SUMMARY:Arcana Books Hosts a day of Art + Salad with Julia Sherman and Evan Kleiman
DESCRIPTION:Free\nOn Sunday\, June 4th from 3 to 5 PM\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts for this extra special event celebrating the publication of Julia Sherman’s fantastic new Abrams book: Salad For President! \nQ + A between Ms. Sherman and Evan Kleiman will begin around 3:30\, concurrent with the nude figure and vegetable life drawing. Listen\, sketch from life\, snack on Sherman’s Mexican Fruit Salad (recipe from the book!) and raise a glass! Bring your own art supplies or use the charcoal and newsprint provided by Arcana.\n \nThe creator of the immensely popular Salad for President blog presents a visually rich collection of more than 75 salad recipes\, with contributions and interviews by artists/creative professionals like William Wegman\, Tauba Auerbach\, Laurie Anderson\, and Alice Waters. Sherman loves salad\, and she encourages her readers to consider it an everyday indulgence that can include cocktails\, soups\, family style brunch dishes\, and dinner-party entrées. \nSalad—with its infinite possibilities—is a game of endless combinations\, not stifling rules. And with that in mind\, Salad for President offers a window into how artists approach preparing their favorite dishes. Sherman visits sculptors\, painters\, photographers\, and musicians in their homes and gardens\, interviewing and photographing them as they cook. Utterly unique in its look into the worlds of food\, art\, and everyday practices\, Salad for President is at once a practical resource for healthy\, satisfying recipes and an inspiring look at creativity.

SUMMARY:Arcana Books Welcomes Tabitha Soren for a Talk + Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Free\nOn Saturday\, April 29th between 4:00 and 6:00 PM\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts in celebrating the publication of Tabitha Soren’s thought-provoking monograph FANTASY LIFE : BASEBALL AND THE AMERICAN DREAM. A talk and presentation by the photographer will begin at 4:30. \nIn 2002\, Tabitha Soren first began photographing a group of twenty-one minor league draft picks for the Oakland A’s – young men coming into the major league farm system straight from high school or college. For the past fifteen years\, she has followed these players through their baseball lives spending time on farm teams waiting to get called up to The Show\, with frequent trades\, big breaks\, broken hearts\, day jobs\, long bus trips\, injuries\, waiting around\, calling plays from the dugout\, gum and tobacco chewing\, praying\, bonding\, and aging. It turns out\, getting drafted isn’t the same as making the team\, making the team isn’t the same as playing\, playing isn’t the same thing as a star turn or a star’s paycheck\, and getting paid isn’t the same as having a secure future for when you retire in your early thirties. \nThis project examines meritocracy’s myths and the precariousness of a person’s fate when it hangs by the thread of perpetual self-perfection. In Fantasy Life’s case\, it is professional baseball players who are in that position. But that feeling is not limited to athletes in America. The United States is a striving culture unlike any other. Some of the subjects\, like Nick Swisher and Joe Blanton\, have gone on to become well-known\, respected players at the highest level of the game. Some left baseball to pursue other lines of work such as selling insurance\, and coal mining. Others have struggled with poverty and even homelessness. \nFantasy Life portrays a selection of these decade-plus stories\, gathering together a richly textured series of photographs taken on the field and behind the scenes at games\, along with commentaries by each of the players and memorabilia from their lives from kindergarten-age baseball cards to x-rays of career injuries. It includes a five part short story by noted author Dave Eggers about a fictional minor leaguer that compellingly condenses the roller-coaster ride of the farm team everyman\, from youthful pursuit of stardom through the slog of endless hardscrabble games\, to that moment of realization that success may not be just around the corner after all. Additionally\, ten players from the project have contributed essays for the book about their experiences with success and failure – and how they had to piece together a new identity after their professional sports careers.

SUMMARY:Arcana Books Hosts a Celebration for Photographer Lenard Smith
DESCRIPTION:Free\nOn Saturday\, April 15th between 4:00 and 6:00 PM\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts as they welcome their friend Lenard Smith to celebrate his lovely new limited edition\, nearly-sold-out survey of recent work: A Sort Of Looking. \nSmith’s first publication presents a selection of seductive images from the past five years of work that draw lines connecting the artist’s hand and chance. The formal compositions of his still lifes bring attention to the banal object form; tissue paper\, flower\, and in between the exploration of sculptural arrangements. Smith’s portrait work commands attention – bringing the viewer up close up to his subjects – whether they are photographed in the studio or quickly on the streets. These powerful portraits act as a metronome throughout the entire book\, grounding the audience. The title reveals the artist’s engagement with institutional critique\, and plays with the discourse that is commonly used in art conversations. A Sort of Looking is in fact Lenard Smith’s own looking\, and not a “sort of”\, but exactly how he is able to view the world in front of his lens just as he sees it.\n     \n  \n

SUMMARY:Arcana Hosts A Special Workshop With Christina Kim
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday\, January 8th at 11:30AM\, please join us at Arcana: Books on the Arts for a special workshop with Christina Kim to learn to make yo-yo puffs! \nA yo-yo puff is a circle of fabric gathered around its edges into a “puff” used for embellishing quilts and clothing. First\, a circle is drawn on a piece of cloth\, cut out\, and stitched with thread around the outside of the folded edge while turning a tiny hem as you go. The thread is pulled\, gathering the fabric into a puff\, then knotted. A traditional form of recycling thought to date back centuries\, yo-yo or Suffolk puffs\, as they are sometimes called in England\, are best known in the United States for their use in Depression-era quilting practice. \nChristina attempted her first yo-yo puffs creation\, a coverlet\, in high school by following instructions in an issue of Seventeen magazine. For a project in 2013 evoking the transformation of winter to spring\, 10\,000 puffs dip-dyed and hand-painted in subtle gradients of sky\, snow\, and cherry blossom colors were made for an 18 window installation in Tokyo. The technique was incorporated into the dosa Traveler 2013 collection. \n$55.00 includes materials and a rare small-group workshop with Christina Kim. \nBook your place in advance (by calling Whitney at 310-458-1499 or writing to books@arcanabooks.com)\, or “at the door” on Sunday morning.

SUMMARY:Arcana Books Hosts A Book Signing With Marc Appleton & Melba Levick
DESCRIPTION:Free\nOn Sunday\, December 18th from 4 to 6 PM\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts for a book signing  and celebration of Ranches: Home on the Range in California with author Marc Appleton and photographer Melba Levick. \nThe lure of the West has been strong in American history\, representing the promise of beautiful\, wild landscapes\, broad vistas\, clean air\, and bright skies. On this magnificent land are the romantic and intriguing homes set in the idyllic landscapes of the great California ranches. From the one hundred and fifty year-old Rancho Camulos of “Ramona” fame to Jack London’s Beauty Ranch on the slopes of Sonoma Mountain to the working ranches of today\, Ranches: Home on the Range in California presents an expression of a lifestyle steeped in self-sufficiency\, love of the land\, and lack of pretense. Arising from the tradition of the Mexican land-grant ranchos and the spread of Spanish Catholic missions\, the ranches of California have a long and multifaceted history which is examined by author Marc Appleton – who himself can attest to the challenges and charms of ranch life. Located in dramatic landscapes of rolling hills\, upon the sides of mountains\, or in vast plains bordered by snow-capped mountains\, the featured homes are exquisitely captured by renowned architectural photographer Melba Levick. At once a tribute to a historic form and a fading way of life\, as well as a celebration of renewal\, architectural beauty\, and the romance of the West\, this beautiful and authoritative book offers the reader an immersive experience of living on the land.

SUMMARY:Arcana Books Hosts a Special Installation With Christina Kim
DESCRIPTION:Free\nPlease join Arcana: Books on the Arts on Friday\, December 16th from 6 to 8PM\, to celebrate Christina Kim’s publication of dosa glossary along with a special month-long installation inside their store. \nChristina Kim is a Los Angeles-based designer who is the co-founder of dosa. Textiles play a central role in her design practice\, which ranges from housewares and clothing to temporary installations and architectural projects. This year\, she has created a public art piece for the APAP5 art triennial in Anyang\, Korea\, a four-month installation at the Museo Textil de Oaxaca in Mexico\, and collaborated with architect Peter Zumthor for the Venice Architecture Biennale. Her work is currently on display as part of the three-person “Scraps: Fashion\, Textiles and Creative Reuse” exhibition at New York’s  Cooper Hewitt\, Smithsonian Design Museum. \ndosa glossary is a beautiful one hundred and eight page gazette designed by Christina with Green Dragon Office of Los Angeles and printed by Sankei Shinbun in Tokyo. With one hundred and four entries\, it is a “collection of techniques\, textiles\, people and organizations involved with dosa\, past and present. Information is based on our notes from the field – insights gained working side by side with artisans\, knowledge shared with us firsthand and reference material from books picked up along our travels.” \nChristina will sign this limited edition piece at Arcana the night of the opening.  Her accompanying site-specific installation is a visual and sometimes tactile reflection of the entries and concepts illustrated in the glossary that will be a magical and playful environment in which to discover dosa from a to z and the creative connections\, both carefully considered and wondrously serendipitous\, that it inspires.

SUMMARY:Arcana Hosts A Book Signing with Jeff Gold
DESCRIPTION:Free\nOn Saturday\, November 19th from 5:00 to 7:00PM\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts for the celebration of the publication of Total Chaos: The Story Of The Stooges / As Told By Iggy Pop\, meet their longtime pal Jeff Gold\, quaff refreshments\, and see an extraordinary one-day-only exhibition of rare Stooges memorabilia. \nAuthor Jeff Gold and contributor Johan Kugelberg – noted music historians and collectors both – spent two days with Iggy Pop at his Miami home\, sharing with him their extensive Stooges collection and interviewing the legendary singer. Pop’s candid\, bare-all responses left them with the almost unbelievable tale of the band he founded as a teenager in Michigan nearly fifty years ago. It is the alternately tragic and triumphant story of a group who rose from youth\, fell prey to drugs\, alcohol\, and music biz realities\, collapsed\, and nearly thirty years later reformed to record and tour once again to great acclaim. In 2010 The Stooges\, credited with having invented punk rock\, were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Their continuing influence can be felt today in the shape and sound of rock ‘n’ roll music. \nJeff Gold\, Johan Kugelberg\, and editor / contributor Jon Savage are among the most respected music authors and historians working today. Their efforts include numerous acclaimed and best-selling books and a Grammy Award. Published by Third Man Books\, Total Chaos stands as a work for all fans of the band and rock music to draw inspiration from. Including an absolute treasure-trove of rare and unseen photographs\, it is a metallic k.o. of only the best kind that shows AND tells the story of The Stooges.

SUMMARY:Arcana Books Hosts A Shindig For The Ice Plant's 10th Anniversary
DESCRIPTION:Free\nOn Saturday\, November 12th from 5:00 to 7:00PM\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts for The Ice Plant’s 10th Anniversary Party. The evening’s celebration will feature book signings for ED PANAR: Animals That Saw Me Volume Two and MIKE SLACK: Walking In Place 1 – New Orleans\, with special appearances by many of The Ice Plant’s own authors and artists\, including Ron Jude\, Bettina Hubby\, Michael Schmelling\, Seth Lower\, Antoine Wilson\, and Melissa Catanese – plus Margaritas (Mike’s own mix) and the accordion stylings of Arcana’s Erin Schneider! \nThe Ice Plant began producing artist books in 2006\, and has been publishing significant illustrated and photography books and other fine printed matter for the following decade. The dynamic duo behind the press – Tricia Gabriel and Mike Slack – would like to thank all their artists and loyal customers for making these ten years possible. \nED PANAR: Animals That Saw Me: Volume Two – The sequel – at last! Pairing a selection of new work and newly discovered gems from Ed Panar’s vast archive with an original essay on “being seen” by philosopher Timothy Morton\, this volume digs deeper into the question: “Why do we assume that it’s only us who does the looking?” \nMIKE SLACK: Walking in Place 1: New Orleans – Co-published in an edition of six hundred copies with Perimeter Editions\, Melbourne\, this is the first in Mike Slack’s new series of standalone volumes; each a pocket-sized ‘ambient travelogue’ of a particular geographic (or ‘psychogeographic’) location. This installment intermingles local fauna\, architectural details\, curious street cats\, and urban ephemera\, all skewed toward the sublime in the peculiar sunlight of New Orleans.

SUMMARY:Arcana Hosts A Book Launch With Molly Schiot
DESCRIPTION:Free\nOn Saturday\, October 22nd from 5 to 7PM\, Please join Arcana: Books on the Arts for the book launch of Game Changers: The Unsung Heroines of Sports History by Molly Schiot. \nTwo years ago\, filmmaker Molly Schiot began the Instagram account @TheUnsungHeroines – posting a photograph each day of a female athlete who had changed the face of sports around the globe in the pre-Title IX era. These women paved the way for the likes of Serena Williams\, Carli Lloyd\, and Lindsey Vonn\, yet few today know who they are. The account gained a devoted following\, and the result is Game Changers: The Unsung Heroines of Sports History\, a beautifully illustrated collection of these trailblazers’ rarely-before-seen photos and stories. \nFeaturing icons Althea Gibson and Wyomia Tyus\, unknowns Trudy Beck and Conchita Cintron\, policymaker Margaret Dunkle\, sportswriter Lisa Olson\, and many more\, Game Changers gives these “founding mothers” the overdue recognition they richly deserve. The book also features critical conversations between past and present game changers such as former US Women’s National Soccer Team captain Abby Wambach and SportsCenter anchor Cari Champion about what it means to be a woman on and off the field. Inspiring\, empowering\, and unforgettable\, Game Changers is perfect for anyone with a love of the game. \nJoining Ms. Schiot at Arcana will be several of the athletes featured in the book along with Pro Table Tennis champion Kim Gilbert\, who will be bringing a table and demonstrating some tricks of the trade. And\, only those buying a book at the event will additionally receive a copy of the rad\, limited edition poster of pioneering skateboarder Laura Thornhill!

SUMMARY:Arcana Partners With LA Forum For Architecture And Verso Books For A Book Signing + Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Free\nOn Saturday\, October 15th from 4 to 6PM\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts as they welcome The LA Forum for Architecture and Urban Design in partnership with Verso Books to present a conversation about the history of the US / Mexico border and the militarization of border walls around the world on the occasion of the launch of Reece Jones’ Violent Borders: Refugees and the Right to Move. Jones\, an expert on international border security projects and a geographer at the University of Hawaii\, will discuss his book with architect Rene Peralta. \nViolent Borders breaks down the contradictions of living in a globalized world that simultaneously attempts to limit the free movement of people. Jones travels the border regions of the world\, documenting the billions of dollars spent on border security projects\, and their dire consequences for the majority of the people in the world. While the poor are restricted by the lottery of birth to slums and the aftershocks of decolonization\, the wealthy travel freely\, exploiting pools of cheap labor and lax environmental regulations. \nThe US / Mexico border – a major focus of the book – is a perfect example of the global hardening of borders. Over the past thirty years\, many borders have been transformed into militarized security spaces through increased funding\, deployments of additional guards\, and construction of walls and surveillance infrastructure. While two-thirds of the border with Mexico remains unfenced\, the federal fences are products of the relatively recent 2006 Secure Fence Act\, and the Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump’s call to build a wall on the remaining section of the border has been a major issue of the presidential election. Jones will make the case that borders are not the answer to our problems\, and end on a simple\, yet important idea: borders need not be a natural part of the human world. \nReece Jones is a Professor of Geography at the University of Hawaii in Manoa\, and the author of Border Walls\, published by Zed Books in 2013. He is an award-winning scholar whose work has been featured in Time Magazine\, The Economist\, and Vice who is often called on to comment on border crises by publications such as the New York Times. \nRene Peralta is the co-founder of the Tijuana-based architectural firm Generica as well as the Director of the Architecture\, Landscape + Urbanism program at the Woodbury University School of Architecture in San Diego. His recent work has been directed toward the research of social and cultural forms of urban border between the cities of Tijuana\, Mexico and San Diego\, California.

Challenging himself by adopting new formats and subject matter\, moving from black and white to color\, from 35mm to large-format cameras\, and from the human figure to landscapes to abstracted detail\, he has produced an unusually varied body of work united by its arresting beauty and subtle engagement with social issues. At first largely unaware of the formal traditions of the medium\, Hernandez developed his own style of street photography\, one uniquely attuned to the desolate allure and sprawling expanses of LA. \nPublished in conjunction with the photographer’s major career-spanning retrospective at SFMoMA\, Anthony Hernandez is a beautifully designed and printed hardbound catalogue featuring an introduction by Robert Adams\, texts by Erin O’Toole\, Ralph Rugoff\, Lewis Baltz\, and Anthony Hernandez\, and an extensive selection of images – including many that have until now never been exhibited or published. It represents the full range and breadth of Hernandez’ work tracing his evolution as well as highlighting continuities across his practice. \nSnacks and refreshments will be provided.

SUMMARY:Arcana Books Hosts A Book Signing With Randi Malkin Steinberger
DESCRIPTION:Free\nOn Saturday\, October 1st from 4 to 6PM\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts for a book signing of No Circus by photographer Randi Malkin Steinberger.\nNo Circus is a collection of photographer Randi Malkin Steinberger’s vibrant color images of buildings in and around Los Angeles that have been tented for termite fumigation. After moving to the city in the early nineties\, she first encountered these brightly shrouded structures and began to stop and photograph them. Knowing that they might be undraped at any given moment\, Steinberger was intrigued by the way the colors and shapes of the tents revealed the buildings inside and highlighted the beauty of the poor plants on the outside\, still flourishing\, unaware that they were slowly being poisoned. Beyond their intended purpose of fumigation\, these tents also unwittingly beckon us to stop and contemplate architectural form\, the meaning of home\, and the lure of the Southern California lifestyle. No Circus features a text by noted essayist D.J. Waldie\, and is the culmination of a two decade pursuit of these temporary architectural enigmas.\nJoining Arcana along with Ms. Steinberger and Mr. Waldie will be the book’s designer – and Deadbeat Club head honcho – Clint Woodside along with a special musical performance by composer Gavin Gamboa. Evoking the language of insects – both real and imagined – as well as the sounds of quarantine\, Mr. Gamboa of The Teaching Machine collective will provide a backdrop of chirping\, clicking\, whirling\, buzzing oscillations to the event!

SUMMARY:Arcana Books Welcomes Pamela Littky
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, September 15th from 6 to 8PM\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts in welcoming Pamela Littky for a book signing of The Villa Bonita. \nLike many apartment buildings in Hollywood\, the Villa Bonita was built during the film industry’s first heyday bridging the 1920s to the 1930s. Built for the vast crews and casts that Cecil B. DeMille was hiring during the period\, the Villa Bonita has housed great Hollywood figures from Errol Flynn to Francis Ford Coppola. \nIn the absence of traditionally scaled\, walkable neighborhoods\, Los Angeles has long created community within the confines of these kinds of apartment complexes. Young and old\, employed and between gigs\, dreamers and those whose dreams left long ago – everyone arrived at the Villa Bonita for one good reason or another. Featuring a foreword by Cameron Crowe\, this striking hardbound volume brings us within intimate distance of its subjects\, as Los Angeles-based photographer – and Arcana favorite – Pamela Littky surveys all of the inhabitants of this historic apartment tower in the middle of Hollywood\, creating a collective portrait of the transient nature of the city.

SUMMARY:Arcana Hosts A Book Signing For "Courts 02" By Ward Roberts
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, July 28th from 5 to 7PM\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts along with Éditions for a book launch and signing for Courts 02 by Ward Roberts. Following the release of Courts in 2012\, New York-based photographer Ward Roberts releases the second volume of his comprehensive body of work documenting sporting courts in Hong Kong\, Bermuda\, Hawaii\, New York\, and Melbourne. \nPublisher Éditions has produced two separate releases of the book – a standard edition plus a collector’s edition limited to one hundred examples – and for the very first time a selection of three 23 x 23″ color prints that will be on display and available for sale at the event. \n“As all iconic images inevitably do\, Ward Roberts’ Courts have now become a force of their own\, circulating the world with terrific velocity via the rushing slipstream of the Internet\, gathering momentum and making their mark upon the global eye. His work has brought together a growing community of followers\, with whom he feels a humble sense of connection. This is\, in a sense\, the most beautiful reflection of the essence of what makes his images so riveting\, his art so powerful: he gives life to the spaces of photography\, and photography to the spaces of life”. – Excerpt from Jennifer Kransinki’s foreword to Courts 02\, 2016. \n8675 Washington Boulevard\, Culver City\n310.458.1499 \n

SUMMARY:Arcana Books Hosts A Celebration For Bettina Hubby
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday\, July 10th from 4 to 6PM\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts\, Klowden Mann\, and LAND (Los Angeles Nomadic Division) to celebrate the release of Bettina Hubby’s Thanks for the Mammaries. This artist’s book documents the various iterations of Hubby’s ongoing project Thanks for the Mammaries\, the Facebook feed which was originally installed at the LAND HQ from October through November of 2015. \nIn 2014\, Hubby announced her Breast Cancer diagnosis on Facebook and asked her friends and community to submit “boob-related imagery.” People showered Hubby with images\, videos\, and verbiage that helped her heal\, and inspired her to pay it forward. Touched by the uplifting effect of this communal support\, Hubby sent out a call to artists to submit works for an exhibition. The exhibitions and online Facebook feed displayed the outpouring of support that resulted from Hubby’s call to action; selections of which are documented in the publication. “What continues to bring me the most satisfaction is the feedback regarding my approach\, in that it has been positively impacting and inspiring people who have (and even many who have not) faced illness in their lives\, or in their loved ones’ lives. This is why I wanted to release this as a book to a wider audience. This book is dedicated to the medicinal power of boobishness”. \n8675 Washington Boulevard\, Culver City\n310.458.1499 \n

SUMMARY:Arcana Hosts A Book Signing + Conversation With Johnston Marklee
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, July 9th from 4 to 6PM\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts in welcoming their very own architects\, Johnston Marklee partners Sharon Johnston and Mark Lee\, for a conversation and book signing inside the gorgeous Arcana showroom they created.  The afternoon will address the architectural firm’s design process and engagement with contemporary art practices in conversation with artist Veronika Kellndorfer\, one of the collaborators on their new monograph\, HOUSE IS A HOUSE IS A HOUSE IS A HOUSE IS A HOUSE. \nThe talk will be followed by a book signing. \n8675 Washington Boulevard\, Culver City\n310.458.1499 \nAbout Johnston Marklee\nFounded by partners Sharon Johnston\, F.A.I.A. and Mark Lee in 1998\, Johnston Marklee is internationally recognized for its diverse portfolio of architecture\, engaging the physical and cultural circumstances of each project through a precise synthesis of structural form\, materiality\, and atmospheric light. The work of the firm pays tribute to a specific Southern Californian interpretation of modernism\, and at the same time operates at the intersection of a global and local dialogue. Since founding Johnston Marklee\, Johnston and Lee have forged a leading role in the cultural discourse around contemporary art and architecture\, eliciting design collaborations with distinguished museums\, foundations\, and artists around the world. Complementing this far-reaching network\, the firm’s work is recognized for being deeply rooted in the history and foundations of the discipline. \nAbout Veronika Kellndorfer\nOriginally through painting and more recently through photography\, Veronika Kellndorfer has been concerned with the physical and social construction of space. In her recent body of work\, Kellndorfer photographed classic modernist architectural landmarks in Los Angeles including the only house built by Oscar Niemeyer in the United States\, Rudolph Schindler’s Lovell Beach House\, John Lautner’s Silvertop home in Silver Lake\, and Frank Lloyd Wright’s Freeman House\, among others. Yet\, rather than capturing the iconic wide-angle views of these famously photographed homes\, Kellndorfer focuses on the intimate details of windows and reflections and how they reveal the ephemeral nature of seeing\, as well as the subjectivity of space. This ambiguity of space is heightened by the artist’s use of highly reflective glass panels that are often life-sized\, and when displayed in a public setting\, museum or gallery\, invites the viewer to experience his or her own subjective surroundings. \nHer exhibition Tropical Modernism: Lina Bo Bardi will be on view at Christopher Grimes Gallery from July 8th through September 2nd\, 2016.

SUMMARY:Arcana Hosts A Double Book Signing: Deanna Templeton and Clint Woodside
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, June 18th from 5 to 7pm\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts for a double book signing for these two amazing releases\, Deanna Templeton’s The Swimming Pool and Clint Woodside’s Undercover Cars. \n8675 Washington Boulevard\, Culver City\n310.458.1499 \nDeanna Templeton’s The Swimming Pool is a newly published photographic essay from this Southern California-based artist. Departing from her well-known street portraiture\, this collection offers a deep and inspiring view of the human form underwater. The series was born after an impromptu nude swimming pool shoot of her husband – the artist Ed Templeton – which spurred an eight-year journey in the study of light\, expression\, and the enigma of water. Shooting entirely on color\, black-and-white\, and Polaroid film\, Templeton sends her friends into the pool to be photographed in their truest form. \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nClint Woodside’s Undercover Cars was first issued in 2013 as a Deadbeat Club zine and has been newly re-conceived and substantially enlarged as an elegant hardcover book. Containing fifty-two images of cars parked in plain sight\, but covered from the elements\, it is the culmination of a series of color photographs – shot on film and printed in the dark room – spanning five years\, scores of autos\, and thousands of miles from Los Angeles to Banghok.

SUMMARY:Arcana Hosts A Book Signing With Olivia Bee And Special Guest\, BØRNS
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, May 14th from 5:00pm – 7:00pm\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts as they host Olivia Bee in a celebration of the publication of her book Kids In Love. Joining Olivia will be her friend and very special musical guest\, BØRNS\, who will present an acoustic set as part of the evening’s festivities. \nOlivia Bee is celebrated for her dreamy\, evocative portraits and landscapes rich with implied narratives of intimacy\, freedom\, and adventure. Her first full-length book Kids in Love from Aperture showcases two bodies of photographic work\, including the series “Enveloped in a Dream” that first brought Bee recognition as a teenager. These images offer a visual diary of girlhood friendship and the exploration of self\, showcasing Bee’s unique ability to convey the bittersweet nostalgia of adolescence on the brink of adulthood and new possibilities. The second\, “Kids in Love”\, is a photographic chronicle of her circle of friends and new loves\, capturing both the pleasures and terrors of the fleeting passage of romanticized youth. While the work continues to evolve\, what remains constant is her seductive use of color and photographic artifact\, as well as the immediacy and charge of each image. \nBee gives voice to the self-awareness and visual fluency of the millennial generation. Experiences are sharply felt\, and easily communicated and shared\, generating visual records that render these memories as significant as the moments themselves. Tavi Gevinson\, founding editor of the online magazine “Rookie” as well as Bee’s frequent collaborator and model writes about the work and about the role of images as social currency in today’s image-driven world. \n8675 Washington Boulevard\n310-458-1499 \n
