NDSFBQ Available Today at Noon ET!

I am extremely excited to announce the release of NDFBSQ, available now in the store.

NDFSBQ contains the most comprehensive available documentation of the current state of subway trackside graffiti in South Brooklyn, featuring over 260 photos on 108 pages. The book is the result of many months of shooting, research and countless subway rides and a must-have for fans of real NYC graffiti.

Perfect bound, large format, full color. First edition limited to 200 hand-numbered copies.

Carnage Issue 9 Featuring Lush

Carnage Issue 9 features an exclusive collection of instant photo portraits by Australian graffiti writer Lush. 

From his experiments with throw-ups, drawings, animation and artwork hidden in plain view in stores to his international box truck painting tour and frequent send-offs of graffiti conventions, Lush's work has been driven by the urge to go beyond the square cage of Instagram fame in order to create real-world interactions. 

The photos in this issue aren't intended to shock or provoke, but rather to bring fun and playfulness to graffiti and to turn static portraits into creative interactions. Lush's girls don't just pose for the camera, they are active participants, painting walls and frequently each other with Lush's word. The models are thus taking ownership of the moment, turning what might have been just another series of graffiti photos into engaging and enthralling portraits.

Full color, perfect-bound, 52 pages. Issue 9 is limited to 450 hand-numbered copies. Each copy comes with a set of Lush vinyl stickers and, while supplies last, Lush condoms and b/w photo stickers. A selection of the original photos, many featured in issue 9, will be available for sale separately.

Issue 9 will be available at the Brooklyn Zine Fest on Sunday, April 26 and in our store on Monday, April 27 at noon EST.

Carnage Issue 8 is a collaboration with graffiti writer, artist and illustrator Curve. Box trucks have come to take the place of subway cars in New York as moving canvases for graffiti writers that allow their work to travel across the city. Curve explores the theme of box trucks in the form of photos of painted trucks, drawings, illustrations and a series of comic strips created exclusively for this issue. The zine also comes with a cut-and-fold Curve box truck model, a custom ultra flat black truck air freshener, a set of vinyl stickers and a handwritten Curve sticker. Issue 8 is limited to 500 numbered copies with screenprinted front and back covers. Large format, full color, perfect-bound, 52 pages.

Also available: A limited run of Curve T-shirts. Out next week: An exclusive 18x24” hand-finished Curve screenprint in an edition of only 45.

Drink Whiskey All Day and Climb Trees at Night is a new collection of photos by legendary San Francisco photographer Dave Schubert. For decades Schubert has immersed himself in documenting his friends and contemporaries and the work they left behind on walls, shutters, trucks and buses. This zine features a representative cross section of some of the best of Schubert’s work, including portraits, street photography, classic Bay Area graffiti and action shots of artists like MQ, Sace (RIP) and others. Edition of 200 with a screenprinted cover. 5.5x8.5”, 52 pages.

September 12, by Ray Mock, is a collage zine composed of newspaper headlines from New York-area papers from September 12, 2014. The headlines have been juxtaposed, truncated and re-combined, forming a mosaic of current events that allows viewers to come up with their own reading and interpretation of the narratives that occupy our public discussion thirteen years after 9/11. Edition of only 35 with a screenprinted cover. 5.5x8.5”, 20 pages.

Also available at the NY Art Book Fair from Carnage, EKG Labs and friends:
