1960年代中ごろから1970年代後半まで活動したカウンターカルチャーの新聞・雑誌ネットワーク「アンダーグラウンド・プレス・シンジケート（UPS）」。UPSの地下出版物に掲載されたカウンターカルチャーにおけるマリファナのさまざまな図版・デザインをコレクションした一冊。

The youth uprising, now simply called “The Sixties,” was fed by one of the greatest booms in publishing history. The Underground Press Syndicate (UPS) began as a loose confederation of five papers in 1966, and within a few years swelled to over 500 across the world, reaching millions of readers. They “spread like weed,” said the UPS director, weed-dealer, and eventual founder of High Times, Tom Forcade. The metaphor was apt: the UPS spurred the legalization movement, and weed became its totem. 

Weed was so pervasive it became a helpful means for government agencies to crack down on the UPS. Weed came to emblematize activist groups, and added a touch of flair to the mastheads of UPS titles. Weed permeated UPS pages, with gaps in text crammed with weed-inspired “spot illustratios”.

Heads Together collects these drawings, shining a light on lesser-known names in the stoner-art canon, and many who weren’t names at all, as no signature was attached. It also compiles guides for growing weed from the period that were treated like contraband by the CIA. Activist-oriented, psychedelic rolling papers are showcased too.

As pot now fast-tracks toward legalization in the U.S. and beyond, its once incendiary status is brought into odd relief. Pot’s profiteers of the corporate market today do not reflect those who fought for legalization, or the Black and Latino populations strategically criminalized for pot well before hippies were targeted, and long after.

The art in this book speaks to a time when pot was smoked with optimism, as something potentially good for society and people, capable of activating profound transformation in the face of corrupt and powerful forces.

With Oral Histories by: Ishmael Reed, John Sinclair, Marjorie Heins, Mariann Wizard-Vasquez, Abe Peck.

日本人彫刻家、藤原信の作品集。

「藤原信氏は日本人の彫刻家ですが、彼は生まれ故郷である日本の山奥の小さな寺院から遠く離れたヨーロッパで人生の大半を過ごしてきました。この本は、彼の石工としての仕事と、世界を理解しようとする彼の絶え間ない遊び心と本物の粘り強さにまつわる非常に個人的な記録です。また、彼の名前の由来である『信（まこと / 真実）』に従い、石という一見最も不可解な素材との関わりについても書かれています。この作品は、彼が大きな紙に書き込んだ観察、出来事、洞察などのストーリーを集めたもので、私たちを共感させてくれます。長い時間をかけて行われる、削ったり磨いたりする数え切れないほどの反復作業、偵察、認識、掘削、移動などの準備作業、造園や設置などの後処理、同僚に協力を求めたり、友人の作業を共有したりする道中での多くの社会的交流などを見ることができます。彼の生み出す世界は、『やらないこと』をいつでも可能な選択肢と考える私たちに、無条件で恣意的ではないものへの感謝の念を抱かせます。彼が亡くなった後、私たちは誠意を持ってこの本を仕上げることになりましたが、残念ながら最後の承認を得ることはできませんでした。」 ー アンドレアス・シュナイダー（Andreas Schneider / デザイナー）

（twelvebooksによる本書紹介文）

"Makoto Fujiwara is a Japanese sculptor who has worked for most of his life in Europe, far from the land of his origin, a small temple deep in the Japanese mountains. This book has evolved over the past four years, a document of his work as a stonemason and a very personal account of his unceasing playful curiosity and authentic tenacity in seeking to understand the world; following the vocation of his given name,—Makoto, ‘truthfully’—, his engagement with a seemingly most impenetrable material: stone. This collection of stories, streams of observations, happenings, and insights, scrawled by the artist on large sheets of paper, draws us into complicity as we become witness to countless iterations—chiselling and polishing—that progress over extended intervals of time; the preparatory work of scouting, recognizing, heaving, and moving; the aftermath of landscaping and setting in place; the many social interactions along the way as he invites colleagues to collaborate, and shares the labours of friends. The world that unfolds inspires appreciation of the unconditional and non-arbitrary in us who regard the ‘un-do’ as an always available option. After Makoto’s passing, we are left to finish this book in good faith, sadly missing his final seal of approval." —Andreas Schneider

Giorgio di Noto The Iceberg, Edition Patrick Frey, 2017

Hardcover. 128 Seiten. 70 Farbabbildungen. 16.5 × 24 cm.

価格：7,776円（税込み）

インターネットは氷山とみなされます。一般ユーザーが目にする表層ウェブの下には深層ウェブが広がっています。氷山のおよそ90％がいわゆる深層ウェブといわれており、わたしたちが日ごろ利用している表層ウェブの下には検索エンジンの手の届かない、暗号化され、常に進化している匿名のネットワークがあります。ダークネットは法の及ばない無人地帯。あらゆるものが跋扈していますが、痕跡は何も残らず、特別なソフトウェアを使用しないとそこにアクセスすることはできません。本シリーズ「The Iceberg」は、消費者の目を引くようデザインされたダークウェブのドラッグ広告から収集したストックフォトとオリジナル写真によって構成されています。

小型カメラやスマートフォンで撮影されたオリジナル写真は、薬物密売人の撮影スキルの低さと画質の悪さにより、幻想的で抽象的に見えます。オリジナル写真は自然光の下では見ることができず、麻薬取締官が捜査のために使用するブラックライトを当てるとページに浮かび上がってきます。匿名でアップロードされ自動的に消去されるこれらの写真は、表層ウェブでは追跡することも見ることもできず、深層ウェブの薄暗い秘密のスペースに一時的にしか存在しません。

The Internet can be regarded as an iceberg: the tip is the so-called surface web, the digital terrain we know and surf by means of search engines, social networks, blogs and news sites. The submerged part, roughly 90% of the iceberg, is the so-called deep web. Under the surface web that we use day in, day out, lies an encrypted and constantly evolving network of total anonymity, beyond the reach of search engines. This darknet is a lawless no-man’s land, only accessible using specific software, where anything goes and nothing is traceable, and where illicit online business, especially in contraband, proliferates. The Iceberg features a selection of stock images and original photographs drawn from the myriad ads for drug sales on the dark web designed to catch the consumer’s eye.

The original photographs, probably taken with small cameras or smartphones, often look surreal and abstract due to the mysterious, exotic aesthetic of the subject-matter, on the one hand, and the low quality of the photos or inferior skills of the drug-pushing photographers themselves, on the other. Unlike the stock pictures, these original photographs are invisible in The Iceberg under normal light: printed in invisible ink, they can only be viewed under ultraviolet light – the same light drug enforcers use to look for traces of narcotics. Anonymously uploaded and probably designed to self-erase once they’ve served their function, these pictures are not traceable or visible on the surface web, and only exist temporarily in this dark, secret space on the deep web.

제목: 화폐 언어: 영어 발행처: 에디션 패트릭 프레이(Edition Patrick Frey) 편집: 프릴 비어슬리 크레머스(Prill Vieceli Cremers) 디자인: 프릴 비어슬리 크레머스 발행일: 2016년 5월 31일 ISBN: 978-3-905929-91-1 페이지 수: 256 크기: 240 x 330 mm 가격: €60

이것은 정치적 주제, 역사적 이정표, 명사, 지위의 상징, 풍경들과 같은 지폐 상의 그림들에 관한 책이다. 지폐는 이상화된 세계를 선언하는 미니-포스터다. 화폐는 미스터리다. 금전적 가치가 시각적 상관관계를 추구한다. 예로, 유로화 지폐들은 다리의 은유를 통해 통합된 유럽의 개념을 전달하려 애쓴다. 유로화가 현찰로 도입된 2002년에, 약 127억 유로 지폐가 유통되었다. (하나의 이상적 세계를 위한 127억개의 다리 말이다.)

지폐 상의 그림들은 육체 노동에 종사하는 강인하고 행복한 사람 등의 이야기를 들려주고 힘을 찬미한다. 그들은 교육받을 기회가 있고, 풍부한 동물상(動物相)을 지닌 환상적인 경관에 산다. 화폐 도상은 유사한 모티프들을 쓰고 기본적인 패턴을 반복하곤 한다. 인물화들은 전세계에 한결같이 구성된 제스처와 얼굴 표정이 파토스 공식에 따라 묘사된다.

<화폐>에서 타니아 프릴과 알베르토 비어슬리, 세바스챤 크레머스는 “그러한 정신이 지폐들의 장식 속에서 말하게” 하고, 발터 벤야민이 말했듯 무가치한 종이 쪽지에 가치를 각인시키기 위해 어떤 그림이 사용되는지를 보여준다.

이 그래픽 디자이너 트리오 프릴 비어슬리 크레머스는 2006년부터 에디션 패트릭 프레이를 위한 다양한 책들을 디자인해 왔다. <화폐>는 타니아 프릴과 알베르토 비어슬리, 세바스챤 크레머스의 처음으로 공동 작업한 아티스트 북이다.

BAD BONN SONG BOOK

Edited by Patrick Boschung, Daniel Fontana, Stefanie Mauron, Adeline Mollard, Katharina Reidy

With texts by Conrad Lambert, Chan Marshall, Benedikt Sartorius and Christophe Schenk in English, French and German.

Concept & book design Adeline Mollard, Katharina Reidy

Published by Edition Patrick Frey, 2016 164, XX p.

Seeing as notes are generally the best way of putting music on paper, this publication, celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Bad Bonn music venue in Fribourg, takes the form of a song book. Then again, since hardly any of the bands that play there actually notate their music, it’s an unusual song book that’s likely to appeal to laymen as well. For two and a half years, artists performing at the Bad Bonn were asked to put their songs on paper. The results proved as diverse as their musical styles and personalities, including everything from sheet music and lyrics with guitar tabs to photos and drawings, it’s all there. The contributions show a side of the musicians’ creativity that doesn’t show on stage or on their recordings. Café Bad Bonn in Düdingen, a small town in the Fribourg canton of Switzerland, was once a health resort and spa, but for nearly 25 years now it’s been a magnet for mobile music lovers by the lake Schiffenensee. Where Bonnstrasse comes to an end in the middle of nowhere stands a building. Behind its modest, almost staid, exterior is a venue with a surprisingly diverse lineup of artists you might see billed in London, Berlin or Paris. Whether metal, anti-folk, country, electronica, indie or hip hop, there’s room here for every niche and fringe in the popular music scene. Some 2500 bands have played this little stage since 1991, including big names like My Bloody Valentine, Bonnie Prince Billy, The Prodigy, Queens of the Stone Age, Ministry, Cat Power, The Young Gods and plenty of other international and local bands. Its club concerts aside, the highlight of the year is Bad Bonn’s annual Kilbi Festival. Acclaimed “Switzerland’s best festival” by renowned music critics and cultural journalists, the event has become a permanent fixture of the nation’s performing arts program.
