New York City Printmaking Studios Directory
I am setting up a directory for printmaking studios in the city. The focus will be less on “jobbing” printers and more on spaces where workshops, open studio time, education and collaborative projects are happening.
If you run/work at/know of such an organization, hit me up.
→ BuzaMoto Industries
Tak’s newly founded design company. Congrats.

Robert Smithson, Map of Broken Glass (Atlantis), 1969
Reminded of this artwork at the Dia Beacon by this.
Brno Biennial 2008
Interesting installation view of the main exhibition hall at the 23rd biennial of graphic design in Brno, Czech Republic. Books on chairs, I like it.
RSS Feeds updated
I have just updated the RSS feeds to include findings and I’ve also set up personal feeds for myself and Hunter now that he is posting a bit as well.

I am starting to wonder how many other folks without FFFFOUND invites are doing their own homebrewed image bookmarking.
@Target in the Atlantic Center
Not the prime shelf space you want for your books – directly facing a pillar three inches away.
Wolfgang Tillmans: Concorde
From Tillmans’ Concorde series
For the chosen few, flying Concorde is apparently a glamorous but cramped and slightly boring routine while to watch it in air, landing or taking off is a strange and free spectacle, a super modern anachronism and an image of the desire to overcome time and distance through technology.
We Can Burn That Bridge @Cannonball Press
18” x 24” woodocut and letterpress on paper by Martin Mazorra. There’s lots of good stuff coming off presses at Cannonball here in Brooklyn and they’ve got quite a few awesome prints for sale on their site.
Chasing Utopia, Family Imagines No Possessions @New York Times
“It’s amazing the amount of things a family can acquire,” said Mrs. Harris, 28, attributing their good life to “the ridiculous amount of money” her husband earned as a computer network engineer in this early Wi-Fi mecca.
The Harrises now hope to end up as organic homesteaders in Vermont.
