Five Years of Fellowships for Visual Artists
California Community Foundation (CCF) with the support of the Getty Foundation will unveil their retrospective awards catalogue: Common Threads, Shared Spaces: Five Years of Fellowships for Visual Artists. Department of Graphic Sciences has been given the honor of creating the book's design and is collaborating with writer and project manager Irene Tsatsos. Others members of the project team include Namju Cho and Leslie Ito of CCF and Angie Kim of the Getty. This catalogue provides the unique opportunity of highlighting the diverse works of 61 Los Angeles artists. It will release in March, 2009.
A Field Guide: the Book
Keep an eye out for a comprehensive guide to The Machine Project Field Guide to LACMA, currently in the works and due out in September of this year. The explosive exhibition took place at LACMA on November 15, 2008, featuring performances, workshops, installations and events that introduced new ways of experiencing LACMAs expansive space and it's mazelike galleries. The book seeks to not only document these projects but further practices beyond the actual day by featuring new works, essays and interviews.
