Last Copies! 336 Pages 336 Books / Available at www.draw-down.com / A diminutive book with a black binding, its precisely 336 pages each show an extreme close-up of the numbered portion of a page from one of 336 different books from the past century and more. The concept and design by Tania Prill, Alberto Vieceli and Sebastian Cremers is light-hearted and enigmatic, while simultaneously also a fascinating exercise in bibliophilic and typographical pursuits. The composition and structure of the project reference George Brecht's work, while the title is inspired by the artist books of Ed Ruscha, which make the content of a volume transparent. The concept for the book apparently originated during the reading of p. 243 of Bram Stoker's Dracula. Printed in an edition of 400 copies.

NEW IN THE BOOKSHOP: HAPPENING & FLUXUS (1979) The great “Happening & Fluxus” book, published on the occasion of the exhibition of the same name at the Kölnischer Kunstverein in 1970, curated by Harald Szeemann. This exhaustive Fluxus document is illustrated heavily throughout and broken into two important sections : 1. Chronology 1959-1970 (a detailed cataloguing of this incredible period of happenings, actions, concerts, meals, exhibitions and any related events, illustrated with photography along with dates, locations, those involved, and reproductions of the related ephemera), 2. Bibliography 1959-1970 (again heavily illustrated with detailed cataloguing of printed material about Fluxus and related actions, artists, exhibitions, performances, as well as a detailed listing for each featured artist of their publications, writings, art editions, etc). Book includes works by Wolf Vostell, Daniel Spoerri, Nam June Paik, Tetsumi Kudo, Tadeusz Kantor, Dick Higgins, George Brecht, Allan Kaprow, Yoko Ono, Claes Oldenburg, Alison Knowles, Robert Filliou, Stanley Brouwn, Bazon Brock, Joseph Beuys, Eric Anderson, Viennese Actionists, Charlotte Moorman, Günter Brus, Emmett Williams, Ben Vautier, Carolee Schneemann, Otto Muehl, Robert Watts, Al Hansen, Henry Flynt, Philip Corner, Henning Christiansen, Robert Rauschenberg, John Cage, and many more. First major compilation of this material compiled by Harald Szeemann to accompany a now legendary exhibition. “There is neither here nor in the exhibition, a fix-ready answer to the question: What is happening, what is Fluxus.” One copy via our website and in the bookshop. #worldfoodbooks #fluxus #happening #haraldszeemann #georgebrecht #1970 (at WORLD FOOD BOOKS)
