Books and Ideas After Seth Siegelaub


Book Description

Seth Siegelaub, (b. 19412013, New York) curator, gallery owner and author is best known for his promotion of conceptual art in New York during the 1960s and 70s. Books and Ideas after Seth Siegelaub looks at the books produced by Siegelaub in the 60s and their renewed influence on artists and their publications today. Pichler, curator of the exhibition at the Center for Book Arts NY (2013), offers this catalog as a window into an ongoing conceptual discourse with Siegelaubs books as the platform. Extensive illustrations and bibliographic details are featured including Siegelaubs Xerox Book (1968), which was printed in offset but has since been xeroxed and openly reproduced by numerous artists and publishers. His publications, often taken as starting points for new projects, are substantial artworks in their own right. Also included: Siegelaubs work with the Art Workers Coalition, a draft of The Artists Reserved Rights Transfer and Sale Agreement on contemporary art and activism, and a last interview with Siegelaub by Pichler.

Angel in a Book Shop


Book Description

In a snowy Christmas London, a grieving Josh meets Michael and falls head over heels in love. The antique book store, Chapter One, is nestled in a quiet square a few steps from London's St Pauls Cathedral. Since Josh's dad died, it has been boarded-up, with whitewashed windows, no new stock, and shelves empty of everything except sad memories. The place is a reminder of loss, and despite Josh being weighed down by grief, it falls on him to sell the store for his mom. Michael is the owner of Arts Desire, the store right next to Josh. With his rainbow pride mugs and positive outlook, he is sunshine and happiness, and the complete opposite of what Josh thinks he needs in his life. Michael says everyone deserves their own Christmas miracle sometimes. All Josh has to do is believe him, and the two men could have their own happy ever after.




The Book Shop


Book Description

The sign over the door reads “Book Shop Proprietor T. Dearing” in large gold letters. For those who can read, this is a place of insight, knowledge, and power. For all others going about their daily business, this shop holds mysteries and evil ideas best avoided at all costs. The shop on London Bridge Tam inherited from his father, Giles, who received the land on which the bookshop now stands, from Henry V, for honorable service during the battle of Agincourt. Tam is a content man who enjoys living in the company of the books so dear to his heart. One day an unexplained package arrives from France containing a copy of “The Cambria Homily”, written by Augustinian Monks in the early eighth century on the island of Skellig Michael off the Irish coast. Cautiously he opens the Illumination and finds a message personally addressed to him, “May You Find Honor Lost.” Tam sets out to uncover the mystery of who sent the book and what is meant by honor lost. Tam travels with a group of Franciscan Monks and Pilgrims for it is unwise to travel alone for fear of being robbed and killed by bandits who prowl the road to Calais. On his quest for truth he learns about unconditional love in the face of abject poverty and cruelty beyond.
