‘Formed in 1973, the Detroit band Destroy All Monsters was a wild and reckless synthesis of psychedelia, proto-punk, heavy metal, noise and performance art. The collective hailed from Ann Arbor, Michigan, and consisted of Cary Loren, Mike Kelley, Niagara and Jim Shaw (with later members including Ron Asheton of the Stooges and Michael Davis of the MC5). Later emerging as extremely distinctive individual artists, collectively the group forged new terrain in art, music, performance, theater and video. Destroy All Monsters released very little recorded music until Thurston Moore issued a three-CD compilation in 1994, but they published six issues of a now legendary and much sought-after zine, also titled Destroy All Monsters. This publication collects those six zines, released between 1976 and 1979, and also includes parts of a lost seventh issue that never saw publication. The Destroy All Monsters zines comprise a vibrant array of collage, writing, photography and other miscellanea by Kelley, Loren, Niagara and Shaw, and together provide insight into the collective’s kaleidoscopic vision of the dystopian values of their time.
“The new reprint volume lacks any introductory or explanatory text; true to Destroy All Monsters’ anarchic spirit, it plunges the reader straight into a frenzied dystopic world. Détourned comic strips, images pulled from pulp magazines, film stills, and tabloid news clippings clash with saccharine greeting cards, family Polaroids, and children’s coloring-book pages, while Op-art backgrounds, scrawled doodles, stickers, and rubber stamps compound the visual pandemonium. All of this is faithfully reproduced in the new facsimile, which is hand-bound and printed on paper of different weights, colors, and finishes—from coated stock to copy paper in elementary-school pastels. Each copy also includes a unique original spray painting by Loren, giving this lavish reproduction an authentically DIY accent.” Gwen Allen, Bookforum review

In 1974, while attending the University of Michigan, he co-founded the proto-punk, experimental noise band Destroy All Monsters (DAM). The member of the band were: Mike Kelley on drums and vocals, Jim Shaw on vocals and squeeze toys, Niagara (Lynn Rovner) on vocals, and Cary Loren on guitar and vocals. Having met each other at the university, DAM convened in the basement of Kelley’s student accommodation, also known as ‘God’s Oasis Drive-In Church’, which soon became a communal space for the band to collaborate. Image below shows dirt in a tiny bag from ‘God’s Oasis Drive-In Church’, being part to this edition.

This leporello was published by Galerie van Gelder Editions om behalf of Jill Magid’s first solo exhibition in The Netherlands. ‘A colossus of porcelain towers four meters towards the ceiling: the Empire State Building of New York. The work, entitled House 83.5, exists out of hundreds of relief tiles which Jill Magid made at De Porseleyne Fles in Delft. Displayed on a shelf alongside the Delft Blue tower is the complete collection of KLM miniature houses, numbered 1 – 83. The miniatures are modelled after characteristic “Old Dutch Houses”, filled with the Bols Royal Jenever alcohol, and given away as “drinks” to First Class passengers—avoiding a law that disallows airline companies from giving gifts to its passengers.’

‘Tom Johnson is a composer who uses logic and mathematical models, such as combinatorics of numbers, in his music. The patterns he finds while “looking at numbers” can also be explored in drawings. This book focuses on such drawings, their beauty and their mathematical meaning.’
