BOOKS by Kevin McNamee-Tweed
Printed in conjunction with Raw Paw and Farewell Books, Kevin McNamee-Tweed's BOOKS is a collection of over one hundred invented books, magazines, bookmarks, and fake flyers. They are immediately relatable and humorous, literary, and poignant. His BOOKS appeal to both those well-versed in literature and the aesthetics of
archetypal book design, as well as to the layman who simply appreciates irreverence and wit.
BOOKS has been presented as an exhibition at Co-Lab Projects in Austin, TX and Little Berlin Gallery in Philadelphia, PA, as a fully fabricated bookstore. The complete series of drawings and peripheral documentation of the project is compiled here in full color -- appropriately, in book form. The faithfully reproduced collection is organized by Fiction, Non-Fiction, and Ephemera, includes an afterword by Molasses Books owner Matthew Winn and an interview with the artist. Published in an edition of 300.
