{"product_id":"under-the-radar","title":"Under the Radar (Reprint): Underground Zines and Self-Publications 1965 – 1975","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe mid-1960s witnessed a boom in underground and selfpublished works. Hectographs, mimeographs, and offset printing not only allowed for the production of small, lowcost print runs but also promote a unique aesthetic: using wild mock-ups, »messianic amateurs« combined typescript aesthetics, handwriting, scribbled drawings, assemblages of collaged visuals, porn photos, snapshots, and comic strips. The typography consciously frees itself, in parallel to a liberalization of linguistic and visual forms of expression in the name of a new »sensibility«.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book (which appears in conjunction with an exhibition at the Weserburg in Bremen) is the first to present the underground and self-published works that came out of West Germany in such depth, while also showing the internationalcontext in which they emerged: not as an anecdotal history but as an attempt to tap into the aesthetic cosmos of a Do-It-Yourself rebellion, one that also challenges us to take a new look at the current boom in »independent publishing«, the risograph aesthetic, and so on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePages: 368\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 225 × 335 mm \/ 8.8 × 13.1”\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Ring binding\u003cbr\u003eLanguage: English\u003cbr\u003eYear: 2019\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Spector Books\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Spector Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31986554077269,"sku":"SBUT209","price":52.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0491\/5749\/products\/1_b97beee0-a845-43e2-95a0-ca86ce98a178.jpg?v=1586281308","url":"https:\/\/www.northeastshop.com\/en\/products\/under-the-radar","provider":"North East","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
