This newly published text creates a dictionary of terms with which to understand the ways and means new forms of power have been accumulated through Neural Capitalism. Archive Books will also present, for the first time in the United States, Neidich’s multicolored neon wall installation/mind map entitled The Statisticon Neon. BATT Coop &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; BATT Coop is a Paris-based collective dedicated to collecting, producing, and cataloging artists’ books, which mostly circulate in small circuits without any thematic or genre restrictions. From zine-making to photography, and from illustration to visual, technical, or intellectual experimentation, BATT Coop champions all artistic practices related to print, beyond mere books. BATT Coop was created out of&nbsp; the lack of spaces able to answer the expectations of the makers, publishers, lovers, or collectors of these kinds of publications. BATT Coop brings a contemporary approach to printmaking, working from both the private archives collected by Galerie P38 and with the production power of the Paris Print Club (a printing studio using traditional printing methods).The presentation will include a full spectrum of over 2,000 publications and posters alongside a selection of out of print publications curated by Librairie Morins. Gagosian Gallery&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Gagosian Gallery presents a new double album, published by The Vinyl Factory, of Taryn Simon’s 2016 performance An Occupation of Loss. In this work, professional mourners simultaneously broadcasted their lamentations, many of which date back to pre-Islamic and pre-Christian times. Their sonic mournings were performed in recitations that include Northern Albanian laments, which seek to excavate “uncried words”; Wayuu laments, which safeguard the soul’s passage to the Milky Way; Greek Epirotic laments, which bind the story of a life with its afterlife; and Yazidi laments, which map a topography of displacement and exile. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The accompanying 80-page book presents the laments, their English translations, and Simon’s portraits of the performers. A section documenting the performers’ visa application processes foregrounds the underlying structures of global exchange, the movement of bodies across borders, and the hierarchies of art and culture. The installation includes listening stations where visitors can hear the mourners' laments. An Occupation of Loss was co-commissioned by Artangel and Park Avenue Armory. Little Big Man Books&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Little Big Man Books presents Coming of Age, a curated group exhibition by Virgil Abloh. The exhibition centers on male youth, offering a diverse and complex look at boyhood that traverses class, race, social economics, subcultures, isolation, and camaraderie. The exhibition will include an international lineup of established and emerging talent, with Nobuyoshi Araki, Nick Waplington, Ed Templeton, Bafic, Jim Goldberg, and Mohamed Bourouissa, among others. Coming of Age offers no answers or solutions, but does wake the longing for a simpler, more naive and optimistic time. Lisson Gallery &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Lisson Gallery is pleased to present THE ANNOTATED READER, a publication-as-exhibition and exhibition-as-publication, featuring 281 responses and remarks on a chosen piece of writing. Ryan Gander and Jonathan P. Watts invite a range of contemporary artists, designers, writers, institutional founders, and musicians to answer the question: “Is there one piece of writing that you would want with you for company in the small hours?”&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The compiled texts—with personal annotations and notes by contributors including Marina Abramović, Art &amp; Language, Ragnar Kjartansson, Sarah Lucas, and Hans Ulrich Obrist—are newly printed as a book and exhibited as stacks of loose sheets hanging from the walls, so that visitors are able to compile their own ANNOTATED READER. In addition, a vending machine distributes USBs containing the entire PDF of submissions. Three Star Books&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Three Star Books will exhibit four new, exciting projects by artists Frank Benson, Cheryl Donegan with Kenneth Goldsmith, Cyprien Gaillard, and Raffaella della Olga.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Cyprien Gaillard will present NIGHTLIFE, an outstanding corpus of over 580 night photographs from 2011 to 2019, edited and designed by the artist. Frank Benson will introduce CATALOG 1, a unique way to apprehend the artist’s precise elaboration of four sculptures, including Juliana (2014) and Castaway (2016). CATALOG 1 also includes three-dimensional images to be seen with anaglyph glasses. Cheryl Donegan partners with poet Kenneth Goldsmith for PEELS, an extraordinary volume that combines Donegan’s colorful visual work with Goldsmith’s distinct writing style. Lastly, Raffaella Della Olga will present her unique books that are entirely crafted with modified typewriters. ‘TILL THE LAST GASP’, A Graphzine History 1975-2005 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; ‘TILL THE LAST GASP’, A Graphzine History 1975-2005,&nbsp;showcases a largely undocumented movement of independent artists’ books and fanzine publications called Graphzines, which emerged in France beginning in 1975. The Graphzine movement rose from the ashes of 1960's underground free press and comix, revitalized by the punk generation. Its artists-pioneers developed and collected radical forms of drawing, obsessing over the reproduction and collection of provocative images. There was a strong link with the American underground art scene since Graphzine’s inception, with collaborative publishing projects being produced from both sides of the Atlantic. The exhibition will present a collection of over 300 zines, books, and silkscreen posters from 1975-2005, closing with counterparts from Providence's Fort Thunder scene. Three generations of international artists will be exhibited together for the first time. Graphzine is curated by Manuel Morin / Galerie P38, and presented by BATT, a non-profit organization engaged in preserving this quintessential movement’s complete archives. Torpedo Press&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Torpedo Press presents These Are Situationist Times!—a digitization and publication project devoted to The Situationist Times (1962–67), a magazine edited and published by the Dutch artist Jacqueline de Jong. Throughout its six remarkably diverse issues, The Situationist Times challenged the notion of what it means to be a situationist, as well as traditional understandings of how culture is created, formatted, and shared. Developed by Ellef Prestsæter and Torpedo, These Are Situationist Times! brings together an international group of artists, activists, and scholars to investigate the magazine’s history and probe its contemporary relevance.

COURTYARD PROJECTS Cybernetics Library&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The Cybernetics Library is an art and research collective built around physical and digital library collections. Through its continually evolving collection and technological components, the library aims to generate feedback between publications, digital information, physical installations, and the readers themselves. We consider how dynamics of bias and oppression are perpetuated through technological systems, and develop public programs to ask how we might create possibilities to challenge and affect those systems.

CL = The Classroom, located on the 2nd floor CLT = The Classroom in the Basement Theater CLT 1:00—2:00 pm&nbsp; second shelf: shelf talk #8&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; second shelf, initiated in 2018 by artist Heide Hinrichs, is a collaborative book acquisition project and multi-institutional, international effort to increase library holdings of publications by nonbinary, female, and queer artists and artists of color. This shelf talk is a gesture of care and attention—one in a series of events that highlight these new collections and contextualize the project’s ambitions. second shelf advisors are convening in person for the first time. We invite the public to join our conversation about publishing, libraries, and artistic and institutional identities that will inform future publications. A website that functions as an inventory is at second-shelf.org. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Discussants: second shelf advisors Elizabeth Haines (historian, University of Bristol, UK), Heide Hinrichs (Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Antwerp), Marisa Sánchez (art historian/curator/sessional faculty, University of British Columbia, Vancouver), and Jo-ey Tang (Director of Exhibitions, Beeler Gallery at Columbus College of Art &amp; Design); with Leslie Jankowski (Director of Library Services, CCAD Packard Library), and Matthew Offenbacher (artist and publisher, Seattle).&nbsp;︎ CL1:00—2:00 pm THE ANNOTATED READER, with Ryan Gander, Ossian Ward, and others &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Imagine you’ve missed the last train. Is there one piece of writing that you would want with you for company in the small hours? Perhaps this text transformed your thinking. It might be a mantra continually returned to. Perhaps it is a text you felt should be read by younger generations or that you wish you’d encountered as a student.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; In 2018, artist Ryan Gander and critic and writer Jonathan P. Watts invited a range of creatives, artists, academics, writers, musicians, and designers to suggest then annotate a piece of personally meaningful writing. The annotations add a further layer to the texts, demonstrating and suggesting ways of reading, displaying thought, and complicating the relationship between image and text, reading and looking. Artist Ryan Gander will discuss the genesis of this book-as-exhibition or exhibition-as-book with Lisson Gallery’s Ossian Ward and with other guest contributors to THE ANNOTATED READER. Presented by Lisson Gallery.&nbsp;︎ CL 2:00—3:00 pm Aesthetic Injustice, with Taylor Doran and Kandis Williams&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Kandis Williams and Taylor Doran of CASSANDRA Press will host an informal historical overviews and discussions of recent CASSANDRA readers (2018: School-to-Prison Pipeline, 2019: Reparations). The conversation will cover a range of topics centered on the relationship between aesthetic expression and ethical discourses. Presented by CASSANDRA Press.&nbsp;︎ CLT2:00—3:30 pm Secretos-Secrets, by Iñaki Bonillas, with David Kurnick and Mónica de la Torre&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Secrets was a site-specific project and exhibition by Iñaki Bonillas for the Casa Luis Barragán, Mexico City in 2016. Following years of research, Bonillas intervened into the negative spaces of Barragan's house, especially those which often remained hidden to a visitor’s view, such as closets, cupboards and drawers. These spaces served Barragán’s purpose of hiding daily life: the accumulation of objects, papers, useless things—in a word, disorder, to benefit the serene harmony of his architectural poetics. Bonillas’ project not only reflected upon this functional characteristic, but also explored the need to hide certain feelings, thoughts, and memories. The artists’ book Secretos-Secrets is a continuation of this project, and refers to Marcel Duchamp’s publication Some French Moderns Says McBride (1922). It includes texts by Luis Felipe Fabre, Álvaro Enrigue, Mónica de la Torre, Tom McDonough, Manuel Cirauqui and Daniel Aguilar Ruvalcaba. Launching at the fair, signed and numbered copies will be presented by the artist, in conversation with poet and art critic Mónica de la Torre, and professor and translator David Kurnick. Presented by kurimanzutto libros.&nbsp;︎ CL 3:00–4:00 pmJoseph Jarman’s Black Case, with Thulani Davis and Brent Hayes Edwards &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Thulani Davis and Brent Hayes Edwards will lead a discussion about Blank Forms Editions’ republication of Joseph Jarman’s Black Case. Joseph Jarman (1937–2019) was a saxophonist and multi-instrumentalist best known as a founding member of trailblazing avant-garde jazz group Art Ensemble of Chicago. In 1977, Art Ensemble of Chicago Publishing Co. published Jarman’s Black Case Volume I and II: Return From Exile: a collection of writing including Jarman’s fiery free verse, a manifesto for “GREAT BLACK MUSIC,” notated songs, concert program notes, Jarman’s photos, and impressions of a play by Muhal Richard Abrams. While some of the poems contained within Black Case have already been immortalized via performances on classic records by Jarman and Art Ensemble of Chicago, its republication in print form breathes new life into a forgotten document of the Black Arts Movement. Presented by Blank Forms.&nbsp;︎ CLT 3:30—5:00 pm Publishing Manifestos: An International Anthology from Artists and Writers, with Michalis Pichler, Chiara Figarone, Gloria Glitzer, Paul Soulellis, and Temporary Services&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Independent publishing, art publishing, publishing as artistic practice, publishing counterculture, and the zine, DIY, and POD scenes have proliferated over the last two decades. So too have art book fairs, an increasingly important venue—or even medium—for art(work). Contributors to this anthology will have a conversation around potential issues such as: (artists’) books and publications as alternative mise-en-scene, appropriation, conceptual writing and reading, social context, publishing, and public space, (not-)corrupted economies, POD, internet and (post-)digital publishing, and poetics of the everyday. ︎ CL4:00—5:00 pm The Halifax Conference, with Craig Leonard &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; In conjunction with the release of his new book The Halifax Conference (New Documents, 2019), artist Craig Leonard will present archival material from the 1970 conference organized by Seth Siegelaub at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design. The Conference was conceived as a means of bringing about a “meeting of artists…[from] diverse art making experiences and art positions…in as general a situation as possible.” Infamously, the Conference was held in the college’s boardroom, while students and other interested parties watched the proceedings on a video monitor in a separate space. Attendees at the Conference included Carl Andre, Joseph Beuys, Ronald Bladen, Daniel Buren, Gene Davis, Jan Dibbets, Al Held, Mario Merz, Robert Morris, Robert Murray, N.E.Thing Co. (Iain and Ingrid Baxter), Richard Serra, Richard Smith, Robert Smithson, Michael Snow, and Lawrence Weiner. Presented by New Documents.&nbsp;︎ CL5:00—6:00 pm Published by Lugemik: Printed Matter from 2010–2019, with Indrek Sirkel, Anu Vahtra, Mia Kang, and Lieven Lahaye&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Lugemik is one of the few independent publishing initiatives based in Estonia, founded in 2010 by graphic designer Indrek Sirkel and artist Anu Vahtra and joined by graphic designer Ott Kagovere in 2018. In collaboration with different artists, designers, and theorists, Lugemik has published 83 titles to date. Sirkel and Vahtra will present a book that accompanied a recent exhibition at the Estonian Museum of Applied Art and Design, “Published by Lugemik: Printed matter from 2010–2019,” about their publishing practice over the last 10 years. The exhibition included a selection of books and artwork published by Lugemik, providing an overview of how various two- and three-dimensional works, text-based works, and performances have been translated into book format. The presentation will include readings by two contributors of the publication: researcher and PhD student in Art History at Yale University, Mia Kang, and artist, librarian, and publisher Lieven Lahaye. Presented by Lugemik.&nbsp;︎ CLT 5:30–7:00 pm Our Interference Times, by Michael Stipe, with Douglas Coupland&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Multifaceted artist Michael Stipe will discuss his new book Our Interference Times, an investigation of how analog imagery is crashing on the shores of our digital future. For Stipe, the signature mark of this phenomenon is the moiré pattern. Culled from Stipe’s vast archive of personal images, the book is a contemplation on the tug-of-war between pixels and halftone, between past memory and new memory and their vagaries of representation. Presented by Damiani Editore.&nbsp;︎ CL6:00—7:00 pm&nbsp; Museum of Capitalism—Expanded 2nd Edition, with FICTILIS, Ben Davis, and Lester K. Spence &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The Museum of Capitalism, now in its third iteration, is a speculative institution that treats capitalism as a historical phenomenon. The Museum views the present and recent past from the implied perspective of a future society in which our economic and political system is memorialized, then subjected to a museological gaze. FICTILIS will discuss the expanded 2nd edition of the book in conversation with Ben Davis and Ingrid Burrington, and artists Maia Chao and Marisa Morán Jahn. Presented by Inventory Press.&nbsp;︎ https://nyabf2019.printedmatterartbookfairs.org/The-Stage Fri, 26 Apr 2019 16:28:51 +0000 Printed Matter’s New York Art Book Fair 2019 https://nyabf2019.printedmatterartbookfairs.org/The-Stage THE STAGE The evening will feature special live performances presented by Printed Matter with Noah Klein. 2:00 pmBrian Chase 3:30 pmSkjell 4:00 pmAbandon 4:30 pmDJ's Jenn + Liz Pelly 6:00 pmNina BC https://nyabf2019.printedmatterartbookfairs.org/Courtyard-Workshops-1 Wed, 21 Aug 2019 19:01:45 +0000 Printed Matter’s New York Art Book Fair 2019 https://nyabf2019.printedmatterartbookfairs.org/Courtyard-Workshops-1 COURTYARD WORKSHOPSThe Courtyard will include a series of artist-led workshops by Endless Editions, as well as contributions from The Cybernetics Library, The Free Black Women’s Library, and a NYPL Picture Collection Outpost.
