Topographies
How do we map our mental and physical landscapes? Curator Karen Moss addresses these issues in a selection of 22 pieces by established and emerging California artists, including John Baldessari, Allan Kaprow and Ed Ruscha, Susan Silton and Alex Slade, using media ranging from painting to video and public intervention. The catalog has a clever Thomas Guide-style binding and design for the directionally challenged.
The Handbook of Moving on or How to Survive When You Die!
Follow the story of a diverse group of people after they pass on or die. Discover their stories—what has happened to them and what may be about to happen. Follow on further with some of them while they attempt to make sense of their earthly lives and how their existence carries on, sometimes in unexpected ways. What they discover may be thought-provoking, challenging, or comforting. To you, the reader, this may depend on what your hopes and fears are, not only about death but about lessons in life. Read on and hear messages sent back to loved ones, or not-so-loved ones, left behind. Some of these messages may make you laugh, some may make you cry, but all will make you, the reader, think. The story is one-third imagination, one-third experience, and one-third reported stories from people encountered in daily life over many years. Enjoy!
California Biennial 2006
Essays by Elizabeth Armstrong, Kristin Chambers, Aimee Chang, Rita Gonzalez, Glen Helfand, Michael Ned Holte, Karen Moss and Jan Tumlir. Foreword by Dennis Szakacs.
By Alison Knowles
American artist Alison Knowles is best known as a co-founder of Fluxus, the avant-garde group founded in 1962. Knowles's groundbreaking experiments--from painting and printmaking to sculpture and installation, sound works, poetry, and artist's books--have influenced contemporary art and artists for more than fifty years. The first comprehensive exhibition of her significant but underexamined body of work, by Alison Knowles: A Retrospective (1960-2022) will bring greater attention to all facets of the artist's oeuvre, presenting more than two hundred objects that span the entire breadth of her still-active career, from her intermedia works of the 1960s to forms of participatory and relational...
State of Mind
State of Mind, the lavishly illustrated companion book to the exhibition of the same name, investigates California’s vital contributions to Conceptual art—in particular, work that emerged in the late 1960s among scattered groups of young artists. The essays reveal connections between the northern and southern California Conceptual art scenes and argue that Conceptualism’s experimental practices and an array of then-new media—performance, site-specific installations, film and video, mail art, and artists’ publications—continue to exert an enormous influence on the artists working today.
Illumination
A celebration of the careers of four extraordinary American women artists. This is the first publication to bring together the work of these four important American women Modernists.
State of Mind
"There is not a trace of the provincial nor the apologetic in the tone of the State of Mind texts. Rather there is a justified claim for the sophisticated originality of this Californian art—sophisticated because the authors have convincingly argued that the artists, for the most part, had many conscious connections and familiarity with art from the rest of the country and Europe, yet were driven by a desire to be independent and different." —Moira Roth, editor and contributor, The Amazing Decade: Women and Performance Art in America 1970-1980 "State of Mind: New California Art circa 1970 is an essential overview of the rich and complex moment when California assumed its role as a leadin...
Writing Intimacy into Feminist Geography
Intimacy, expressed through the feelings and sensations of the researcher, is bound up in the work of a feminist geographer. Tapping into this intimacy and including it in academic writing facilitates a grasping of the effects of power in particular places and initiates a discussion about how to access and tease out what constitutes the intimate both ethically and politically throughout the research process. This collection provides valuable reflections about intimacy in the research process - from encounters in the field, through data analysis, to the various pieces of written work. A global and heterogeneous pool of scholars and researchers introduce personal ways of writing intimacy into feminist geography. As authors expand existing conceptualizations of intimacy and include their own stories, chapters explore the methodological challenges of using intimacy in research as an approach, a topic and a site of interaction. The book is valuable reading for students and researchers of Geography, as well as anyone interested in the ethics and practicalities of feminist, critical and emotional research methodologies.

Feminisms in Geography
In this innovative reader, Pamela Moss and Karen Falconer Al-Hindi present a unique, reflective approach to what feminist geography is and who feminist geographers are. Their carefully crafted textbook invigorates feminist debates about space, place, and knowledges with a fine balance among teaching chapters, reprints, and original essays. Offering an anthology that actually questions the very purpose of an anthology, the editors create and then negotiate a tension between reinforcing and destabilizing scholarly authority. They challenge the idea that there is one set of works that acts as the vision, interpretation, voice, and feel of feminist geography while both reproducing key previously...
