RAVE REVIEWS FOR EXHALTED TRASH EXPO

2006-10-15T08:21:00.000+02:00

The opening of the "Exhalted Trash" Expo at the Columbia College
Chicago Center for Book and Paper Arts was hailed to rave
reviews in the CHICAGO NEWSPAPER.

"You can easily get lost in Richard’s world, even
if you’re not sure you’re understanding it correctly"

Exhalted Trash set-up pics

2006-10-02T20:33:00.000+02:00

Marc Fischer kindly has sent me following set-up pics from the
"Exhalted Trash" expo (Columbia College, Chicago) covering
his mail-art relationship with Bruno Richard.
Judging from the multitude of images they are in love ;)

Bruno Richard / Marc Fischer "Exhalted Trash" Expo in Chicago, USA

2006-10-01T08:39:00.000+02:00

Exhalted Trash - Patrick Miceli and
Marc Fischer/Bruno Richard

Exhibition: October 7 - December 9, 2006
Private Opening: Friday, October 6, 5:30 - 7:30 p.m.
Where: Columbia College Chicago’s Center for Book & Paper Arts
1104 S. Wabash, 2nd floor
Chicago, USA

Paper is cheap, abundant and disposed of almost too easily. Patrick Miceli deals with fast food packaging one of the most pervasive uses of our culture’s use of this resource. As such, it is a relic left in the wake of our consumer society. Each of four installations use their own format or strategy to take recognizable materials and recontextualize them. Each scrap of paper can be seen as an archeological keepsake or fetish item.

Paris-based artist Bruno Richard has been publishing books and magazines of graphic drawings, text and photo-based work since the late 1970s. He and Marc Fischer, Chicago-based artist and member of the groups, Temporary Services and Mess Hall, have engaged in mail correspondence since 1998, resulting in a mountainous barrage of detritus that Fischer has received from Richard. Fischer’s archives of Richard’s multitudinous mailed packages have swelled beyond reason. The scraps of paper that provide the source material for Richard’s work, give the impression of a manic energy. This is, however, a controlled concern with one’s obsessions; an aesthetic contrivance that has not lost its authenticity.
Also check Compound Fracture for
info on a previous expo/collaboration held by Marc and Bruno.

Just got my (eager) hands on a copy of the recently released

It comes in two seperate volumes, the first showing every cover

on previews of unreleased issues (this one is yummy!).

No "Le Dernier Cri" at Rotcrisistrotte...

2005-08-07T12:33:00.000+02:00

The Le Dernier Cri expo in Antwerpen was cancelled last minute,
there was still a lot else being shown, but no Dernier Cri...... pity!
Will have to catch their expo elsewhere... Anyone know where their next
showing will be? Suppose they were hard at work finalizing the upcoming
issue of Hôpital Brut 7... YUM.
Was hoping to post some pics from the venue but you will have to coop
with some new gallery entries of theirs ;)

An original page (ink on paper) from Léo 's recent "Nuevo Rodeo" (LDC):

An original page by Pakito Bolino (ink on paper):

Bruno Richard's "Bichon" in Hara Kiri

2005-08-06T18:52:00.000+02:00

Was reading up in some old Hara Kiri magazines and
have found back a two page feature (in issue 210) Bruno
did for them displaying a "Bichon" sketchbook (32 pages).
As all the 32 original works were placed on the 2 pages
at hand they came out pretty tiny. I have rescanned all
works seperatly and rescalled them to a 500 pixels height size.
You can download a moving .gif of all pages here.
Allow the time to fully load as this one has a 4.9Mb filesize...

Vuillemin "Jex Tampon"

2005-08-06T10:47:00.000+02:00

A new addition I failed to show as of yet is this
super nice Vuillemin "Jex Tampon" (excerpt shown) page.
I really love his early renditions like Hitler=SS, Sueurs d' Homme,
Saine Ardeur, Raoul Teigneux...
Very dark, very critical and still very funny!
I should devote a gallery entry to the site on his art soon..

Two more..

2005-08-05T12:43:00.000+02:00

Two more Placid pieces from the same session.... :)

Recent aquisitions by the "Doury is Dead" Gallery ;)

2005-08-05T12:15:00.000+02:00

Recently got these GORGEOUS pieces of classic Placid,
done in the mid-eighties. Placid 's instanly recognizable
work mixes Wolverton-esque (see Mad magazine) influences
with style concepts which lend to the rockabilly greasers
and the disco fad of the late seventies, early eighties (Mud's
"Tigerfeet" springs to mind) reflected through one of those
whobble mirrors you see at fairs.
See more of Placid's works at the gallery

More on ESDS 73

2005-08-03T17:25:00.000+02:00

As it appears there are two different editions done
from the ESDS 73 issue. All images are present in both copies
but 2 different page orders excist... Part follows the directions
of the artist (Bruno Richard), the other part the editor's choice
(Huger) page order who wanted to break up the color homogeny..
Now the task remains to find out which of the two I got already ;)

Proper "douryisdead" domain name :)

2005-08-02T21:53:00.000+02:00

We haved joined the .tk domain server and the mother
of all my websites can now be found at:
http://www.douryisdead.tk/
Give or take a few of those pop-ups, hell it's free and
sure is much easier to remember as the old url ;)
Of course the old url still stays functional and comes
without those nasty pop-ups.

Caro "Felins Mystere"

2005-08-02T14:04:00.000+02:00

I have been contacted by an old time magazine publisher
who did a couple zines with Marc Caro cover + entries.......
He told me Marc did visit him in the early eighties and did
the "gratte papier" razor cut drawings on the spot in 1/2 an hour.
While we were talking on the subject he remembered he
still should have the originals tucked away in some old boxes
which were stached in his basement the last time he had moved out.
He got back to me the next day showing of his new found treasures :)
Needless to say he would not part with them.
