Synopsis

Growing up in the 1970s, Marc Joseph found his early exposure to art, writing, and music in the eccentric smaller book and record shops of Cleveland Heights and downtown Cleveland, Ohio, where purchasing "London Calling" by the Clash, or studying book covers such as George Orwell's "Animal Farm" were what occupied an entire youth of Saturdays. It was the beginning of a permanent fascination with books and records and their inherent discoveries - both as public artworks and as formative private experiences. New and Used, Joseph's two-volume set, is a collection of detailed color pictures: hard-covers, paperbacks, LPs, CDs and cassettes, either shelved, piled, boxed and stacked in their increasingly endangered natural environments-independent book and record shops; or individually silhouetted like artifacts pinned into shadow-boxes. Together with editor Damon Krukowski, the artist has also assembled a set of short fiction, prose, and personal essay texts by contemporary writers and musicians such as Thurston Moore (of Sonic Youth), novelist Jonathan Letham ("Motherless Brooklyn, Fortress of Solitude"), critic and curator Bob Nickas ("Collection Diary, Live Free or Die"), poet Eileen Myles ("Cool for You, Chelsea Girls"), and others who were asked to respond to the New and Used of their own experience.
