Excerpts from the 1971 Journal of Rosemary Mayer
By Kate SilzerThe second edition of Excerpts from the 1971 Journal of Rosemary Mayer gives us more of the real stuff: reckoning with herself, her body, her art, her world. In her journals, she creates and performs herself, composing an unguarded self-portrait of an artist as a young woman.
Carolee Schneemann’s Parts of a Body House Book
By Kate SilzerA new facsimile edition of the performance artist’s feverish exploration of bodily autonomy, sexuality, and creativity. Schneemann passed away in 2019 during the later stages of production. Thus the book is a relic, a temporary vessel for her oeuvre, a pulsing manifestation of something ultimately uncontainable.
Mina Loy: Strangeness Is Inevitable
By Kate SilzerThis book chronicles her life and work through photographs, letters, sketches, essays, and ephemera with an emphasis on Loy’s artistic pursuits. This canonical omission matters in part because Loy didn’t see her artistic and authorial efforts as separate.
