Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Live Through This brings together more than 30 of the most exciting art, music, and fashion personalities who are changing art making in New York. New art practice is now intimately tied to the lived experience of the artists themselves, and this book, through more than three hundred color photographs of artists, artworks, studios, off-duty behaviors, zines, concerts, openings, and parties, illustrates and examines the nature of this relationship. Thoughtful criticism is provided by five essays: Larry Rinder writes about the groundbreaking nature of Fort Thunder and Providence scene--, Jeffrey Deitch offers an historical and personal look at New York's underground, musician Philip Guichard describes the past five years of music in the city, digital artist Cory Arcangel talks about collectives and new media, while Kathy Grayson provides a behind-the-scenes thesis. Major attention is paid to artists working in New York City, but also in Providence and San Francisco. The list includes several major names in art, fashion, and music, but some decidedly underground ones, thus emphasizing community affiliations and working collaborations. This is a most authentic look at what New York's art scene truly is, organized and produced by the members themsleves through extensive collaboration. Edited by Jeffrey Deitch and Kathy Grayson.

Essays by Cory Arcangel, Jeffrey Deitch, Philip Guichard and Lawrence Rinder. Paperback, 11.5 x 11.5 in./114 pgs / 200 color.

3.0 out of 5 stars let's not over-hype, November 5, 2006
By zen (NYC) - See all my reviews
My main gripe is that this paperback is shoddy and the pages come apart after a couple
of reads.
Otherwise, fun, typical collegetown artwork by pampered kidz who never heard of Iraq.
The photos try to shock us with underground daring, but in reality, the antics are frat rat.
Still, the artwork is energetic and there are fairly fresh design elements.
I think that this book would be useful to red state artists who want to see what the cool
people are up to.

5.0 out of 5 stars You Couldn't Live Through This, September 30, 2005
Peter Schjeldahl said "artists tend to show up in gangs. You come to the city with your friends, meet other friends, hang out in bars, become a group, and foment a movement-" and that's exactly what Deitch and Grayson capture with this book: An ecstatic moment frozen in vivid print and pictures and then drawn out in time for your (re)viewing pleasure. With over 140 pages of blisteringly cool arts and letters, this volume not only conveys the non stop creative action of this scene but gives you Grayson's truly insider perspective. Countless candid photos documenting both the art-making and their accompanying parties, give you a real sense of a community of desire- talented young people coming together in a specific place and time over some things they love: making art and causing trouble. This book is at once a record and a product of its movement. I'll never be able to read a museum catalog again.
