NY ART BOOK FAIR


Spent Saturday and Sunday at the NY Art Book Fair at Phillips auction house in Chelsea. I drooled my way around, booth by booth, checking out an amazing amount of art books, magazines, zines and prints. It reminded me of going to comic book conventions in the city when I was a kid..totally overwhelming to the point where you just freeze up. I did manage to track down pieces by two of my favorite artists, Raymond Pettibon and Richard Prince. New Pettibon zine, THE MAJOR ARTERIES, and a 6 page photo zine called 3RD PLACE, by Prince (6 pages never hurt so much, but it was the cheapest Richard Prince item available.) Awesome event.
