For his first artist book, Ryan Trecartin (born 1981) compiles more than 100 composited images created by mining his personal Instagram and Snapchat feeds, screenshots and photos, all captured and archived in his phone. While developing several new bodies of work that encompass video, sculpture and installation (which debuted in Berlin and Los Angeles in September and October 2014, respectively) Trecartin collected images which functioned as both reference material and conceptual pivot points for his expansive new bodies of work. Following in the great artist book tradition of John Baldessari and Edward Ruscha, the UCCA has called on Ryan Trecartin along with LA artists Kathryn Andrews, Aaron Curry, Alex Israel, Matthew Monahan, Sterling Ruby, and Kaari Upson to make individual artist books for The Los Angeles Project in Beijing.
