Journal of Radical Shimming

The Journal of Radical Shimming is the house organ of Red76, self-published and always given away for free. Edited by Sam Gould (with the exception of issue #5 which was co-edited with Gabriel Saloman) the JRS acts as a contextual bridge between intiatives and major exhibitions and projects by Red76. “The JRS is, apart from a means of documenting “radical” histories, a tool in print form in which to instigate discussion on how we encounter and define these histories; accepted, or otherwise. As well, the JRS is a forum in which to propose simple tools to instigate possible future histories in the making.”

Manifesta 8

The European Biennial of Contemporary Art, Region of Murcia (Spain) in dialog with Northern Africa

Published by Silvana Editoriale, 2010

Paperback, 352 pgs / 260 color

We have as much time as it takes
Graduate Program in Curatorial Practice at CCA and CCA Wattis Institute for Contemporary Arts, 2010

Paperback, 112 pages

 

Designed by Jon Sueda / Stripe, this one-color, 112-page exhibition catalog reflects many of the themes of We have as much time as it takes, including circular processes and resistance to the production of assessable results. The book features an exposed binding, nontraditional typesetting, and the absence of a cover. Challenging a common function of the conventional exhibition catalog, the images are speculative rather than documentary: a set of 10 drawings by Matthew Rana (a student in the Graduate Program in Visual and Critical Studies) illustrates his interpretation of the works in the show prior to the exhibition’s creation. The book also includes new texts by the poet Jasper Bernes and the writers Erica Levin and Daniel Marcus, an essay by Jacqueline Clay and Kristin Korolowicz, and interviews with each of the featured artists.

Featured Artists
Nina Beier and Marie Lund, David Horvitz, Jason Mena, Sandra Nakamura, Roman Ondák, Red76, Zachary Royer Scholz, Tercerunquinto, Lawrence Weiner, Christine Wong Yap
