Free Shit – ANP Quarterly #9

Published on January 19, 2008 0 Comments

Atten-shun! A new issue of the uber-hip, full color, giant-sized visual arts extravaganza known as the ANP Quarterly dropped into Quimby’s the other day. Coming out of RVCA and edited by Ed Templeton, the ANP  is easily one of the best visual arts zines kicking around today. The best part about it is the price: it’s totally free.  This issue has Harmony Korine and Yoda on the cover. Also featured are Tomoo Gokita, Leigh Ledare, Uta Barth, and Ashley Macomber, among others.  Be sure to come by and pick up a copy if you’re in the hood.

Brian’s tip top tap of 2007

Published on January 12, 2008 1 Comment

Shout-outs to a few of the books and events which shaded my glassy eyes throughout 2007.
Novel of Roy Orbison In Cling-film, by Ulrich Haarbürste (Serapion Books)

I can totally see this book at home in some ruined castle in Lacoste.. Or Master Shake reading it in an episode of Aqua Teen Hunger Force. Either way, books such as Roy Orbison Wrapped In Cling-film are the reason why Quimby’s Bookstore is so great in the first place. Ja und was sonst?
