| Primary InformationPrimary Information is a non-profit organization devoted to printing artists books, artist writings, out of print publications and editions. Primary Information was formed in 2006 by Miriam Katzeff and James Hoff to foster intergenerational dialogue through the publication of artists’ books and writings by artists—emerging, mid-career, and established. Our period of focus is from the early Sixties to the present, with an emphasis on the conceptual practice begun in the mid Sixties and the strategy of using publications as an extension of this practice.

| | | FORTHCOMING Edited by Dick Higgins.
Conceived by poet, publisher, artist, composer and writer Dick Higgins (1938–98) in the early 1970s to celebrate Something Else Press—the legendary publishing company he founded in 1963 to showcase Fluxus and other experimental artists—this volume, which was never realized in Higgins' lifetime, collects an amazing array of 1960s avant-garde creativity. Something Else Press published some of the most radical art and literature of its time and provided a foundation and template for the artist’s book medium, which has flourished internationally since the 1960s.
The Reader features selections from rare and out-of-print Something Else classics such as Claes Oldenburg’s Store Days; John . . . .go to book page >> |  | STATUS: Forthcoming | 12/20/2022 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 | PRIMARY INFORMATIONPbk, 6 x 9.25 in. / 368 pgs / 106 bw. | 12/20/2022 | Awaiting stock | US $29.95 |

For Identity Pitches, artists Cory Arcangel (born 1978) and Stine Janvin (born 1985) have composed conceptual music scores based on the knitting patterns for traditional Norwegian sweaters known as Lusekofte. Utilizing three of the most popular designs (Setesdal, Fana and the eight-petal rose of Selbu) of this ubiquitous garment, Janvin creates scores for both solo and ensemble performers by mapping the knitting patterns onto the harmonic and subharmonic series and integrating the tuning principles of traditional Norwegian instruments. These scores are further manipulated by Arcangel using a custom deep-fried” coding script to create a series of image glitches.
