NYC: Michael Schmelling Has a Book
- story THE FADER
How sick would it be if you had $500? You could make it rain on your cat (Seriously I know you are not going to a strip club and we know you have a cat. Maybe a dog.) or you could buy one of these Michael Schmelling limited edition prints from his beautiful new book The Plan. Actually, we haven’t seen it in person yet, just looked through the website book photos. Which are really intense. Looks like The Plan is to get a lot of stuff in your home and leave it all there forever until you die or it all rots and then Michael Schmelling comes over and takes pictures of it and then you look simultaneously cool and like a retard. Give Michael your money or just go to the book release celebration tonight from 6PM to 8PM at Aperture on 27th.
Tiny Vices Books
- story THE FADER
Tim Barber, endless smatterer of photo and mishmash ephemera on his longtime website, Tiny Vices, has begun a book branch of his electronic brain, aptly named Tiny Vices Books. The travelling TV shows had often been a purposefully overwhelming hullabaloo of endless photographers and visual artists, but the books have calmed and coagulated, one TVer at a time. Barber’s got good taste (our taste) and will be publishing work by many FADER photographers. Longtime friend Michael Schmelling’s book is out now, along with books by Aurel Schmidt with whom we would like to trade minds, collager Kim Krans and Barber himself, and in the near future he’ll have a book by one of our most frequent contributors, Jason Nocito. As folks with a website and print edition ourselves, it’s a nice parallel kinship.
