Book Description
Artist Alexis Ross along with Tattooist Bert Krak created a special installation as part of the massive Beyond The Streets exhibition. Alexis Ross designed and art directed the installation, described on-site as follows: "Magic Touch is the name of this artistic expression celebrating the creative follies of Canarsie homeowners from the late 20th century - a sort of shade-tree tattoo parlor that might exist on your cousin Carmine's back porch from a time when Cadillac was king and you picked your tattoo design off the wall." Krak's real world business, Smith Street Tattoo Parlour supplied the magnetism, world-wide notoriety and talented tattooists. They made a splash on-site as they mugged with fans and tattooed real life flesh and blood right from "flash" on the wall. Known as a standard bearer of neo-classical tattoo, Bert Krak draws enthusiasts of the style from near and far, and Magic Touch provides a cross section of the scene. This book documents hundreds of tattoos inscribed on site, 50 pages of tattoo "flash" art and atmospheric shots from the installation itself. Includes 24 page mini booklet.

Book Description
Photographer and documentarian Ian Reid was born and raised in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. In 2018 he set out to photograph 23 public housing developments in Brooklyn from above. His goal was to preserve the architecture and to present the structures without any preconceived notions of what goes on within. The images are framed by the streets they are defined by, often showing how they look with the changing seasons. Gentrification and development have changed the surroundings of the public housing, but the buildings and its residents for the most part stay the same. Complex Geometry respects the true residents of Brooklyn and pays homage to where Reid grew up and still spends a great deal of his time.

It’s intended to bridge the gap in the traditional college curriculum between “book smarts” and all the real-world, practical information and life skills that students need to succeed after graduation. Street Smarts, Beyond the Diploma is the result of three years of interviews with hundreds of successful people from all walks of life. This book summarizes 125 lessons that were identified over and over as to what students need to understand and master. Critics have raved about the book commenting on its visual format, “less is more” delivery, and entertainment value.
