Old Buddies Justin, Chuck and Doug are leading a veggie powered assault

I have had the pleasure of being included in a sweet new startup journal out of Amsterdam called Heartbreaker Magazine. There has been a lot of epic buzz lately about the new media abilities for alternative press, and Heartbreaker, which is currently powered by Issuu, is one of those sources. The New York Times recently did a piece on Mag Cloud, which is subsidized heavily by HP, you know those guys who make ink and paper delivery hardware (throwaway printers).

This Saturday, the musty bowels of Unnameable Books gets a big fat injection of life when this group of artists set up shop. I have made a sort of nasty sculpture on a rotating doggy style platform, so I hope you all can come out and sneeze at some dust. Big Hint: Executive Branch Assassination Squad.

It’s the thick part of March, and Melanie Flood has decided to give everyone a last boost out of Winter with a one night, tightly curated fire sale. People are bringing their drawings, prints, magazines, photographs, books and more to her salon, and having a veritable free for all…Make sure if you come, bring only clear liquids or chemicals, she is not interested in cleaning up stains of darkness. Let’s have some Clear Coke Classic and get some deals!

I will be having a bunch of the books from A Library of Missed Ventures and Failed Systems - From Here to Finite Points in the Near Distance, as well as two 8×10 framed photographs for super, dirt cheap. ($100 each)

Well there is no bad excuse for getting inside the belly of a decaying beast such as a 2009 Art Fair of any kind, so the fine gentleman at Humble have snaked a sweet special party on the opening night of Volta. Everyone should make a big ole RSVP so we can crack the code and have some fun at the expense of the Sinking Ships that are the fairs. Plus the book is really a rad object, and it going to be amazing if even a fraction of the people involved can come out and get physical together.

CURATED BY ALANA CELII, JON FEINSTEIN & GRANT WILLING
INTRODUCTION BY RUBEN NATAL–SAN MIGUEL

The Collector’s Guide is an invite only, unique 180–page source book distributed to collectors, art dealers, gallery directors, photo editors, museum professionals, and independent curators. Published biennially, The Collector’s Guide aims to further Humble’s mission by bridging the gap between ambitious early-career photographers and often-unapproachable photography professionals and art institutions.

Ideally, the 163 photographers featured in this publication will move on to find their work in private collections, represented by reputable galleries and included in group exhibitions. The Collector’s Guide will also serve as a resource for photo editors, helping to attract assignments to featured photographers.

The Collector’s Guide is not a traditional consumer-based art photography book. Instead, this source book is a complimentary guide for collectors and photography industry professionals.

I feel really fortunate to have the brain trust of Amani & Jon, and dear friends Grant & Alana work really hard on putting together this book of young guns, and I just have to pinch myself with the thought of being put in the same context as so many of these amazing photographers. It seems really nice that a lot of this new generation is getting put into print form, I can’t wait for the tangibility of paper from these photo 2.0 cats.

DECEMBER 11 - JANUARY 4, 2009
Opening Reception DECEMBER 11, 2008 7-9PM
The Hampshire House
150 Central Park South, #804
New York, NEW YORK (map)

A Public/Private Salon of Cosmic Photograph Exploration. Sophie has been busting it really hard to make this special space come alive with photographs of a certain elevation. I hope that floating above the ground level of Central Park in that chilled December night will dial everyone in to our eternal atmospheric, and more specifically Tropospheric connections. I am debuting a photograph of the yet to be completed Freedom Tower which is being built on the site of the World Trade Center Towers. This picture is jamming all about the density of space trash and mutability of architecture at the turning of this century. One day satellites, and other man-made detritus might very well have to be ejected into deep space like this image hypothesizes.

SEE YOU THERE!!!
