SUMMARY:Book Signing + Discussion with Gus Van Sant
DESCRIPTION:Please join Arcana: Books on the Arts on Saturday\, February 28th between 4:00 and 6:00 PM as they welcome Gus Van Sant to celebrate his beautiful new book Paintings. A conversation between Mr. Van Sant and editor Leah Gudmundson will be followed by a signing. \nThis first ever published monograph on Van Sant’s paintings gathers together a wide overview of his practice. Sequenced in an achronological and associative manner\, the book presents different series in surprising rhythms\, focusing on recurring motifs and themes throughout widely varied modes accumulated during decades of work. \nBound inside out\, this hardcover publication has a unique objecthood that imparts the suggestion of having been intimately handled by its makers. The outside covers feature two test screen-prints and is signed and stamped on the back\, alluding to Van Sant’s painting practice as literally the flipside of his storied career in filmmaking. \nPaintings is the inaugural title from Blue Moon Press\, the new artist-book imprint founded by Leah Gudmundson as a cousin to the Paris-based subcultural arts magazine Blue Moon she has helmed since 2015. \nPlease Note:\n* No RSVP is required.\n* Books will be available for sale at $85 plus sales tax beginning at 3:00 PM on the 28th and will be kept to one per person. Arcana will not be offering pre-sales on this limited item.\n* If you cannot attend and would like a signed copy of Paintings\, please send Arcana an email. Should there be copies remaining after the event\, they will fulfill requests in the order in which they have been received.
