[James Baldwin] "Newark 1967: A Narrative in Black and White was produced by Maureen Cummins during the summer and fall of 2020, with typographic assistance from Kathleen McMillan. The project, which began as historical research during the months before the COVID-19 outbreak, quickly became, in the aftermath of the killing of George Floyd and Black Lives Matter protests across the country, a surreal parallel to the racism of our time.

Description:
Mexico City: Arts & Graphics with Giovanni Troconi, 2017. Limited Edition. Fine. Limited Edition. "This lovely portfolio-style artist book with work by Tatiana Parcero includes a striking cross-section of images: 9 prints on photo-paper and a photo-transfer on wood, for a total of 10 works with a poem by Mexican writer, publisher, and educator Alberto Roy Sanchez and certificate. Not only is this a wonderful representation of an established body of work by Parcero, it bridges series, and foreshadows future works. Most of the work included in the folio is from the Artist's established Universus series, which explores the body and its connections to the world through naturalists drawings and broken landscapes in diptych form. It also includes a work on wood; this piece is a link to newer and still evolving series and experimentations, so the folio should prove to be a pinnacle and a pivot piece; it marks a shift in the artist's work and visual investigations. Yet undefined, the new work seeks to…
