Billy Apple was created in 1962 as a work by the New Zealand-born artist Barrie Bates, who changed his name to become a living brand after graduating from London’s Royal College of Art. For this volume, four writers combine to discuss the brand, providing a chronology, a contextualization of Apple’s practice within institutional critique and his enduring significance for younger generations.

Traducing Ruddle is the fifth in a series of “fake” newspapers by Dutch artist Mark Manders. Using a nonsensical combination of English words,
Traducing Ruddle creates a pretense of legibility that dissolves upon closer inspection. The newspaper is supplemented by
Two Connected Houses, a 48 page insert developed in conjunction with the exhibition
Contemplating the Void: Interventions in the Guggenheim Museum.
Sheets from Manders’ Traducing Ruddle form the central element of the artist’s Window with Fake Newspapers project, a site-specific public work on view through March 28th.

In 1978 (and until 1993),
Midwifery was against the law in the State of California. Women wanting to have natural childbirth at home were literally forced underground — many Midwives circumvented this law by practicing as licensed Chiropractors or under the license of a Chiropractor. This pamphlet is ephemera from that era (1967-1993):
Mental Attitude Also Important
Your mental attitude during pregnancy should be considered, too. A bright outlook on life can help make these nine months a pleasure rather than a burden. Good common sense tells us that a woman free of pain, at ease and relaxed, concious that every necessary measure is being taken for the welfare of both herself and her child, will naturally have a better mental attitude than the woman who is afraid of suffering. Chiropractic care can help you achieve this assurance and, therefore, have a cheerful mental attitude.

Before Things Change is a small insight into Seth Fluker’s undesirable occupation at Whole Foods Market Soho. Each image slowly evolved and quickly disappeared within his workspace while washing grimy kitchen utensils and haphazardly disposing customer waste. Through the sequencing of this edition, Seth aimed to represent the ever-changing emotions he felt during each shift.

Bernadette Corporation: three people in New York City (today, 1999, or 2000) working together on a new fashion magazine called Made In USA and making art. We came from different backgrounds, but we had something in common: we wanted to change the world because we didn’t like the way it was.
The first issue of Made in USA is devoted to how people create their own spaces, spaces that can be invisible or imaginary. You may have heard this trend called DIY (do-it-yourself) or Amateurism. We like to call it the EMPTY WIDE SPACE trend, a place we can all disappear to, instead of being anti-everything and writing the new manifesto, or instead of being pro-everything and buying the latest CD.

Joanna Warsza, Stadium X — A Place That Never Was
Softcover, 128 pp., offset 4/1, 135 x 195 mm
Edition of 500
ISBN 978-83-925107-6-5
Published by Laura Palmer Foundation
$20.00 ·
A mix of Socialist mausoleum, Aztec temple, and bunker system with a network of small gardens, along with a grid structure of endless market stalls — here is one of possible pictures of Socialist Realist ruin –- the 10th-Anniversary Stadium and the Jarmark Europa open-air market surounding it. After twenty years of a phantom-like existence in the middle of Warsaw, this expanse in 2008 became the construction site of a new national stadium. The book offers a selection of texts present ing a multi-faceted picture of that site’s deterioration and its bizarre existence as a ‘city within a city’. It pictures the area as a Land-Art piece and picturesque ruin, a primeval forest, a realm of precariousness and discount shopping, a work camp for archaeologists and botanists, a ‘Vietnamtown,’ a sonic phenomenon or architectural splendor. The reader also documents the series of site-specific art projects entitled The Finis sage of Stadium X curated by Joanna Warsza and provides them with a theoretical context.
The Stadium was built in 1955 from the rubble of a war-devastated, and was to preserve Communism’s good name for forty years. In the early 1990s it fell into ruin, being at the same time ‘revived’ by Vietnamese intelligentsia-cum-vendors and Russian traders, pioneers of capitalism. Jarmark Europa suddenly became the only multicultural site in the city, a storehouse of biographies and urban legends, as well as a major tourist attraction. The heterotopic logic of the place and its long-standing (non)presence in the middle of Warsaw brought about the series of art projects, and later this reader.
Over the course of time, the 10-th Anniversary Stadium which is now being erased form the map of Warsaw will likely become some distant planet, while the present publication, with the brilliant contributions from its authors, will attain — perhaps — the status of an unreal story about a place that, after all, never was.
