Performance as Publishing
Performance as Publishing is an artist-led research project, which investigates overlaps between performance practice, events, discourse and writing. The project explores the work of contemporary artists who use text and writing/speaking as a basis for their performance. This opening event in the Classroom includes performances by artists Rita Sobral Campos, Jeanine Oleson, Nicole Bachmann and Ruth Beale, poster works by Anna Barham and Fiona Banner, and a table with publications by past participants. The works will consider the flow between live and static, spoken and written, whilst questioning the qualities of performance and performativity. With kind support of Arts Council England and Pro Helvetia.

The Innermost, by Kurt Johannessen
Kurt Johannessen will present a performance/lecture, “The Innermost,” based on the book with the same title. With the help of simple drawings, he tells about the innermost, the three spaces and the two movements of the universe, and how these movements and the innermost effect the different spaces. “The Innermost” is one of 7 performance/lectures/books in the series “About something.” (Norway Focus)

Mark von Schlegell, Ickles, Etc.
To celebrate the release of Mark von Schlegell’s new collection of theory-fictions, Ickles, Etc., the art writer and SciFi author will be in conversation with editor, architect, and curator Nikolaus Hirsch. In this book, the fifth installment of the Critical Spatial Practice series edited by Hirsch and Markus Miessen, info-architect Henries Ickles attempts to inject the ideals of Robert Heinlein’s supermodernist Quintus Teal into a yawning twenty-second century of augmented reality and peculiar eyewear. Fiction finds itself surviving past the death of theory, in a “sit-down comedy” of total speculation. With artwork by Louise Lawler. Presented by Sternberg Press.
4:00-5:00 pm
Mitre Marrows, by Pedro Gómez-Egaña
In this performance Pedro Gómez-Egaña imagines being possessed by two automata that have fused together. Together they go over ideas of death, family and bicycles.

5:00-6:00 pm
OHO and the Korean Avant-Garde Association by Ištvan Išt Huzjan
OHO and the Korean Avant-Garde Association is a compilation of images from works of two neo-conceptual artistic movements from the late 60’s and early 70’s that have, despite geographic distance and no knowledge about each other, produced formally similar work. The publication is an artistic study of these similarities. As stated in the book’s colophon, the new owner of this book (in this case, MoMA Library) can request Huzjan to perform his piece OD TU DO TU, during which he will talk about the context of his research and his work in general. Huzjan’s performance is a simple gesture where the artist enters the chosen location and barefooted measures the distance between two random architectural elements chosen together by the artist and the person in possession of the book. Presented by MER. Paper Kunsthalle.
6:00-7:00 pm
Dorothy Iannone: You Who Read Me With Passion Now Must Forever Be My Friends with Trinie Dalton and Lisa Pearson
The often-censored, self-taught octogenarian American artist Dorothy Iannone has been making exuberantly sexual, taboo-shattering and joyfully transgressive image+text works for over five decades, often drawing on autobiography and incorporating lovers and friends into her hybrid narratives. Siglio publisher Pearson will talk with critic and writer Trinie Dalton about Iannone’s provocative and pioneering work—now collected in the new publication as well as featured in an exhibition of her artist’s books in the Dome at PS1 during this year’s New York Art Book Fair. Presented by Printed Matter and Siglio Press.

How to Hack an Abstraction: Google Warhol, a conversation with McKenzie Wark
For the launch of a very special October issue of e-flux journal dedicated to Elizabeth Povinelli’s Quasi-Events, Brian Kuan Wood sits down with McKenzie Wark to discuss how the consolidation of finance and art asks for an update to the task of what Wark has termed the hacker class. If we take art as an expanded notion of design, how can we then intervene into the way contemporary capitalism steals our intellectual labor under the auspices of some mythical form/content divide? And how is that impossible when, after all, I am my own money? Presented by e-flux journal.

PEE ON PRESIDENTS by Melanie Bonajo. Screening and Conversation with Melanie Bonajo and Bruno Ceschel
Pee on Presidents is a collection of more then 500 photographs of peeing girls taken by Melanie Bonajo during 1998-2013.

The music is a protest song by ZaZaZoZo (Melanie Bonajo & Josep Marzolla) and released as a bonus track on their album Inua. In the song and video patterns of hierarchy, sexism, bureaucracy and patriarchal structures in our society are being ridiculed. It got banned by youtube.

Mail-, Pop-, Conceptual-artist Ray Johnson began making small, dense artists books in the 1950s; over the next 40 years the books went through a dimensional transformation that transcended the limits of space-time into simultaneously ephemeral and eternal ouroboroi of endless pages of return. “This third paragraph (…) has been cut out because it did not have the element of surprise like seeing the moon in the sky.” (Ray Johnson, 1967) Presented by Siglio Press.

Deliverance
A group of special guests (TBA) will read/perform Deliverance: Writings on Postal Relations, a book chronicling Marc Fischer’s committed but fraught bond with Chicago’s Logan Square Post Office. The performance will convey the frustration, the anguish, the periodic and unexpected joy, and the frequent sorrow of Fischer, a man who mails a lot of stuff. A habitual letter writer and collector, Fischer started the initiative Public Collectors and is a member of Temporary Services, a group which makes and distributes publications as well as Half Letter Press, a publishing imprint and web-store; all of this necessitates frequent trips to the post office. Many will be able to commiserate with Fischer’s difficult postal relations, but for people in the audience who have never waited on line at the Post Office, well… this will be their moment to learn in a classroom setting. Presented by Soberscove Press.3:00-4:00 pm

David Reinfurt on Bruno Munari, circa 1962
Thus we can speak of ‘programmed’ art, and admire the kinetic sculptures that a man of a coming future will install in his house, in place of the old prints of the modern masterpieces reproduced. And if someone should observe that this is not painting, nor even sculpture, it should be of no concern. One could then start a contest to find a new name, but let us not be frightened by a question of names.

Rather than focus on primarily on content or on the technical, this exchange will try and see how the two lead each other in new directions. With East of Borneo, Triple Canopy, and WdW Review. Presented by Witte de With.
5:00 – 6:00 pm

Tristan Shepherd
Tristan Shepherd is a composer, improviser and turntablist from Dearborn, MI currently based in Brooklyn, NY. His work includes installation pieces for multichannel audio, appearances as an improviser in group ensembles and compositions for solo turntable. Using a combination of modified records and custom dubplates as source material, his compositions consist of a sonic counterpoint and bricolage that hinge on the decontextualization and reanimation of the musical gestures ‘frozen’ on the records. Most recently, he curated “Incidental Music”, an exhibition of site specific installations and performances at the Fragmental Museum’s project space: a 4 story, 50,000 sq. ft. former zipper factory. Tristan has performed at Roulette Intermedium, Harvestworks, The Emily Harvey Foundation, MoMA PS1, and the Whitney Museum of American Art.

EXHIBITIONS
Printed Matter proudly presents an exhibition of Dorothy Iannone‘s artists’ books, with support from Air de Paris, Peres Projects and Siglio Press. The American-born, Berlin-based artist is famous for her whimsical, colorful and, perhaps most importantly, explicit depictions of female sexuality – which have, since the 1960s, often fell prey to censorship. This exhibition, in the Dome at PS1, showcases a selection of Iannone’s artist books and printed ephemera, and Printed Matter and Dorothy Iannone have also produced a Fundraising Edition to support the NY Art Book Fair.
Andrew Roth in association with PPP Editions presents two new books: Watanabe Katsumi’s Rock Punk Disco 1960s – 1980s including black-and-white photographs shot at night in dance and strip clubs in Shinjuku, along with excerpts of Watanabe’s writing from Discology, published in 1982. Here and Now: Atomic Bomb Artifacts, ひろしま/Hiroshima 1945/2007—is a new limited edition artist book by Ishiuchi Miyako printing 230 color photographs of clothing and personal effects that survived the blast and were gifted to the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum Archive by the families of the deceased.
Boo-Hooray presents The Tattooed Dragon Meets The Wolfman – the science fiction fanzine collection of Lenny Kaye, member of The Patti Smith Group, legendary compiler of Nuggets, music historian, and a once-teenage SF fanzine editor/publisher/contributor.

Ranging from 1941 to 1969, these fanzines represent ground zero for the zine explosion that was to come years later in rock, punk, skate, fashion, and art. Primarily published on mimeograph machines, science-fiction fanzines were initially small-run circulars traded amongst fans that offered criticism, letters to the editor, and gossip from the 1930s up until digital. This visionary amateur art is outside the realm of anything we’ve ever seen.
Bruce Silverstein Gallery presents Book by Book: 2nd Edition, an installation by the renowned book artist, Keith A. Smith. The exhibition will be comprised of unique and editioned books, prints, and photographs from the 1960s-2014. Additionally, Smith has created three images to be released as special editions in conjunction with the fair. Smith’s earliest books from the 1960s set the bar for the possibilities within this art form. Additionally, his influence as a teacher and author on the subjects of alternative bookbinding and structure is widespread; this exhibition will be an opportunity to view his acclaimed methods and process that have inspired artists over the decades.

Norwegian platform FRANK, run by the artists Liv Bugge and Sille Storihle, presents Marie Høeg Meets Klara Lidén. In the 1980s a box of glass negatives was found in a barn in Eastern Norway; the person behind these rediscovered images proved to be Marie Høeg (1866-1949), a Norwegian suffragist and photographer. In this exhibition, FRANK pairs Høeg’s photographs, challenging normative notions of gender in the late 19thand early 20th century, with work by contemporary Swedish artist Klara Lidén. The pairing suggests dislocating the narration of history as linear progression through humor, play, and sly performativity.
Iván Navarro and Hueso Records presents The Music Room, a site specific installation allowing fairgoers to listen to the work of non-musicians who maintain an audio practice as an extension of their body of work. The sounds that emerge out of these collaborative recordings are informed by the diverse visual and conceptual experiences from a range of artists, architects, graphic designers and thinkers.
Nieves is celebrating 10 Years of Nieves Zines. All 200 zines published since 2004 are shown together for the first time. Aaron Rose writes: “Nieves could possibly be considered the world’s first “zine” publishing company. Never before has one person and a black and white photocopier been responsible for such a prolific body of work spanning such a diverse group of artists”.
