Samma Valve Ring, Style A
Price: $ 125 USDOne piece, but with a stacked look. Very good in multiples. 1" long.
Samma
Samma Wavy Chain Necklace
Price: $ 269 USDThis one is really intriguing. So it has this unusual woven and wavy characteristic, so the shape itself is very eye-catching. But its simplicity is made even more evident because of its simultaneous elegance and weird reference to a RUN-DMC-like neck chain. We are fans. 22" long laid out; 11" long as worn.

Specter Press
Sasa [44] Annual Report 2012
Price: $ 9 USDSpecter Press makes and publishes books on, for, and by artists. Designers Sulki and Min Choi have managed to retain an aura of mystery, balancing institutional work with more elusive projects. File under: Puzzling, South Korea, Impossible To Find, Rare, Making You Cry.
The Korea-based conceptual artist compiles annual reports of his activities, purchases, and general living. An on-going archival project that takes a different form in each volume. He didn't eat/spend as much this year. What might we glean from the paucity of receipts, and from the blurred type throughout? (No, you're not imagining that the thing is soft and impossible to see in these images. Also in real life, not as bad, but it's blurry.) One way of looking at what makes up a life. Edition of 100.

Saturday Night Live
Saturday Night Live
Price: $ 12 USDWARNING: ONE OF THESE IMAGES IS BLURRY BUT IT DOESN'T HAVE ANY INFORMATION ON IT SO WE REQUEST YOU USE YOUR IMAGINATION.
This edition covers the first two seasons of Saturday Night Live, with a cast consisting of Dan Aykroyd, John Belushi, Chevy Chase, George Coe, Jane Curtin, Garrett Morris, Bill Murray, Laraine Newman, Michael O'Donoghue, and Gilda Radner. Featuring interviews, scripts, photos, and ephemera.
These books were made to give the show a life outside the screen. In the 1970s, consumer-recording devices didn't exist, so if you missed a show you missed a show. No re-runs. One vital element is the way in which the collective energies of humor, performance, sound, music, and set design come together and is translated from a live format to a still or flat one. The books are also important examples of how documents or support publications relate to an existing institution, but can exist independently in its own form.

Anne-mie Van Kerckhoven
Serving Compressed Energy With Vacuum
Price: $ 23 USDPublished in conjunction with an exhibition at Kunstverein München, this catalogue is presented as an integral part of the show, augmenting it through the presentation of subjects, aspects, and themes which are better suited to the printed medium or demand another kind of involvement. Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven’s works involve painting, drawing, digital media, and video, and reflect her fascination from a female point of view with the representation of women in mass media, the connections between sex and technology, different knowledge systems, and the unconscious. Besides numerous works, projects, and images, the book includes insightful explanations by the artist.

Seth Siegelaub
Seth Siegelaub Beyond Conceptual Art
Price: $ 60 USDCurator, writer and dealer Seth Siegelaub (1941–2013) is legendary for his promotion of Conceptual art in New York in the 1960s and ‘70s. Acknowledging the unusual scope and essentially unclassifiable nature of his manifold interests and activities, this volume shows how Siegelaub’s projects and collections are underpinned by a deeper concern with printed matter and lists as ways of disseminating ideas. The book’s chapters explore the various facets of and connections in Siegelaub’s work, from his groundbreaking projects with Conceptual artists and his research and publications on mass media and communications theories to his interest in handwoven textiles and non-Western fabrics.
It also highlights his collecting activity, which culminates in a unique ensemble of books on the social history of textiles and a textile collection comprising over 750 items from around the world. The survey also reflects on current practices through contributions by contemporary artists, such as Mario Garcia Torres and writer Alan Page, who co-created a new work inspired by Siegelaub’s bibliographic project on time and causality. With essays by art historians and curators, a previously unpublished conversation between Siegelaub and artist Robert Horvit and an annotated chronology, this comprehensive survey pays homage to one of the most distinctive characters in 20th-century exhibition-making.

Lutz Bacher
Snow
Price: $ 45 USDEver since her career began in the 1970s, this Bay Area artist has drawn upon fragmentary information from popular culture and her own life to produce works that play with the instability of identity and the all-around trickiness of images. In artist’s books, installations, sculptures, videos, photographs, paintings, and screen prints, Bacher uses images and objects in a physical, visceral manner. Bacher’s mixture of bodies and ideas, pop and personal, while always remaining somehow elusive, feels entirely relevant to problems in art and life now. In this publication, she has compiled her work from 1975 to 2013 into a hefty volume of seemingly digital files from an inventory. It is accompanied by a new essay by Caoimhín Mac Giolla Léith. Eds. Gregor Muir, Sophie von Offers, Beatrix Ruf.
