Barry McGee - Fuzz Gathering (Second Printing)

$ 28.00

Softcover, 144 pages, 4.3 x 6.3 inches.

This zine by Barry McGee gathers a number of his own photographs, collages, and drawings to create a unique visual language composed of geometrical patterns and recurring symbols. It was published on the occasion of his exhibition towards the end of 2021 at the Perrotin Gallery in Paris. Born and educated in San Francisco, McGee produces works that are candid and insightful observations of modern society, but always with an emphasis on contributing to marginalised communities. He is associated with the Mission School, which emerged in the early 1990s and is primarily influenced by urban realism, graffiti, and American folk art, with a focus on social activism.

20 km/h - Woshibai

$ 29.95

Softcover, 376 pages, 5.3 x 7.1 inches.

A slow-motion drive-by view of a collapsing universe meant to sit in the palm of your hand 

How fast can you go in a buggy drawn by the flap of a butterfly’s wings? How do you measure the speed of waking from a dream? Such abstract inquiries into the unrelenting absurdity of contemporary life make up this omnibus of meditative vignettes from one of mainland China’s most prolific and recognizable—yet anonymous—new underground cartoonists of the current generation.

Every story in 20 km/h toes the line between pun and poetry, and lands somewhere just short of a zen koan: come back to it as often as you like, it will never quite read the same way twice. A nondescript figure awakes from an assembly line of identically-fashioned companions and boards a rowboat destined for the unknown. A man holds the key to sleep in his hand and uses it to disappear into his mattress. The moon is plucked from the sky and fed into a vending machine for a can of soda.

Woshibai’s minimalist renderings are a startlingly delightful cocktail of existential dread and silent slapstick that arrest the mind’s eye with equal parts humor and grace.

Why Circles?

Circles are the simplest shape for our eyes and brain to understand. When faced with a swathe of circles, we're not as overwhelmed by the information. It's easy to look at, and easy to read. 

Neighborhoods don't have corners: When you're in-between three different neighborhoods, which neighborhood are you in? There are no-man's lands all over a city. 

Not only do circles create a contained space, but they also imply entire worldliness. In old times, a village was often mapped in a circle, which was probably the whole world to its inhabitants. 

Choose your preferred city.
