2006Best.-Nr. 30272Berlin: Jovis Verlag 2006. 1st. Soft cover. New. 9.4x6.5x0.9in. In the process of renovating Walter Gropius's seminal 1926 Bauhaus building in Dessau Germany which was added to UNESCO's World Heritage list in 1996 architectural plans were unearthed among sheaves of long-forgotten paperwork door handles discovered in the basement and original windows found in a greenhouse. This icon of Modernism and brick-and-mortar manifesto of Bauhaus ideas has always been regarded as a revolution in twentieth century architecture--not merely as the formal architectonic expression of Modernist ideals but as a laboratory for the technical innovations in building materials and methods that helped to drive that design. Archaeology of Modernism explores the design school's construction in light of early twentieth-century culture and society and its renovation today recording the detective work that went into its restoration and offering up surprising rediscovered details including its original paint colors. Illustrated with photographs plans and sketches some in color. Text in English and German. 255pp 1.77lb 9.4x6.5x0.9in Jovis Verlag paperback

Best.-Nr. 11222Santa Monica & Minneapolis: Danger! Books & Indulgence Press 2004. Deluxe/Limited Editions. Various. Fine. Deluxe/Limited Editions. Various. Moody's short story Surplus Value Books #13 is a comic parody of a bookseller's modern rare book catalogue. The story unfolds as the galley proofs of the involved book catalogue where the prices accorded the items for sale are contrasted with the personal and idiosyncratic values assigned to them by the bookseller. "This intricate collaboration is an expanded treatment of a text originally published by Rick Moody and David Ford as an artist's book in 1999. Taking the form of a bookseller's catalogue Moody's novella which is also reprinted in his 2000 collection Demonology lays bare the fragile psyche of its narrator whose fractured and overwrought book descriptions often veer into personal territory returning particularly to his obsession with a college classmate Anna Feldman. The deluxe edition includes corrected page proofs of the text complete with "hand corrections" by the author reproduced typographically by Wilbur "Chip" Schilling and sections that appear to have been manually "whited out." Each item in the portfolio supports the text of the story-from the straightjacket that holds the book and the narrator's "release papers" from a private mental hospital to the a collection of objects that relate directly to the entries including a Star Wars action figure Scrabble tiles and a baseball card. The text is aptly described by Hadley-based bookseller Ken Lopez: "Moody has created a hilarious and touching self-contained world where the values accorded to the items for sale dollars and the values inherent in them significance artistry passion are in running comic contrast." Exhibition statement Smith College The overall design and printing was undertaken by Wilbur "Chip" Schilling Daniel Kelm and David Ford Kelm with assistance from "other mechanics" at the Wide Awake Garage. In creating the OCD-adjacent box Kelm created a void filled with a blank because "any obsessive would want to have the regular edition too." He then noted laughing that would leave no place for the blank and wondered what would be done with that. While not called for a standard issue of the limited first edition one of 700 copies is included. Tight bright and unmarred. Folio resin coated cloth box mixed media including vinyl plastic cloth metal paper wood leather etc. fo 49x23x10cm. Numbered limited editions. Danger! Books & Indulgence Press unknown
