Adam McEwen: Sidewalks
Published by Zolo Press and designed in close collaboration with Adam McEwen, this artist’s book—printed in a limited run of seven hundred copies—presents McEwen’s inkjet-on-sponge paintings alongside the ambient poetry of Tan Lin, written in response to the works. Photographs of city sidewalks—some pristine, others strewed with cracks, manholes, and chewed gum—are printed on vividly colored cellulose sponge and oriented vertically, giving a sense of perspective and landscape but also of disorientation and abstraction. The publication features individual plates of fifty-one works accompanied by over thirty pages of full-bleed details that capture the surface texture of the medium.
