The Descent of Man-
Wolfe Von Lenkiewicz

Artist: Wolfe Von Lenkiewicz
Text By: Richard Dyer   
Photography: Tessa Angus

Price: £18.00

The Descent of Man is a collection of images from the May 2009 exhibition of the same name.

Focusing on ideas of religion, creationism, mythology, and science,Lenkiewicz engages in the elaborate project of 're-sequencing' (borrowing the term from geneticists) the existing language of images into a new and fantastical visual syntax. In the manner of a nineteenth century naturalist such as Darwin, Lenkiewicz catalogues the varieties of iconographic experience - grafting together multiple images to produce startling hybrids of a disturbing and uncanny new order of 'species'.

Radiations - Paul Fryer

Artist: Paul Fryer
Editor: Jason Beard  
Contribution By: Hans Ulrich Obrist       
Hardback, 96 pages
Published by Other Criteria
ISBN-10: 1904212190

Price: £36.00

Radiations is the first publication on the work of rising artist Paul Fryer. The relationship between visual art and science is at the heart of Fryer's eccentric but highly engaging body of works: "An artist like P.A. Fryer is as much a throwback to the enlightenment of the 18th century as he is prescient of the new." Fryer's scientific inquiry, his visual awareness of popular cultural icons, combined with a sense of a poetic pieta gives his work a definite sense of the now.
