SWEETTOMB

The Corresponding Society is thrilled to launch the !How Now! chapbook series! Feast your senses on the wild morels and wonderful whirlpools issuing from Trinie Dalton’s ("Escape Mushroom Style") and Popahna Brandes' (“The Sea In Me/The Riddle We Heard”) rich and dreamy fiction. And don't forget to cozy up with Chanelle Bergeron's fresh herbal lyric, "Litttle Breather." Each of these three new works are encrusted with gems, musical bridges, hidden doors, and mysterious outcomes -- don’t you want to know more?

The books are brightly colored and beautifully pressed; pocketsized and available for sale; so please stop in for readings, red wine, homebrew, and moontalk. TCS will also be introducing Robert Snyderman's imprint, Urgent Series, featuring a reading from "correspondent" Lonely Christopher and Snyderman himself, plus, perhaps, a brief but engaging word on the metaphysical implications of Urgent!

Please, come! It should be fun. We haven't done this in a while, and it might be a while more before we gather again!

Trinie Dalton's books include Wide Eyed (Akashic), Dear New Girl or Whatever Your Name Is (McSweeney's: co-edited with Eli Horowitz and Lisa Wagner), Mythtym (Picturebox), and Sweet Tomb (Madras Press). Dalton's next story collection, Baby Geisha, is forthcoming this winter (Two Dollar Radio). She teaches fiction and critical writing at USC, Art Center College of Design, SVA and Vermont College of Fine Arts.

Popahna Brandes' fiction, translation, film, and music have appeared in The Encyclopedia Project, Pocket Myths, Tarpaulin Sky, and Ein Magazin über Orte.

A bunch of my favorite writing friends and people are involved with Matthew Stadler's new press, Publication Studio. His publishing model might be the wave of the future. My newly-launched risograph press, Rainbow Riso, might be more on a past wave but I'm working on that. More news on the first release soon... For now, here's Stadler at Bookforum and a link to his press.

The risograph print edition Lauren Mackler designed for me on behalf of Margaret Tedesco's gallery really looks sharp! Teal + brown inks on various 11x17 paper. Thanks to Margaret for that opportunity. The opening was warm and enticing; Rebeca and Scott installed in the space in unique, dynamic ways. You can see Lauren's design in the photo here, see also her website for more radical design:

Looks like metafiction is popular again! Nylon's "Shelf Help" books page is consistently interesting and supports all manner of publications pushing the envelope.

Cristina Toro

2010-12-02T14:37:00.000-08:00

I received a letter in my mailbox the other day from a woman named Cristina Toro, and attached to this very kind letter was an intricate painting that looks as if it is embroidered. I wrote back to Cristina and she tells me that this painting (above, the painting that spells MOON) is large, 5x7. She has also made other alluringly stitched-style paintings, and so I thought I'd post a couple here. Exciting to get mail from people out there making work I might have missed otherwise...

2010-10-14T12:06:00.000-07:00

Here is a new book that just arrived on my doorstep, and it's a real honor to be a part of it. McSweeney's has published an ultra-deluxe volume about their book design endeavors, and each book entry is accompanied by design images and anecdotal tales about the making of the book. Interview snippets throughout. Dear New Girl or Whatever Your Name Is occupies a couple spreads, and there are some educational sections about the practicalities of publishing McSweeney's and The Believer. This book makes me excited about printed matter (again).

Grey Oceans

2010-06-08T12:41:00.000-07:00

I'm loving Cocorosie's new album, Grey Oceans. And I especially love it because Matt shot the covers for the CD and LP. There was a lot of feltcraft and blue-grey paint happening back when those photo shoots took place. Cocorosie will be touring the US soon, and I hope people enjoy how much fire they've got right now cooking their looks and sounds. It's not all grey and watery; as with everything they do, it's an elemental brew. Here's a sweet little movie they made about how art is "polishing god's shoes."

Homunculi vs. Fruiting Bodies

2010-06-07T17:05:00.000-07:00

It was a shame that Brian Chippendale's Fruiting Bodies opening collided with our Homunculi opening at CANADA, but it's not a competition. Matt and I stopped by Cinders yesterday before heading back to LA to see Chippendale's wicked and very pinkish new body of collaged silkscreen/paintings:

http://blog.cindersgallery.com/

Best of all, Matt and Brian came face to face to taint each other further with mushroom madness. How many mushrooms can two men paint? I see a fungi collaboration in the future...

If you're in NYC Chinatown, please check out Homunculi, a chunky set of paintings and sculptures by four stellar artists, starring gnomes, a fox, shadow puppets, eye-shaped cloaks, hobo clowns, fuschia trannies, and some witchy, green-handed women. I think CANADA will post more photos as time allows:

Report from Portland

2010-06-07T16:47:00.001-07:00

I *love* Powell's; I wish I could overnight it to rove the shelves for a good twelve hours by candlelight. Last time I was there I dropped major cash after I raided their mushroom field guide section. An artist I admire, Wendy Given, snapped this at Powell's and made my day. I just wrote an essay about her lovely new body of witch-related artwork, for an exhibition of hers that opened at Wieden + Kennedy gallery called How To Explain Magic to A Dead Rabbit:

THEME Magazine & PARIS/LA

2010-05-28T12:53:00.000-07:00

THEME is a magazine I've discovered recently after doing a couple articles for them. Each issue is themed and curated by killer people; it's a real pretty print magazine too. Hisham Bharoocha curated this one about "music community" and for it I profiled Lucky Dragons. They posted it on-line too so more people can see the article:

http://www.thememagazine.com/stories/hawks-and-sparrows/

Also did a piece about photographer Mickey Smith for the issue coming after this one...they matched us up for the "collections" issue to talk about the role books play in the art world. Check this mag out if you get a chance because it's one of the more interesting glossies out there at the moment.

PARIS/LA is another magazine I'm jazzed up about. Their bent is on the overlap between Paris and LA, this coming from one of the previous editors at Purple. So you know it's looking good! Each edition comes wrapped in a poster. In this Summer issue I was lucky enough to have interviewed Dorothy Iannone.

The New Everyday Life

2010-05-03T09:56:00.001-07:00

I just got back from the desert after a very successful first session of The New Everyday Life. Here is a photo of the compound next to headquarters where some of the action went down. Wells' bus full of leather goods was pretty dang inspiring, as was his two pens full of Nubian and Pygmy goats. I am SO getting a pair of goats someday. Katie's rather strong herbal beers were ultra delicious. We tried bottles of Ginger and Honey Basil. Chantal made us fish tacos to munch while meditating upon our huge bonfire out on BLM land next to her veggie diesel Vanagon, and Andrea gave us a tour of her newest knitted works that will soon ship to Sadie Coles. I taught Japanese stab stitch, pamplet stitch, and long stitch. So it was a weekend full of art and inspiration.

I feel confident we will plan another session. Here is the itinerary Andrea cooked up for this first series, and this will be the site where we hopefully post some of the photos taken of the work sessions. So check back here for updates:

There is this website I discovered recently when I was invited by The Believer to make a little story about an object to raise money for a good cause. They attach stories to thrift store objects to auction them off on E-Bay. It's a lot of fun:

2 Los Angeles Events

2010-01-14T15:14:00.000-08:00

Hi friends,

I'll be in LA for these two events, one on January 22nd at Las Cienegas Projects and one on January 28th at Family Books. It would be great to see you at one or both!

Here's the link to the Family listing, flyer to come:

Here's the release with info about the Las Cienegas Projects show.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

DANTE BREBNER AND MARCOS ROSALES IN COLLABORATION WITH FRANCIS COY
ISMAEL DE ANDA
TRINIE DALTON
January 23 - February 20, 2010
Opening Reception:
Saturday, January 23, 7-10 pm

Las Cienegas Projects is extremely pleased to announce 3 new exhibitions and a series of events including Dante Brebner and Marcos Rosales in collaboration with Francis Coy: In the Interim Lies the Darkness (Main Gallery), Ismael de Anda: Shag Quixote (Project Space), and Trinie Dalton’s Zine Workshop / Slide Talk / Exhibition (Back Room).

Back Room
TRINIE DALTON
Zine/Bookmaking Workshop, Slide Talk and Exhibition

Las Cienegas Projects is excited to welcome writer, editor and artist Trinie Dalton for a series of events including a slide talk, zine/bookmaking workshop and an exhibition curated by Dalton showcasing its results. The talk will be divided into 3 parts, covering Bruno Munari’s Xerografia project, Copy Art, and the History of Zines. For the workshop, Las Cienegas Projects has invited several Los Angeles-based artists to participate, and has additionally left open several slots to the public.

Dalton is perhaps most recognized for the publication she co-edited, Dear New Girl or Whatever Your Name Is, an assortment of drawing works by 35 visual artists in repsonse to a selection of high school notes passed by students and confiscated by Dalton during her days as a substitute teacher--when she often secretly delighted in reading them or applauded their creativity—and distributed to the artists who then responded in drawing form, incorporating pieces of text and doodles from the original notes. NPR’s Ketzel Levine noted “I am strangely mesmerized by this cross between a high school kid’s notebook and a 21st century pen and ink retrospective”.

Trinie Dalton has authored, curated, and/or co-edited five books: Wide Eyed (Akashic), A Unicorn Is Born (Abrams), Dear New Girl or Whatever Your Name Is (McSweeney's), Mythtym (Picturebox), and Sweet Tomb (Madras Press). Her art books are often accompanied by visual art and exhibitions surrounding issues of art + text. Dalton makes zines and handmade books, curating shows around them. For her Werewolf Express, she curated part of "Zines Unbound: Werewolves, Kults, and Sarcastic Hippies" at San Francisco’s Yerba Buena Center. For Mythtym, she has been presenting lectures on topics such as mirrors in horror and the history of photocopy art. She recently has done slide talk/workshops at the Observatory in Brooklyn and at Deitch Projects as part of the PIG Sunday School curated by Gelatin. A paper based on her slide talk/workshop for Las Cienegas Projects will publish in French in Les Editions Particules, and in English in X-Tra.

Slide talk: Friday, January 22, 8pm. Open to the public (free, limited seating
available)
Workshop*: Friday, January 22, 5pm-10pm (by reservation only; includes slide talk)
Exhibition: Opening reception: Saturday, January 23, 7-10pm
*For further workshop information or to make a reservation, please contact Amy Thoner at 213.595.8017

Las Cienegas Projects is a new artist-run project space and gallery focusing on large-scale, collaborative and project-based artworks by a broad range of local, national and international emerging and mid-career artists. For further information and press materials, please contact LCP Co-director Amy Thoner at lascienegasprojects@gmail.com or 213.595.8017

The Tanners by Robert Walser

2010-01-06T14:23:00.001-08:00

I was lucky enough to review the newly translated Robert Walser novel recently. It is his first novel, and I'd totally recommend it as a starting point into Walser's oeuvre.

Rupert reads

2009-12-13T08:31:00.000-08:00

My dear friend Rupert is reading Monday night and she wants to invite people to Capricious. So come say hi if you want, it'll be a tea party too!

Wieden+Kennedy Storytime

2009-12-06T12:08:00.000-08:00

Oh! There is one more thing I wanted to tell you about---then I will shut up about my news and post some other things.

Wieden+Kennedy started a radio program and one segment called Storytime focuses on short stories. Seems like a fun idea; you can listen to stories on podcast...Here is a link to the one I did with them, "Frog Hole '08" dedicated to my favorite frog pond in the Catskills. This talented sound engineer, Jason Roark, laid a frog-chirp soundtrack behind the reading and I really like what he did!

Good looking lit journals

I'm not planning on posting each time I have fiction coming out in a journal, so don't worry! But there are two upcoming that I'm pretty excited about.

The Lifted Brow is from Australia:

and Here and Noun is from Canada:

What journals are you into these days? I'm on a quest to discover the good new ones...

I'm reading to celebrate the release of Sweet Tomb and the publisher, Sumanth, is traveling in from Boston to read with me. It should be an interesting event!

Art + Culture blog

Hi

Welcome to this new blog that writer Katie de Moss was sweet enough to make me. Before I begin posting events and news, I thought I'd post a link to my blog at Art + Culture. I post about other events there rather than my own:
