| | | Recommended Reading: A Book List on Film & Performing ArtsEssential monographs and surveys on Film, Dance, Opera and more, featuring George Balanchine, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Trisha Brown, Michael Clark, Merce Cunningham, William Forsyth, the Maysles Brothers, Jonas Mekas and Robert Wilson. | FORTHCOMING By Douglas Crimp. Edited by Karen Kelly, Barbara Schroeder. Introduction by Lynne Cooke.
Pioneering AIDS activist, art critic, educator and curator Douglas Crimp is known for the fluidity and acuity of his writing on an array of passions. His book AIDS: Cultural Analysis/Cultural Activism (1987) deconstructed the art world’s complicated and mostly disheartening responses to the AIDS crisis; On the Museum’s Ruins (1993) explored postmodernist art practices in relation to the politics of institutions; and Before Pictures (2016), a brilliant combination of memoir and criticism, chronicled Crimp’s first decade in 1970s New York.
This new book collects the critic’s incisive pieces on dance (a lifelong interest) and dance on film, which, according to Artforum, . . . .go to book page >> |  | STATUS: Forthcoming | 2/3/2026 This title is not yet published in the U.S. To pre-order or receive notice when the book is available, please email orders @ artbook.com | DANCING FOXES PRESS/GALERIE BUCHHOLZ

| FORTHCOMING By Jon Moritsugu.
Glimmering with candor and dead-on humor, this memoir tells the story of the meteoric rise of Japanese American filmmaker Jon Moritsugu (born 1965), from 1980s teenage delinquent in Honolulu to Ivy League slumster to take-no-prisoners movie auteur with a serious attitude problem, detailing Moritsugu's dive into drinking, drugging, narcissism and a fast and polluted lifestyle that might arguably have been the biggest influence on his string of utterly original films. The New York Times describes his work as funny, anarchic, provocative and exhilarating ; his first feature was tagged by Rolling Stone as one of the greatest punk rock movies of all time. The book includes hundreds of never-before-seen color and black-and-white photographs, . . . .go to book page >> |  | STATUS: Forthcoming | 2/3/2026 This title is not yet published in the U.S. To pre-order or receive notice when the book is available, please email orders @ artbook.com | KAYA PRESS
