David Savary
Centre Culturel Suisse 2016 ISBN 9782909230207 Acqn 26229
Pb 20x27cm 224pp 150ills 125col 36.50
A visual journey through ten years of Denis Savary's exhibitions. Spanning a wide range of
mediums, from drawing to video, performing arts to sculpture, the work of Denis Savary
fictionalizes fragments of art and literature, and deals with historical figures such as Max Ernst,
Oskar Kokoschka, Flix Vallotton, and Lautramont. Savary's practice weaves narratives steeped
in childhood fantasies and adult phantasmagoria, notably through a vision of exhibition as a
domestic place that the spectator can inhabit.

Ron Nagle
Silver Gate 2016 ISBN 9780979178719 Acqn 26393
Hb 24x29cm 232pp 155ills 95col 48.50
Years in the making, this definitive monograph presents nearly six decades of work by the
pioneering San Franciscobased ceramic sculptor Ron Nagle (born 1939). The plates section
features 51 sculptures made since 1958, all reproduced in full colour. Critical essays by Joel
Selvin and David Pagel and a foreword by Dave Hickey offer diverse perspectives on Nagles
accomplishments as both an artist and a musician. An illustrated chronology provides an
overview of his life and work, including his apprenticeship with ceramicist Peter Voulkos, his
seminal role in San Franciscos psychedelic music scene, his sound design for the film The
Exorcist, and his obsessive devotion to intimately scaled sculpture. Nagles irrepressible
personality comes through in the books innovative design, which includes a jacket that unfolds
into a poster of the artist dressed as his film hero Charlie Chan. Also included is a CD of 21 songs
spanning Nagles musical career, from the 1960s to the 2000s.

Making Room is an anthology of texts on art, media and aesthetic practice in the context of
squatting, occupation and urban-space activism. It includes pieces by activist researchers

activists involved in struggles over urban space and creative production in the city. Topics include
brief histories of squatting in the UK, Germany and the Netherlands; the creation of Temporary
Autonomous Zones; Puerto Rican occupations in New York; the influence of the Situationists on
French squatting; and activism and camping at Documentas 10, 11 and 13. Throughout, cultural

communities and networks, to the production of media and setting up of information systems.

Ordinary Pictures
Walker Art Center 2016 ISBN 9781935963134 Acqn 26010
Pb 20x31cm 208pp 171ills 146col 41
Despite its apparent throwaway status, the stock image comprises the primary commodity of a
billion-dollar global industry with far-reaching effects in the marketplace and the public sphere.
Taking this overlooked facet of contemporary life as a point of departure, Ordinary Pictures
explores the photographic apparatuses and commercial interests that have given rise to our
generic image culture through the conceptual image-based work of some 40 artists, including
John Baldessari, Steven Baldi, Sarah Charlesworth, Anne Collier, Liz Deschenes, John Divola,
Aleksandra Domanovic, Hans-Peter Feldmann, Morgan Fisher, Hollis Frampton, Jack Goldstein,
Rachel Harrison, Robert Heinecken, Leslie Hewitt, Elad Lassry, Louise Lawler, Sherrie Levine,
Steve McQueen, Jack Pierson, Peter Piller, Seth Price, Amanda Rossotto, Ed Ruscha, Steven
Shore, Sturtevant, Mungo Thomson, Wolfgang Tillmans, Tseng Kwong Chi, Julia Wachtel and
Christopher Williams. Spanning generations, movements and artistic strategies from the 1960s to
the present day, this publication brings together works by artists who have probed, mimicked and
critiqued this aspect of our visual environment as well as its industrial modes of production and
distribution. Through the work of these artists and a series of scholarly essays, the catalogue
aims to examine different operations of the generic image in culture, namely its anonymous
circulation and editorial uses, its adaptability and reproducibility, its technical processes of
production, its claim to copyright and artistic license and its tendency toward abstraction.
Featuring a unique, coil-bound design reminiscent of stock photo catalogues and a flexidisc
recording by the artist Jack Goldstein, this highly collectible book ultimately reflects on
contemporary arts own complicit function as an expanding industrial image economy.
