Prin­ted Mat­ter present an extens­ive exhibit of artist books by Cana­dian pion­eer­ing con­cep­tual artist, Garry Neill Kennedy, open­ing on Thursday, April 12th 2012, at their store­front in New York… The show, cur­ated by Adam O’Reilly, will present over 100 of Kennedy’s artist’s books as well as accom­pa­ny­ing posters, silk­screen prints, pho­tos, and eph­em­era. The exhib­i­tion will run from April 12th to May 30th at the Prin­ted Mat­ter store­front. You are invited to join for a launch on Thursday, April 12th, from 6 to 8pm. “Kennedy’s double life as an art admin­is­trator had a sig­ni­fic­ant influ­ence on his art­work, with his sharp wit and humor, the books in this exhibit range from insti­tu­tional cri­tiques, polit­ical and social invest­ig­a­tions, to appro­pri­ated New Yorker car­toons.”
