One of my absolute favourite Graffiti/Street Art books. Incredibly hard to find in good condition but a must for Graffiti scholars. One of the first books to recognise and document tagging as "culture". There are mentions of the Young Lords and the Black Panthers, early mural culture and the ties between those organizations and graffiti which laid the foundations for hip hop.

Since when do 1UP care about German law 😂

Good point. See it as an original and it is actually good value for money. Anyway, a great piece.

Thanks in advance!

Interesting - I've seen a few copies over the years, but never one with the stamps. It has been reissued a few times since and updated to include new songs, but I think without the Banksy designed cover. Pretty uncommon now, and I can only find a couple of copies in the £30 - £75 range with no mention of the stamps.
The Banksy cover version of "And the ass saw the angel" is also pretty uncommon nowadays....

The interest in Miles`s work came about from a forum member posting pictures of his Miles Aldridge/Harland Miller print. Overall I find this book thread to be a mine of information and full of easy often inexpensive introductions to unknown....to me....artists.

Nice book Astarti,
Surely these marks something to do with Penguin Publishing? The image the same as their logo, and they seem to have a connection with Mr Cave?
Would this be a way of owning the rights to the book? Bit like the disclaimer that's normally typed inside to stop people copying?

Recommended Art Books, by Cocteau 101 on Apr 7, 2021 13:45:49 GMT 1, For those who have found Adam Pendleton in the past few years, this book may have slipped under the radar. Published by Siglio Press in 2016 and long sold out and virtually impossible now to find. Becoming Imperceptible with wrap around poster cover (of which there were 3 I believe).
Press Release below:IN COLLABORATION WITH THE CONTEMPORARY ARTS CENTER, NEW ORLEANS ADAM PENDLETON: BECOMING IMPERCEPTIBLE WITH ESSAYS BY ANDREA ANDERSSON, NAOMI BECKWITH, KITTY SCOTT & STEPHEN SQUIBB PUB DATE: APRIL 4, 2016 PB with french fold dj 7.125 x 9.25 144 pages b/w illustrations Reframed, reconditioned, and perpetually reoccurring, found images have served as Adam Pendleton’s primary tools and source material throughout his practice. Becoming Imperceptible follows the logic of Pendleton’s museum installations, constructing social and aesthetic histories, comprised of images in process and inscribed in the structure of their container. Including Pendleton’s texts “Black Dada” and “Amiri Baraka,” and drawing on a diverse archive that traverses European, African and American avant-gardes and civil rights movements of the last century—from Dada and Bauhaus to Black Lives Matter literature, from Language poetry to Black Power poetics, from Conceptual art to African Independence movements—Becoming Imperceptible frames a complex dialogue between culture and system. It embodies Pendleton’s practice by inviting the reader into an unfolding conversation about race and history, art and form. Becoming Imperceptible is the first in in a collaborative series of artist’s books with the Contemporary Arts Center, New Orleans in which each year an artist is invited to intervene in the history and space of the book. All ofthe books in this collection will be different sizes, on different paper, with very different sensibilities and aesthetics, but each one will be a paperback with a french-fold dust jacket that features a poster-sized artwork by the artist as well as a booklet of critical essays about each artist’s work. Becoming Imperceptible has three different dust jackets and includes essays by Andrea Andersson, Naomi Beckwith, Kitty Scott and Stephen Squibb. The exhibition that this book accompanies opens April 1, 2016 and runs until June 16. Contemporary Arts Center is located at 900 Camp Street, New Orleans, Louisiana. ADAM PENDLETON (b. 1984, Richmond, Virginia) is a conceptual artist known for his multi-disciplinary practice, which moves fluidly between painting, publishing, photographic collage, video and performance. His workhas most recently been recently exhibited in the Belgian Pavilion at the Venice Biennale and Pace Gallery, London.
