Catch up: Print Center

Besides writing full time, I'm also applying to MIT. So forgive me if you can for getting this to you late.




Andrew Kozlowski's Dear Tree Hugger... Images of barriers and destruction.


Isaac Tin Wei Lin's installation. Full review here.


Downstairs was a history of letterpress show. This is Las Obras de Jose Guadalupe Posada. Nice! Owned by U Penn.


Heidi Neilson's Atlas of Punctuation. Printed at WSW. It's a wonderfully simple idea. Eliminate everything from The Little Prince but the punctuation.

E/Ab

The Editions/Artists' Book fair is becoming the place to go to see great young print shops. I unfortunately didn't take as many photos as I should have.

Landfall Press and Jiha Moon, Procession- You are on your Way


LES printshop and William Powhida, Ars Magica

IFPDA

Yah, I've been away. Miami, Chicago, NY, NJ, Philly. I've not stopped finding, just writing them up. I've been adjusting to publishing over at Daily Serving on top of it. I did review the Print Center over at DS, so don't sleep.

Here's my picks from the IFPDA fair in NY.


This is printed off pin heads. Good ol'Tara Donovan printed by Pace.


Christiane Baumgartner in her signature style.


1500's Netherlandish School Memento Mori Engraving. Thought to be a unique surviving image.


Guillermo Kuitca 1997 lithographs.


Ed Ruscha Motor City 2009, seven itaglio images. I think I could find space for those if I had the $12K to buy them.


Grayson Perry, Map of Nowhere (blue), 2008 from Paragon Press.
