books about art — Julie Harrison

The New York Times recently listed A Book About Colab (and Related Activities) as one of the top books of the year for art lovers. Check it out and buy it here (just in time for the holidays)! For those new to this website, I was an early member of Collaborative Projects, and my work is in this book!

"Books and Museum Treats for Art Lovers," by Roberta Smith, Randy Kennedy, and Ted Loos. The New York Times. The New York Times, 24 Nov. 2016. Web.

“A group of more than 40 artists who — in the Wild West that was New York City in the late 1970s and early ’80s — did things that now seem unbelievable.”

— Randy Kennedy, New York Times

Edited by Max Schumann (New York: Printed Matter), 2016.

This is a wonderful book put together by Max Schumann from Printed Matter, and includes lots and lots of ephemera from various activities by Collaborative Projects, a group of artists I was involved with in the late ’70s/early ’80s.

In celebration of the book, Colab is re-creating the “A More Store” at Printed Matter from April 15–May 15. The store will feature artist multiples for sale at reasonable prices. I’m including a 5-postcard set (reproduced from work made with Robert Kleyn in 1983) ...
