Eline Mugaas and Elise Storsveen
Album



Published by: Primary Information

21 x 29.5 cm Softcover Colour Offset 2014

£20.00

This publication collects the first ten issues of Album magazine, created by artists Eline Mugaas, chiefly a photographer, and Elise Storsveen, who works primarily in painting, collage and textile. Each issue of the magazine grapples with a different theme: heterosexuality, commodities and commodification, the "lonely man," femininity, architecture, the desire for children, outer space, the creative female and nature. Each theme is explored entirely through found images or full pages taken from a variety of sources from the 1960s to the 1970s, which range from Scandinavian advertisements, etiquette manuals, cookbooks and magazines to craft books and sex-education guides. Each thematic issue provides a deftly arranged panoply of clever readings, made clear only through the artists' juxtaposition of images. Album engages in a sophisticated metanarrative on the human body, sexuality and the social lives of images. Copublished with Teknisk Industri AS.

Charlie Rubin
Strange Paradise



Published by: Conveyor Editions

19 x 24.5 cm Softcover Colour Offset 2014

£24.00

Strange Paradise ambles between the peculiar and the familiar, as Charlie Rubin works intuitively to create unexpected combinations with idiosyncratic logic. Taking perception as his waypoint, Rubin presents a kaleidoscopic body of work that explores the convergence of the actual and the artificial. While some photographs are manipulated, many are left unchanged, serving to pace and balance the work, and to further question what is real and what is altered.

‘Unlike “real relationships”, “virtual relationships” are easy to enter and to exit. They look smart and clean, feel easy to use, when compared with the heavy, slow-moving, messy real stuff,’ argued 88-year-old sociologist Zygmunt Bauman. Sex is often a vital part of romantic relationships. But what happens to sex in a world where everything is becoming digitized? And in a world where all of social life is measured against the ability to consume? “The Future of Sex” is a journey into the uncanny and hyper real world that increasingly shapes our experience of sex. For Postmodern thinkers like Jean Baudrillard and Umberto Eco our society is now characterized by prefabricated images and experiences. With the advent of new real time media, the hyper real world has worked its way into our bedrooms. At the same time, “The Future of Sex” investigates what Bauman calls ‘liquid identities’, which nowadays extends to social media and sex. Welcome to “The Future of Sex” – a world in which sexuality is fluid and the hyper real world caters for it! “The Future of Sex” introduces two guest editors, Robert Henry Rubin the editor of cult magazine NIGHT, and the infamous club kid Michael Alig, plus a sassy foreword by Brett Anderson from Suede. Baron Magazine Issue 3 is our biggest issue yet and we all know bigger is better. Starring the worlds finest perverts: Prince Stanislas Klossowski de Rola, Blommers/Schumm, Jason Evans, Neil Drabble, Harley Weir, Asger Carlsen, Darian Darling, Brandon Olson, Lady Starlight, Jordan Clark, Eli Craven, Stefen Ruitenbeek, Johnny Dufort, nightcoregirl, Milk, Ernie Glam, Bjarne Melgaard, Eva Stenram, Isabelle Wenzel, Colin Dodgson, Camgirls Project, Angela Washko, Alexandra Vogt, Nina Antonia, Alexander Kattke, Juliana Huxtable, Walt Cassidy, Mark SaFranko, Tony O’Neill and our cover stars Inside Flesh.

The Happy Reader
Issue 1



Published by:

64 pages 17 x 24.5 cm Softcover 2014  Available now for pre-order.  To be dispatched Monday 17th November.

£3.00

The Happy Reader is a new magazine published by Penguin Classics in collaboration with the creators of the award-winning Fantastic Man. For avid readers and the uninitiated alike, it is a chance to reengage with classic literature and to stay inspired and entertained. The concept of the magazine is excitingly simple: the first half is a long-form interview with a notable book fanatic and the second half explores one Penguin Classics title from an array of surprising and invigorating angles, through fashion, art, lifestyle, history, film and more. The Happy Reader never patronizes, nor does it seek to baffle its audience with literary name-dropping or pedantry, wearing its bookish curiosity with a playful lightness of touch, delighting in the potential for whimsy and humour. The magazine is centred on the concept of 'precious print', as embodied by Penguin Classics and Fantastic Man. It explores the myriad advantages of the printed word and image: beautiful typography, high dwell time, the matte charm of ink on paper, the calming luxury of being 'offline'. The magazine is a design object in and of itself.

Palais
Issue 20



Published by:

192 pages 28.5 x 22.5 cm Softcover 2014

£13.90

The issue 20 of the magazine PALAIS reflects the new season of exhibitions at the Palais de Tokyo, from October 2014 to January 2015, and more particularly the exhibition“Inside”. On this occasion, the questions of the inside and of interiority have inspired contributions from philosophers, anthropologists, historians, architects, and curators. Main theme “Inside”: A dossier in text and image which explores the issues related to the notions of inside and interiority in dialogue with the exhibition “Inside” and the works on display. The exhibition presented at the Palais de Tokyo offers an interior voyage, which is both physical and mental, into an interiority for which the exhibition space is a metaphor. With contributions by Jean Clottes and David Lewis-Williams (prehistory specialist), Françoise Dastur (philosopher), James Elkins (art historian), Alexa Hagerty(researcher in anthropology), Frédérique Ildefonse (philosopher), Georges Teyssot(architect and theorist) and by the curators of the exhibition Jean de Loisy, Daria de Beauvais et Katell Jaffrès. David Maljković: “In Low Resolution”, David Maljković’s first solo exhibition in a Parisian institution, is a temporal staging of individual memory and the collective imagination, just as much as it is of the temporal nature of experience and of its representation. From the starting point of a work on the difficulty of the heritage of the past, the curator of the exhibition Julien Fronsacq investigates how the Croatian artist may develop a far broader reflection about time, conducted by an extended use of collage. And also: “Inside China : l’intérieur du Géant”, a special project that brings together the works of seven emerging artists from China and France. With contributions by the artists Li Gang, Wu Hao, Renaud Jerez, Yu Ji, Edwin Lo, Aude Pariset and Zhao Yao; a focus on five emerging artists from the contemporary art scene: Jean-Marie Appriou,Virginie Gouband, Louise Pressager, Enrique Ramírez and Qingmei Yao; as well as a visual contribution specially conceived by the artist Shahryar Nashat.

17/02/2011 20.05 (EST) There is a public CCTV camera trained on Times Square, at the corner of 7th Ave and West 46th St. Every day, thousands of people look at other people through it. At 8.05pm on 17th Feb 2011, a user of the anonymous messageboard 4chan knocked down the card stand that lingers tantalisingly in the corner of the CCTV camera’s frame. This publication shows the image responses posted to 4chan’s /b/ messageboard chronologically and simultaneously by various anonymous collaborators, who for one brief moment were connected virtually by vicarious urges, united in the act of witnessing.

Iain Sinclair
Red Eye



Published by: Test Centre Books

80 pages 30 x 18 cm Softcover Edition of 500

£15.00

A lost foolscap typescript until its recent unearthing, the long poem RED EYE was written in 1973 for publication by Sinclair’s Albion Village Press the following year. Set aside to accommodate other books from the press, and pushed aside by darker forces, RED EYE is now revealed to be pivotal between Sinclair’s early, locally based texts and the larger, more mythic structures of Lud Heat. Comprised of stylistically and thematically different sections, in its documentation of daily domestic life RED EYE functions in parallel to Sinclair’s diary filming of late-1960s Hackney life, whilst its literal and poetical topographic journeys outward mirror the experimentation of the early film Maggot Street. The text of RED EYE receives its emotional equivalent in 16 full colour stills from these films, not to illustrate but to present a subconsciously connected film script, a series of alternate ‘books’.

I Love Roses When They're Past Their Best



Published by: Test Centre Books

137 pages 13 x 20 cm Edition of 400

£12.00

Edited by Harry Burke with poems by Rachael Allen, Jayinee Basu, Gabby Bess, Crispin Best, Harry Burke, Sophie Collins, Carina Finn, Cassandra Gillig, Francesca Lisette, Luna Miguel, Marianne Morris, Sam Riviere, Bunny Rogers, Guillermo Ruiz de Loizaga, Timothy Thornton & Vicki Tingle. I Love Roses When They’re Past Their Best is an experimental poetry anthology which brings together the work of 16 young poets whose work has been influenced by the digital age. The poems reflect new and innovative methods of poetic composition, with authors working in conjunction with the impersonal operations of algorithms and databases. Each of the poets whose work appears in the anthology has his or her own methods of engaging and interacting with computer or web-based technologies. This ranges from poems consisting of sequences of online search results, to works which take as their starting point the materials of social media. An accompanying website was developed to mark the release of the book: iloveroseswhentheyrepasttheirbest.net The book was designed by PWR Studio, a ‘cloud-based’ studio with physical presence in Amsterdam and Berlin. This collaboration has enabled the production and aesthetics of the anthology to be situated within a design remit that understands the importance of web infrastructure and typography.

The 9 Lives of Ray The Cat Jones



Published by: Test Centre Books

272 pages 11 x 18 cm Edition of 500

£15.00

 The 9 Lives of Ray The Cat Jones is the exciting new novel by writer, artist and performer Stewart Home. It tells the story of the life of Ray ‘The Cat’ Jones, who nearly became middleweight boxing champion of the world but instead went on to become the greatest cat burglar of all time and made one of the most notorious prison escapes in British history. Ray is a tee-total, fitness obsessed, working-class Welshman whose boxing ambitions were thwarted when he was set up by a corrupt cop and sent to prison for a crime he didn’t commit, setting him on a path of revenge and a crusade against the inequalities and injustices of British society. Ray is a modern Robin Hood waging an ideological class war against the rich. From the jewels of movie stars Elizabeth Taylor and Sophia Loren, to the private papers of the Duke of Windsor, paintings by Rubens and Rembrandt, and the furs of the London aristocracy, Ray’s carefully targeted burglaries are perfectly planned and thrillingly executed. Part biography, part true crime story, part political manifesto, the novel combines Home’s typically sharp social and political comment with a fascinating, highly personal story of a life of crime and punishment. Ray was, it emerges, the cousin of Home’s mother. The novel is in many ways a departure for Home; formally more traditional than his avant-garde ‘anti-novels’, nonetheless it plays with the traditions of biographical writing, blurring the lines between real life and fiction, biography and autobiography. It is as funny and astute as anything Home has written. Its compelling amalgamation of the genres of biography, crime thriller, historical fiction, satire and political protest novel will appeal to Home’s many followers, while attracting a wide new range of readers. To the uninitiated, it is a perfect way in to the unique world of Home’s writing.
