Like the hotel, these hand-painted polymer resin multiples were intended to highlight the living conditions of the Palestinian people. The miniatures were created by Banksy, who supervised decorations carried out by Palestinian artists – copies of the iconic graffiti he has painted on the wall closing off the West Bank. Through his research in Palestine and various collections and archives, Marc Pairon uncovers detailed information about this highly coveted series of collectibles.● Back to Arcana's Printed Matter Virtual Art Book Fair 2021 page

Anamorphosis Praneet Soi - The Mosaic Rooms
(SOI, PRANEET). Soi, Praneet. London, UK: Book Works, 2020. other. New.
978-1912570089PLEASE NOTE: This book will ship to you after the Printed Matter Virtual Art Book Fair (estimated to ship from us in mid-March).Presenting film stills, collages, drawings, notes, and sketches, ‘Anamorphosis’ is informed by Indian artist Praneet Soi’s travels in Israel and Palestine while searching for alternative representations of a territory under occupation. In his work, Soi is keen to explore the term “anamorphosis” as a metaphor for distorted representations arising from politicized subject matter. Palestine is experienced through facets of landscape, productivity, and enterprise, and placed in dialogue with Soi’s ongoing engagement with craftsmen in Kashmir. His work surmises that any representation of such landscapes is a political gesture. The book is published with his first solo exhibition in London.● Back to Arcana's Printed Matter Virtual Art Book Fair 2021 page

PLEASE NOTE: This book will ship to you after the Printed Matter Virtual Art Book Fair (estimated to ship from us in mid-March).For many, the lockdown period has meant spending much more time at home, which has probably led to deeper contemplations of floor coverings.

This issue looks at the infinite functions, meanings, and possibilities of the rug the world over, from George Pendle’s revelations about airport carpets to Rachel Dedman’s analysis of Palestinian rug-making traditions, from stories of carpet dealers by Kitty Drake to a complex case of gender and weaving by Alice Twemlow, and from tatami mats, prayer rugs, and tapestries to the animal kingdom beneath our feet.● Back to Arcana's Printed Matter Virtual Art Book Fair 2021 page

Karel Martens - Tokyo Papers
. Roma Publications, 2020. 16 x 22 cm. paperback. 9789492811837
PLEASE NOTE: This book will ship to you after the Printed Matter Virtual Art Book Fair (estimated to ship from us in mid-March).‘Tokyo Papers’ comprises a collection of 41 monoprints created by Dutch graphic designer and typographer Karel Martens between 2019 and 2020. In 2018, Martens received a package from artist-curator Pierre Leguillon that contained filled-in Japanese forms which he had found at a street market in Tokyo. Martens was intrigued by the collection of thin paper with a rectangular black-blue layer of carbon on the back. In 2019 he started to print on these back sides, but because the overprinting on the carbon layer caused unwanted damage, he switched to printing them on the front sides as well. “The closing image is related to Tokyo in a different way,” he explains.● Back to Arcana's Printed Matter Virtual Art Book Fair 2021 page

Corinne By Bruno Stettler
. Everyedition, 2020. 27 x 20 cm. other.
PLEASE NOTE: This book will ship to you after the Printed Matter Virtual Art Book Fair (estimated to ship from us in mid-March).A book dedicated to the muse of photographer Bruno Stettler, Corinne (aka Colli, Coco, Acid), with whom he worked between 1980 and 1986. A key figure in Zurich’s party scene in the 1980s, she played a pivotal role in getting the photographer access to numerous celebrity figures and musicians, among them David Bowie, Public Enemy, Motorhead, and the Beastie Boys. Corinne, who passed away in 2016 at the age of 53, was not just a party girl, groupie, and model – she would also take on different personalities. In private portraits and snapshots from backstage or out the city, Stettler captures her many facets, her kinetic, one-of-a-kind character, and her femme fatale allure.● Back to Arcana's Printed Matter Virtual Art Book Fair 2021 page

PLEASE NOTE: This book will ship to you after the Printed Matter Virtual Art Book Fair (estimated to ship from us in mid-March).This issue examines one of the most ubiquitous, widely recognised and popular fruits on the planet.

But perhaps one of the most interesting aspects of the banana is its role in the beginning and end of our lives; its soft, easy-to-mash texture makes it suitable for both teething babies and the toothless elderly. Learn everything about the banana, from its ripeness and size, to how to peel, handle, and store it. Humorous but informative illustrations and photos complete this authoritative banana guide.● Back to Arcana's Printed Matter Virtual Art Book Fair 2021 page
