SUMMARY:Arcana Book Signing with LA Photographer Paul Mpagi Sepuya
DESCRIPTION:Join Arcana: Books on the Arts on Saturday\, November 2nd\, between 4:00 and 6:00 PM for a book signing and conversation between noted Los Angeles-based photographer Paul Mpagi Sepuya and art historian Gökcan Demirkazik to celebrate the publication of the brand new Aperture monograph Dark Room A-Z by Paul Mpagi Sepuya. \nIf you cannot attend and would like to order a signed copy to have shipped or to pick up at the shop\, please place your order below! \nORDER SIGNED COPY\nWe look forward to seeing you! \n“Paul Mpagi Sepuya reflects on the methodologies\, strategies\, and points of interest behind a single\, expansive body of work at a pivotal moment in his career. Sepuya’s photography is grounded in a collaborative\, rhizomatic approach to studio practice and portraiture. This volume unpacks his Dark Room series (2016–21)\, offering a deep dive into the thick network of references and the interconnected community of artists and subjects that Sepuya has interwoven throughout the images. The excavation and mapping of intellectual and artistic data points across the artist’s work is presented through three distinct ‘voices\,’ allowing for a comprehensive cross-referencing of conceptual categories. Each category is alphabetized and illuminated via new texts by curator and scholar Gökcan Demirkazik; selections from previously published texts about the work by critics\, colleagues\, and friends; quotations of other writers’ work that inspire the artist; along with writings by the artist on his thematic preoccupations as they appear and reappear throughout this ongoing body of work. Dark Room A–Z serves as an iterative return and exhaustive manual to the strategies and generative ways of working that have informed Sepuya’s image-making over the past two decades.” \nPaul Mpagi Sepuya is a Los Angeles–based artist. His work is held in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art\, Whitney Museum of American Art\, Guggenheim Museum\, and Studio Museum in Harlem\, New York; and the Museum of Contemporary Art\, Los Angeles\, among other institutions. Notable recent exhibitions include a solo survey at the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis\, a solo exhibition at Amsterdam’s Foam museum\, the 2019 Whitney Biennial\, and Being: New Photography 2018 at the Museum of Modern Art. \nGökcan Demirkazik is an art historian\, curator\, and critic\, and is currently a PhD student in art history at University of California\, Los Angeles. His writing has appeared in ArtAsiaPacific\, Artforum\, ArtReview\, di’van: A Journal of Accounts\, Even\, and Frieze. \nUpcoming Arcana Events \nSaturday\, November 9th\, 4:00 – 6:00 PM\nPatrick O’Dell: Epicly Later’d\nBook Signing \nSaturday\, November 16th\, 4:00 – 6:00 PM\nLorcan O’Herlihy + Greg Goldin: Building in Place\nBook signing + Discussion \nSaturday\, November 23rd\, 4:00 – 6:00 PM\nRyan McGinley: Yearbook\nBook Signing \nSaturday\, November 21st\, 4:00 – 6:00 PM\nHuggy Bear: Killed (Of Kids)\nBook Launch

SUMMARY:Arcana Book Signing with Architect Lorcan O'Herlihy and Historian Greg Goldin
DESCRIPTION:Join Arcana: Books on the Arts on Saturday\, November 16th between 4:00 and 6:00 PM for a book signing and conversation between noted Los Angeles-based architect Lorcan O’Herlihy and architectural historian (and co-author) Greg Goldin to celebrate the publication of the brand new Rizzoli  monograph Lorcan O’Herlihy Architects: Building In Place: Architecture Rooted in Context and Social Equity. \nIf you cannot attend and would like to order a signed copy to have shipped or to pick up at the shop\, please place your order below. \nORDER YOUR COPY\nWe look forward to seeing you! \nLorcan O’Herlihy\, FAIA\, Founding Principal\, Creative Director of LOHA\, seeks opportunities to engage with the ever-changing complexities of the urban landscape\, while embracing architecture as a catalyst of change. Since founding his firm in 1994\, his work has been guided by a conscious understanding that architecture operates within a layered context of political\, developmental\, environmental\, and social structures. With offices in Los Angeles and Detroit\, his firm has built over one hundred projects across three continents. The diverse work ranges from art galleries\, bus shelters\, and large-scale neighborhood studies\, to large mixed-use developments\, affordable housing projects\, and university residential complexes. Each project exhibits Lorcan’s belief that artistry and social connectivity are key to building vibrant spaces that elevate the human condition. \nGreg Goldin is the author most recently of An Atlas of Never Built Architecture. He was born and raised in Los Angeles\, living at first in suburbia\, next in the geographic center of the city in a neighborhood with two early Schindler houses and Gregory Ain’s Dunsmuir Apartments. Those buildings inspired his interest in architecture. After many years as a political reporter\, he jumped ship and became the Architecture Critic at Los Angeles Magazine\, a twelve-year stint that led to the book Never Built Los Angeles (Metropolis Books\, 2013) and the exhibition Never Built Los Angeles\, which premiered at the A+D Architecture and Design Museum\, Los Angeles\, in July 2013. He was the recipient of a coveted Getty Research Institute grant for Pacific Standard Time Presents: Modern Architecture in L.A. in 2011. He lives in Los Angeles with his wife and daughter\, where he continues to unearth untold architectural tales and unbuilt architectural projects.

SUMMARY:Arcana Celebrates the Book Launch by Legendary Band Huggy Bear
DESCRIPTION:Join Arcana: Books on the Arts on Saturday\, December 21st\, between 4:00 and 6:00 PM to celebrate Huggy Bear Killed (of Kids)\, the long-awaited (especially by a certain breed of punks) history and compilation of zines by the legendary\, seminal British riot grrrl band Huggy Bear. \nFrom the book’s editor\, Ethan Swan: “Huggy Bear existed from 1991 until 1994. Outcast and outraged\, they made a howling\, squalling mess of punk\, all the menace and freedom of flocking birds. The handful of records\, zines\, and memories that document this brief\, bonfire lifespan sketch a blueprint for how to be in the world\, for how to understand the forces of capitalism and patriarchy and capitulation and still resist. Huggy Bear was a group that let things be complicated\, that considered themselves complicit\, but never took that as a reason to surrender. There’s no band more important. Killed (of Kids) is a book by the five members of Huggy Bear. It reproduces all seven zines made by the band during their lifespan alongside photos\, correspondence\, flyers\, and ephemera from their three-year existence. This archive is joined by new text drawn from two years of interviews with the band members\, carefully assembled into an extensive dialogue about intention\, surprise\, distress\, encouragement.” \nArcana heartily agrees with all of the above. Please join them in taking a break from holiday chaos to celebrate the ageless spirit of “boy-girl revolution\,” as Huggy Bear put it. The holiday cheer at this gathering is generously supported by Arcana’s friends at Open Beer and Las Jaras Wines. \nSee you then! If you can’t make it but would like to purchase a copy of the book\, you may do so below. \nPURCHASE BOOK
