[Local events] Link to Selected Durations video ("Artists' Books Unshelved")

[David Abel]

In the latest episode of the /Artists’ Books Unshelved/ video series, 
host Yuka Petz looks at and discusses two artist's books that originate 
in performance, /I wish to say . . . vol. 2/ by Sheryl Oring, and 
/Selected Durations/, published by the Black Rock Press at the 
University of Nevada in Reno in 2017, which features my text (a score 
for verbal performance), in a format initally conceived and prototyped 
by Katherine Kuehn, and ultimately designed and realized by Amy Thompson.

I'm very gratified that the book was selected for the series, and 
thoroughly pleased with the treatment, and so I humbly invite you to 
view the ten-minute episode on the Bainbridge Museum's /YouTube/ channel 
via this link:

Many thanks to Yuka Petz for her engagement with the work; to Inge 
Bruggeman for her solicitation of the book for publication by the Black 
Rock Press; to Buzz Spector for his essay that accompanies the 
publication; but above all to the genius of Katherine Kuehn and Amy 
Thompson, whose collaborations were responsible for the extraordinary 
realization of the work in book form.

Note: The /Artists’ Books Unshelved/ episode includes an excerpt from a 
recorded performance of the text; the complete performance (just two 
minutes long) can be viewed here:
