Publications
Since 2009, An Art Service has functioned as a book publisher specializing in limited-run artist publications. In keeping with the laconic inventiveness of artists' books of the 1960s and 1970s, An Art Service presents publications that astutely translate a particular theme or facet of an artist's practice into cleverly no-frills books. An Art Service is pleased to present a publishing program that ranges from artists books to monographs and exhibition catalogues, spotlighting both emergent contemporary practices as well the archival works of older artists.
