The Veterans Book Project
Monica Haller, a friend of the LBM crew, is having a fundraiser for her amazing Veterans Book Project. Here is a description of the project from here website:
“The Veterans Book Project is a library of books authored collaboratively by artist Monica Haller and dozens of people who have been affected by, and have archives of, the current American wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. In their printed format, the books provide a place or “container” that slows down and materializes the great quantity of ephemeral image files that live on veterans’ hard drives and in their heads.”

Work
Sorry for the quiet blog of late. I’ve been on the road since the holidays. After some lonely nights in Kansas, I worked on a fantastic assignment in Rockford, Illinois for the New York Times Magazine. (Read about the making of this work here). Now I’m in Italy preparing for a workshop and lecture at Cesuralab. Meanwhile, the LBM team has been busy mailing out copies of Broken Manual and preparing new publications. Forgive our silence during this mushroom spawning season.
Thanks for all of the calls and emails, I found some Kodachrome (thanks Matt!)
Just one week left
My exhibition at the Walker Art Center closes on January 2nd. If you don’t get a chance to see it, you can view some installation views here.

Happy Holidays…
