Looks like leather to me too. Sorry I can't be more insightful.

You could say what kind of leather it is.

This is the only bullshit I could find about the "What's Up, Doc?" exhibition:

I'd be a part of whatever exhibition so long as part of my ticket was paid or lodging would be provided, hah. Seems like a nice excuse to visit friends/lady friends, anyway. Even if it ends up in his next book, like the Centre Pompidou in Desistance...

Apparently that exhibit is open until December 16th. I found a photo featuring some of the Sotos stuff.
"Pictured here:
Darja Bajagić, "Brittanee Drexel ft. Pierrot (Smile)", 2017
&
Peter Sotos, "Holly and Jessica (From the Archives of Peter Sotos)", 1977 - ongoing"

There was a closeup photo of that Sotos exhibit that I saw a few days ago but it seems to have been removed.

Probably a stretch but does anyone know of any stores still stocking Desistance or Mine?

the presentation text is pure postmodern bullshit artwank but I'll go visit the thing for the Sotos material and eventually post a pic or two here

I think, maybe, Darja Bajagic's work has been mentioned here? I don't recognize her name but her art looks familiar for some reason. Esp. the "kill a pedophile" imagery.

Just got a copy of Comfort and Critique on ebay for £102. :)

Just want to read it, money is fine, I was just gonna buy a bunch of t shirts this pay day and a book of Otto Dix paintings and the boxset of Sienfield series. I will abide.

I was trying to grab that Timeless On the Prowl issue but the same person was bidding pretty hard on that and Playground Sex. Ah, well.

I finished reading Comfort & Critique for the second time yesterday. The point at which the narrative starts to become more focused and the newspaper articles begin to run backwards all the way to the beginnings of the abduction is one of my favorite things I've read from Sotos.

Another pic from that exhibit.

I would think his newspaper collection would be considerably more beat up and stained.

While researching her work I noticed she names Mikko Aspa as one of her favorite living artists in Interview magazine of all places

I missed out on an English copy of 'Special' on eBay last night.  Added it to my watch list in the morning, went about my day and totally forgot to make a bid later that evening. The real kicker? It' sold on a single bid for £10! D'oh!

Anyone read Breillat's Pornocracy? I liked the film but I mostly picked up the novel for the Sotos afterword. Not one of his most lucid pieces of writing...
