We were searching for good vibes and we found them. Images here are from 'Ann Craven: Animals, Birds, Flowers, Moons,' published by @karmabookstore & @karmakarma9⁠ ⁠ Ann Craven (born 1972) superimposes source photographs, historical works and her own paintings, creating mediated images that feature layer upon layer of referentiality—a collage of her most treasured curios. Peacocks showcase their plumage; birds perch on a branch; a trio of horses pose “just so.” Through these acts of creation and recreation, Craven becomes both master and copyist, citing herself in her own art historical lineage.⁠ ⁠ Animals, birds, flowers, moons: Craven’s motifs are in themselves an incantation—a wish to repeat, reencounter, relive. In keeping with this process of revisitation, Craven’s paintings are repeated in threes throughout this fully illustrated catalog, mimicking the tripartite structure of her 'Animals Birds Flowers Moons' exhibition. The book is divided into three parts, each paired with one of three texts: two newly commissioned essays by Durga Chew-Bose and Keith Mayerson, and a 2021 interview between Craven and Lois Dodd.⁠ ⁠ More via linkinbio.⁠ ⁠ @ann_craven @durgapolashi @keithmayerson @anncravenstudio #anncraven https://www.instagram.com/artbook/p/CYEbFhGLaid/?utm_medium=tumblr

After a long week of the new not-normal, we're noticing that certain books really get us through. Case in point, 'Ann Craven: Birds We Know.' Because one wondrous byproduct of social distancing is our ever-increasing awareness of the birds of spring arriving and singing their hearts out—even as their sonic competition wanes. So we send these paintings from the beautiful new linen-bound book published by Karma, New York, and Center for Maine Contemporary Art, to all the newly-minted indoor birdwatchers doing the best they can with what they've got.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Please order from your local independent #bookstorehero — many are still shipping or offering curbside pickup!
