In September–October 2013, Giorgio Maffei curated the Records by Artists exhibition at Biblioteca Universitaria, Bologna, a selection of 130 artists records chosen among Maffei’s personal collection [more info on Digicult.it]. The pages above are excerpted from the accompanying catalogue. Though it may superficially cover the same ground as the venerable Broken Music book, Records by Artists is organized more neatly, with a better layout allowing the description of one item per page. Of course, as a dealer of multiples, Maffei is used to provide nice pictures of the items he sells, and the book is hence a joy to peruse. In his selecton, Maffei also introduces more Italian references and several series like Aspen magazine, Giorno Poetry Systems, Radio Taxi or 3Vitre get a chapter on their own.
