PUBLICATIONS BY AUTHOR

Carey Young, Incorporated
Alex Farquharson, John Kelsey and Jeremy Millar. Collaborative text by Carey Young and Liam Gillick. Introduction by Steven Bode
Carey Young, Incorporated
ISBN  0 9538634 6 8
PRICE  £9.95

The first publication devoted to the work of Carey Young, an emerging artist whose work provocatively and playfully questions familiar notions of art as a mode of resistance and critique in a world of dissolving boundaries, in which the borders between politics, culture and business seem to have disappeared. Having worked within business for several years, Young presents the role of the artist potentially to be that of an infiltrator within the inner world of the multinational, adopting its language, codes and tools, as well as its tactics of disappearance, in order to offer an insider's perspective on to the formation and control of mass culture.

It Could Happen to You - A K Dolven
Steven Bode and Michael Glasmeier. Interview by Ele Carpenter
It Could Happen to You - A K Dolven
ISBN  0 9538634 5 x
PRICE  £11.95

'It Could Happen to You' is the first English-language publication dedicated to the work of Norwegian artist Anne Katrine Dolven and catalogues five film and video 'portraits' produced between 2000 and 2001. While alluding to paintings by the Norwegian master Edvard Munch, Dolven also adds recognisably contemporary elements to her treatment of landscape and still life. This compact and elegant hardback publication is illustrated in colour throughout with a selection of documentation shots, details from the works and production stills. It was produced to accompany the staging of Dolven's film 'It Could Happen to You' at the Northern Gallery for Contemporary Art in June and July 2001.
     
Remote Viewer - Graham Gussin

Remote Viewer - Graham Gussin
ISBN  0 95386 349 2
PRICE  £9.95

In September 2001, the artist Graham Gussin undertook a journey to a place called Askja, in what is known as the 'lunar desert' of Iceland. As Gussin was traveling through this remote and featureless but strangely beautiful landscape, a remote viewer - an individual with paranormal abilities who has been trained to see over great distances - was asked to track his movements and pinpoint his location. This publication provides a further document of the project, featuring film stills, installation photographs, and other behind-the-scenes material.
