Now what would they say about our bookshelf at Golden Age?

Dye-ing to See Nick Relph @ Gavin Brown's Enterprise
Thursday, March 11, 2010
One of our faves, Nick Relph has his first solo show up at Gavin Brown's Enterprise. The press release (available here) is an essay written by Relph that gives a compelling overview of the history of fabric dyeing and it's relation to color, film, luxury goods and real estate development.
The collages look great, check the show out in New York and online.
Also of note, we have just one copy left of this similarly rad monograph from Oliver Payne and Nick Relph's exhibition at the Serpentine gallery available here:

Books in the Age of the iPad

Craig Mod thinks about the future of books
Even though I read countless "pages" on my computer and phone, I've been hesitant to embrace the Kindle and iPad. As a book nerd, it's hard for me to imagine not having stacks of books on my desk, next to my bed, on the floor, and any other place where books can be stacked. In his essay, Mod suggests that those stacks won't leave, if anything he thinks they'll get better.
Of the books we do print — the books we make — they need rigor. They need to be books where the object is embraced as a canvas by designer, publisher and writer. This is the only way these books as physical objects will carry any meaning moving forward.
From one print lover to another, I urge you to read this essay. Books in the Age of the iPad, Craig Mod, March 2010
