Woodside, Clint. Um Yeah Arts, 2016. First Edition 1/10 Deluxe. 4to. Cloth with Pastedown, Boxed. Photography Monograph. As New/No Jacket - As Issued. First issued in 2013 as a Deadbeat Club zine, Undercover Cars has been substantially enlarged and re-conceived as an elegant hardcover book featuring a new text by photographer Mike Slack. Undercover Cars is the culmination of a series of color photographs – shot on film and printed in the dark room – spanning five years, scores of autos, and thousands of miles from Los Angeles to Bangkok. The book contains 52 images of cars parked in plain sight, but covered from the elements. In his insightful essay, co-publisher Mike Slack (The Ice Plant) observes, “What strikes me now, looking at this fresh new edit, is not the boring ubiquity of the subject matter - the deadpan Christo-like charm of all these tarps attached to all these automobiles - but the man-made environments Woodside is showing us in the photographs, and the sense of walking-and-looking that the series implies. Never mind the covered cars; look at what surrounds them.” Hailing from New York, Clint Woodside currently resides in LA by way of Philadelphia. His work as a photographer has been shown in New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Jose, and Philadelphia, and internationally in Europe, Asia, and Australia. Woodside is also known for his extensive work as a curator, graphic designer, and as creator/publisher of Deadbeat Club - a publisher and distributor of more than forty publications whose diverse roster of photographers includes Todd Hido, Tobin Yelland, Ed Templeton, Deanna Templeton, Andrea Sonnenberg, Jerry Hsu, Patrick O’Dell, Woodside, and others.
