Sara MacKillop. Ex-library Book. Pork Salad Press
An Ex-library book is the least desirable book in book collecting terms. The term is used for books that once belonged to a library. Ex-library books are generally unattractive, as they have usually been stamped, taped, glued or had a card pocket glued to them. The books have often been damaged by the patrons of the library themselves.

‘The Hard And The Fast’
The publication is in part an archival document to a Situationist Intervention that took place sometime during the summer months of 1997, an intervention with specific interior / exterior locations within the centre of London. This artistic / political gesture was carried out during a long running political debate, over the obtrusive and ever growing numbers of CCTV surveillance cameras being installed within public spaces within the capital, and of which were disputed as an infringement upon rights to privacy of the individual citizen.
These interventions were an endeavour to integrate an applied form that would over a period of time, become part of the structure it had been applied to. And by incorporating a mock prosthesis to such public spaces, would endeavour to claim part of a specific public space, of which would represent a specific moment frozen in time.

Beuys Book. Klaus Staeck, Gerhard Steidl. Steidl.
Joseph Beuys was photographed extensively during his life, whether at work, while traveling or at home. But only a few photographers had the privileged access and tenacity of Klaus Staeck and Gerhard Steidl. Graphic artist Staeck and printer/publisher Steidl accompanied Beuys with their cameras from 1970 until his death in 1986. Staeck and Steidl were part of Beuys´ entourage, worked closely with him to produce his multiples and objects, and documented intimate aspects of the life of this unmatched artist-performer. These photos reveal Beuys´ unique charismatic personality that influenced not only those he met, but society and art in general.
