| Dear Friends,
After quite a bit of work and deliberation the inaugural
issue of Dots and Quotes is finally out.

Yes,
that's right an art criticism magazine brought into the world
from the sensibilities of yours truly and west coast co-conspirator
Sam Gould.
First issue includes:
• 2002 Whitney Biennial
curator Larry Rinder writes about the inspiring curatorial
method of Stephanie Cannizzo that "will never be taught
in a curatorial program. Which is too bad."
• Harrell Fletcher is interviewed by Jim
Drain. Questions are asked such as "Why are people are
so apathetic?" and "Who are the powerless?" and
of course "Have
you ever had a mystical experience?".
• Sheila Heti explains how to run a lecture
series based on her experience with her own, though she suggests
you don't.
• Curator and New York personality Adam
Kleinman explains why Phil Spector's "Wall of Sound",
the films of Terrence Malick and Wong Kar-Wai, and Ed Ruscha,
produce similar chemical reactions in your brain and could
be categorized
as "shoegaze" arts.
• Cabela's is a 400 acre gun/ lazyboy outlet,
a themed waterpark, and NASCAR track. Hesse McGraw, expert
on all
things Midwest, investigates this and other huge things.
• Jon Rubin gives Jose del Pesco a golf
lesson, while explaining why he's making his own art school,
amongst other things.
• Highly prolific artist, curator, designer
Rich Jacobs discusses his personal trajectory with art and
skateboarding.
• Greg Scholette explains the latest roll-out
of enterprise culture- art collectives.
• Scott Rigby and Marc Fisher have a talk
about BASEKAMP, Philadelphia's space for collective effort
since 1998.
• Plus a lot more*.
So
order an issue, pass on
the link, and let us know what you think.
