For Book Week Scotland DCA will be presenting a display of books, published ephemera and zines
all made by artists. The display will draw on works from a number of
sources including work from the Centre for Artists’ Books which is based
in the Visual Research Centre in the building. This collection has been
built up over many years and comprises books made by artists as part of
their practice, rather than books about artists.
Alongside these works the display will include rare examples of the landmark ‘multimedia magazine in a box' Aspen featuring
work by Andy Warhol, Marshall McLuhan and Dan Graham kindly lent to
Dundee Contemporary Arts by Heart Fine Art, Edinburgh. There will also
be a focus on the Dundee quarterly art zine Yuck’n Yum and the
unveiling of new books from DCA’s recent exhibitions programme by Ruth
Ewan and Torsten Lauschmann.
