Description
Summary:	The first publication dedicated to artists' zines in North America, an exploration of an unexamined but thriving aesthetic practice. Copy Machine Manifestos captures the history of artists' zines, placing them in the lineage of the visual arts and exploring their growth over the past five decades. Illustrated with hundreds of zine covers and interiors, alongside work in other media, such as painting, photography, film, video and performance, the book also features brief biographies for more than 100 zine-makers including Beverly Buchanan, Mark Gonzales, G.B. Jones, Miranda July, Bruce LaBruce, Terence Koh, LTTR, Ari Marcopoulos, Mark Morrisroe, Raymond Pettibon, Brontez Purnell, Paul Mpagi Sepuya and Kandis Williams. Accompanying an exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum, this book, bound as a paperback with a separate jacket, focuses on zines from North America, celebrating how artists have harnessed the medium's essential role in community building and transforming material and conceptual approaches to making art across all media since 1970.
