  • Book cover of Price, Seth
    Seth Price

     · 2010

    Through paintings, sculpture, video, and media work, Seth Price underlines the production strategies, dissemination modes, and valuation patterns of art. His appropriationist work, which he rather calls a 'redistribution' of (often) pirated materials, disrupts the operations of commodity culture. Among his formats and tactics one should mention the recycling of iconic illustrations, re-duplication (from digital to vacuum-formed techniques), the re-enactment of projects, and the collaborative actions with Continuous Project (formed in 2003 with Bettina Funcke, Wade Guyton, and Joseph Logan) or other artists. This first monograph dedicated to the artist includes an essay by Michael Newman as well as Price's own critical take on his practice, given in the form of a videotaped conference that structures the presentation of his works. Published with Kunsthalle Zurich, Zurich and the Kolnischer Kunstverein, Cologne.

  • Book cover of Continuous Project #12

    The latest in a series of facsimile appropriations, pamphlets, performances and interventions by the collective Continuous Project, this illustrated volume, the second in their institutional series, marks the occasion of the exhibition Seth Price/Kelley Walker/Continuous Project at Modern Art Oxford. Here the past becomes an episode of the present: part catalogue and part anthology of writings, Continuous Project #12 combines commissioned texts with historical reprints. Documenting the work of Seth Price and Kelley Walker with reproductions of their installation in Oxford, the book brings together new essays by Robert Hobbs and Jan Avgikos alongside contributions from curator Suzanne Cotter and religion scholar Joshua Dubler, in addition to historical documents.

  • Book cover of Seth Price - Knots

    This lavish picture-book surveys Seth Price's (born 1973) 2009-13 series of Knot Paintings, in which Price unites his signature vacuum-forming technique--an industrial plastic packaging process-- with a refined group of painterly techniques that include acrylic and oil, spray paint, screen printing, poured resins and patterned fabrics. Museum Brandhorst director Achim Hochdörfer has written: "Each Knot Painting introduces a fresh set of concerns: drawing and print techniques are integrated, slits are made in the surface, new ways of applying paint are tested. Painting becomes a node in a network of media-related and societal references." Price developed the book's concept and materials in close collaboration with designer Joseph Logan, yielding an artist's book in which the layout moves from extreme close-up to full views of these rich surfaces, while plastics and metal in the book's binding reflect the materiality of the works.

    Although best known for his influential work in sculpture, video, and writing, Seth Price has always made drawings and maquettes as a way to explore ideas developed in his other bodies of work. This book documents a group of these rarely seen works selected by curator Achim Hochdorfer for exhibition at Petzel East, New York. Spanning more than fifteen years, the art here encompasses media and materials that range from watercolor, airbrush and spray-paint, to collage and fabric. Examples include drawings of Depression-era landscapes, acetate and enamel maquettes, graffiti-marker paintings on shrink-wrapped palettes and research notes for an apocalyptic, Evangelical sci-fi novel. Price has made annotations throughout the book, recounting the context in which these works were made.
