La Poudre D'Escampette : La Véritable Histoire d'Albert, Employé du Gaz, Chanteur, Fou Voyageur
4 Taxis: Michel Aphesbero and Danielle Colomine
Bordeaux,
France
: 4 Taxis. 2004
La Poudre D'Escampette (meaning "to leave quickly"), tells the story of Albert, lead singer of the rock band Memory Stick, as he hops on a train leaving Bordeaux to meet people and see places that he will not remember afterwards. Like Jean-Albert Dadas, who travelled from his home in Bordeaux in the 1800s to explore Europe on foot, Albert suffers from dromomania, a psychological condition in which people spontaneously depart their routine, travel long distances, and take up different identities and occupations. Albert's story is told through photographs arranged in a comic book format by 4 Taxis' Michel Aphesbero and Danielle Colomine. With text exclusively in French.

Christopher Russell
San Francisco,
CA
: 2nd Floor Projects. 2010
The transcript to an audio tour of Darin Klein's childhood home, now transformed into a museum in tribute to the artist.

Juvenilia
Ole John Aandal
Oslo,
Norway
: Teknisk Industri. 2009
Juvenilia is a collection of photographic images originally taken by teenagers and uploaded to the Internet, where they caught the attention of artist Ole John Aandal. Printed as snapshot-sized color images, most have been enlarged, giving them a dreamlike blurriness or pixelation that suggests still images from television or film. As a group, they succinctly and poetically convey the short and incredibly fraught and fetishized liminality between child and adulthood. The images are accompanied by texts by Edy Poppy, Susan Bright, David Bate, Nathalie Herschdorfer, Eva Løveid Møster, and Ole John Aandal.

Hans Aarsman, Claudie De Cleen, Julian Germain, Erik Kessels, Hans Van Der Meer

The first volume of the wildly popular Useful Photography series is, in the words of the editors, "an ode to the photographers we don’t know by name, but whose work we all know by looking at it daily." Printed in full color, the book features images collected from catalogs, brochures, and magazines, with a focus on the absurd and banal, arranged in grids and sequences according to similarities, narratives and disjunctions.

Separate
Ryuta Abe
Kamakura,
Japan
: R. Abe. 2009
With Separate, photographer Ryuta Abe presents 28 examples of object pairs found in and around the streets of Japan. Garbage cans, elastic-waist pants hung out on a stairwell to dry, vending machines, and walking pairs of identically-dressed men and women help make up Abe's inventory of doubles, which is printed with gray-toned ink on ivory paper, giving his subjects a soft and slightly hazy effect.

Two Performances and Detour
Marina Abramovic, Ulay
Adelaide,
South Australia
: Experimental Art Foundation. 1979
This book documents two early performance pieces (1979) by Marina Abramovic and Ulay and a project called "Detour". In Performance 21, "The Brink," Ulay walks back and forth along the top of a wall while Marina walks back and forth on the shadow line of the wall as it falls on the ground. Black and white photographs document the 4 hour and 20 minute performance. In Performance 22, Ulay moves in response to commands "go...stop...back..." announced in an upredictable order by a strong voice and Marina sits still at the center of the space counting pieces of swandown out loud. Black and white photographs document the 1 hour and 30 minte performance. The project "Detour" is represented by eleven photographs of the Australian landscape with dramatizing descriptions on the facing pages that turn trees, boulders, grasses and plains into active participants in a narrative.

0 To 9 : The Complete Magazine : 1967-1969
Vito Acconci, Bernadette Mayer
Brooklyn,
NY
: Ugly Duckling Presse : Lost Literature Series. 2006
Self-published from 1967–1969 by Vito Acconci and Bernadette Mayer, 0 To 9 originally appeared in seven inexpensive, mimeographed, staple-bound issues that were sold for a dollar an issue. Although democratically conceived, the original issues ultimately were printed in small runs of between 100 and 350 copies. Very different from conventional art and poetry magazines from the period in terms of content, design and distribution, 0 To 9 consisted mostly of original, language or idea-based contributions by artists and poets, establishing a new kind of “dematerialized,” do-it-yourself exhibition context beyond the existing official gallery and magazine system.
Highly regarded, yet rarely seen, New York-based 0 To 9 gave a home to some of the most experimental and innovative artists and writers of its time—almost all of whose work consisted of experiments in language: Vito Acconci, Robert Barry, Ted Berrigan, Clark Coolidge, John Giorno, Dan Graham, Michael Heizer, Kenneth Koch, Sol LeWitt, Lee Lozano, Jackson Mac Low, Bernadette Mayer, Adrian Piper, Bern Porter, Yvonne Rainer, Jerome Rothenberg, Aram Saroyan, Robert Smithson, Alan Sondheim, Hannah Weiner, Lawrence Weiner, and Emmett Williams were among the more than seventy contributors.
