The Village: Small Encampments
THE VILLAGE: SMALL ENCAMPMENTS
By Stephanie Syjuco
2009
full color, paperback, 92 pages
US $29.95
Expanding on an earlier photographic series, this book documents an installation that intersects two seemingly disparate narratives: a documentary portrait of my domestic space with a completely constructed and fantasized “homeland.” Culled from tourist photos of the Philippines downloaded from the internet, the small cut-out dioramas form little embedded colony encampments and outposts within an apartment environs.

I’m a Park and You’re a Deer

This book began as a discussion on public space with Golden Gate Park serving as a potential site of fieldwork. The park is in a perpetual state of mutation – it is complicated by each of us. Golden Gate Park stands unto itself as a site of pleasure and curiosity as much as it embodies the legal, social, material and symbolic desires that form the city of San Francisco. Battling historical and political narratives, the construction of publics and counter-publics, leisure space and ecology became part of the workshop’s dialogue through collective investigation. This inquiry, as chronicled in this publication, extends beyond San Francisco into an international exploration of parks and public spaces. “I’m A Park And You’re A Deer” is a continuation of this dialogue through diverse formats including: interviews, short fiction, a musical score, essays, photography, and drawings. It is the third book edited by the California College of the Arts Social Practice Workshop.

Color&Color is an artist-curated publication guided by the duality of two thematic colors per issue. The premier issue, Color&Color #0, features Orange & Blue with work by Deric Carner, Amanda Curreri, Renee Gertler, Jason Hanasik, Sam Lopes, Celia Manley, Jeremy Chase Sanders, Erik Scollon, Skye Thorstenson, and Christine Wong Yap.
Color&Color is conceived as a mobile venue in which to present new work of artists we respect and with whom we want to work. We hope that with each issue the publication can connect artists with new audiences and expanded dialogue. Not wanting to rely solely on traditional venues like galleries and museums, Color&Color presents artwork via the serial print medium. This opens up access to new spatial-temporal configurations for the work. The publication is available both in printed and digital format. Proceeds from sales go directly to future issues of Color&Color.
