At long last, our first zine project, Cultural ReProducers: Propositions, Manifestos &
Experiments is finally in print. This risographed think-tank explores the intersection of contemporary artmaking and family life through text and images from 28 international artists published by and with the collective
Temporary Services in glorious duotone with a centerfoldout poster of the Cultural ReProducers manifesto. Due to the multilayered nature of the zine (44 pages in 3 colors with a centerfoldout manifesto poster) it was painstakingly collated, folded and stapled by hand and there are just 400-ish copies in existence.
The zine is also available as a lovely e-book and archival PDFs at $2 each through the Temporary Services imprint
Half Letter Press.
