Both exhibitions, “Subway Series: The New York Yankees and the American Dream” and “Subway Series: The New York Mets and Our National Pastime”, feature contemporary artworks, revered memorabilia, images and objects that address the longstanding traditions of baseball and its cultural presence in America today. The catalogue contains four essays with corresponding black and white imagery and cartoons, and features color reproductions of the work of 46 contemporary artists.

OUT OF STOCK Valeska Soares: Follies This exhibition catalogue of works by Brooklyn-based artist Valeska Soares (b. 1957, Belo Horizonte, Brazil) features installations, sculpture, photography, and video that mix conceptual rigor with a baroque sensibility. The exhibition takes its cue from a recurring motif in her work—the garden folly—that, like her artistic practice, embodies the fragile boundaries between control and desire. Soares shares with her contemporaries, such as Polly Apfelbaum, Leonardo Drew, Felix González-Torres, Mona Hatoum, and Rachel Whiteread, an interest in expanding the critical framework of minimalism. Her work often subverts or parodies the cool, geometric aesthetic of minimalism and disrupts notions of purity and rationality through an assertion of the baroque. Color illustrations are supported by text in both English and Spanish. CONTEMPORARY ART 2005, 8.5 x 11.25 inches, 178 pp, color illus. Hardcover, ISBN 0-917535-01-4 code: brx vs L-6
