Printed Matter

Printed Matter was founded by artists to celebrate, publish and sell artists' books.  This is an excellent resource - they also have several artist publications, periodicals and zines in the front of the store.  Since it's located in Chelsea, it's a short walk from many of the galleries we'll visit.  Here's a link:

Question Assignment

Your second assignment is to go to the FAQ page and post a new question in the comments section of that page.  What do you want to know that we haven't covered?

Materials Wishlist

I have allocated funds in the budget for common materials to be used and shared by the entire class.  What kinds of materials do you think would be useful?  That would you like to experiment with?  Your first assignment is to respond to this post with materials ideas - use the links in the previous post about art materials to research what you can find in New York (you can pretty much find anything, but different places obviously provide different materials.  Feel free to look up other possible sources as well).
