan Kaprow and The Getty Research Institute. This edition's packaging faithfully reproduces the cover art, with essay on back cover, and a screenprinted cover text. Reference: “Something Else Press : An Annotated Bibliography by Peter Frank,” A Documentext Publication, McPherson & Company, 1983, pp. 66, 78.

Brian O'Doherty
"Studio and Cube is author Brian O'Doherty's long-awaited follow-up to his seminal 1976 essays for Artforum, republished in 1999 as 'Inside the White Cube: The Ideology of the Gallery Space.' That critically acclaimed volume dissected the abstract, white space of the art gallery, calling it "the archetypal image of twentieth century art." In Studio and Cube he expands his interpretation to include the artist's studio, tracking the relationship between the artwork and the artist from Vermeer through late modernism. O'Doherty reflects on the differing work spaces of Courbet, Matisse, Rothko, Bacon, Warhol, and many others. This is essential reading for anyone interested in the history and issues of art and the environment in which it is produced. Studio and Cube is the first in the series of FORuM Project Publications produced by the Temple Hoyne Buell Center for the Study of American Architecture, at Columbia University. Studio and Cube -- When does an artist's creation become art, and where? Does it occur in the solitary confines of an artist's studio or does it require the context of an art gallery's white cube? What is the relationship between these two culturally charged spaces? How does the site of art's presentation shape the meaning and determine even the very possibility of its existence?" -- publisher's statement. Designed by Dexter Sinister. Contains discussion of Lucas Samaras' studio-bedroom; Vito Acconci's "Seedbed"; Courbet's studio; Delacriox; Molly Nesbitt's studio tour; Warhol; Rauschenberg; Francis Bacon; Rothko; Duchamp; Caspar David Friedrich; Hopper; Mondrian; Brancusi; and The anti-white-cube.
