What is this? Why does it look so special? First published in 1900, 'The Art and Craft of Garden Making' is an astounding and luxurious facsimile of a rare Victorian gardening guide—bound in cloth with exquisite color illustrations.⁠ ⁠ Since its initial publication, Thomas H. Mawson’s book has become the go-to guide for garden design, with multiple reprints that continue to withstand the test of time. Its chapters address numerous topics essential to successful landscape design, from “The Choice of a Site and Its Treatment” to “Flower Gardens, Beds, and Borders.”⁠ ⁠ The book’s author, Thomas Hayton Mawson (1861–1933), was a British garden designer, landscape architect and town planner. He began his own landscape firm in the 1880s; he combined his botanical knowledge and eye for architectural details into unique plans for parks throughout Europe, many of which have since been restored to their former floral glory. With great attention to detail and diligent research, Mawson’s expertise is apparent throughout the book.⁠ ⁠ Featuring 6 color and 544 black-and-white reproductions, this new, highly collectible edition is a facsimile of that 440-page, clothbound fifth edition of 1926—complete with gold detailing. It preserves both the beauty of the book’s original design and the encyclopedic information contained within its pages. ⁠ ⁠ Published by @bokforlagetstolpe⁠ ⁠ Read more via linkinbio⁠ ⁠ #artandcraftofgardenmaking #gardening #englishgardening #facsimileedition #thomashmawson #gardendesign #britishgardendesign #botanical⁠ ⁠ https://www.instagram.com/p/CcTZVr2ppg5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

New facsimile edition! 'N.E. Thing Co.: Companies Act (Volume 1)⁠' — new from @brickpress⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Described by cofounder Iain Baxter as a “compendium of company ideas,” 'Companies Act' is perhaps the most crucial bookwork by the seminal, Vancouver-based conceptual art group, N.E. Thing Co.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Assembled by Jean-Christophe Ammann of @kunsthallebasel it comprised a near-complete visual archive of the unparalleled creative practice of Iain and Ingrid Baxter as the N.E. Thing Company.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ N.E. Thing Co. was a Vancouver-based conceptual art group run by co-presidents Iain and Ingrid Baxter. The “company” acted as a vehicle that interrogated art, domestic systems, corporate strategies and everyday life through the use of photography, information technology and installation-based works.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Due to N.E. Thing Co.’s small runs, this work is particularly scarce. Originally published in an edition of 500, this facsimile second edition makes 'Companies Act' accessible for the first time in over 40 years.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Please order from your local independent #bookstorehero — many have reopened or offer curbside pickup! Or order via linkinbio.⁠⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ @the_and_man⁠ #nethingco #companiesact #facsimileedition #iainbaxter #ingridbaxter⁠⠀ https://www.instagram.com/p/CF7f9ZCpyic/?igshid=kxv6g15jc8u0

We ❤️this new facsimile edition of Yvonne Rainer's classic 'Work 1961–73' from @primaryinfo !!⁠⠀ “It goes without saying that a dance is a dance and a book about dance is a book. Though they may meet at the intersection of Art and Good Intentions, I find myself greedy. I have a longstanding infatuation with language, a not-easily assailed conviction that it, above all else, offers a key to clarity. Not that it can replace experience, but rather holds a mirror to our experience, gives us distance when we need it. So here I am, in a sense, trying to ‘replace’ my performances with a book, greedily pushing language to clarify what already was clear in other terms. But, alas, gone. This has seemed one good reason to compile a book out of the remains of my performances, letting the language fall where it may. Let it be said ‘She usually makes performances and has also made a book.’” –Yvonne Rainer⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Originally published in 1974 by the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, the publication provides multifaceted insight into some of Rainer’s most celebrated choreographic works, including Terrain (1962), Trio A (1966), Continuous Project-Altered Daily (1970), War (1970), Street Action (1970), and This is the story of a woman who … (1973), among many others.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #yvonnerainer #judsonchurch @nscaduniversity #facsimileedition #yvonnerainerbook #yvonnerainerworks #dance #choreography https://www.instagram.com/p/B96q3Y9p5UP/?igshid=1ftumyibxzxay
