Art Metropole – Little Cockroach Press (1996-2000)
Series of 20 artists’ pamphlets, originally distributed free-of-charge by Art Metropole to selected recipients between April 1996 and July 2000. Dedicated to the memory of Jorge Zontal of General Idea.
Like much of what Art Metropole does the series mixed established artists (AA Bronson, Stan Douglas, Alfredo Jaar, Linda Montano, Maurizio Nannucci, etc) with then-emerging talents (Kate Bush, Sandy Plotnikott, Jinhan Ko) and celebrities (filmmaker John Waters, Sonic Youth).
