Special color issue.
Released to inaugurate The Serving Library' s new red, gold, and green space in Liverpool, this issue is both printed in and concerned with color. It includes Emily Gephart's account of the
Spectra Poetry Hoax of 1916, a truncated phone call from Dexter Sinister to Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, the late, great
Muhammad Ali discussing skin color in a 1971 TV interview, reflections on the history of Chroma-key green by Lucas Benjamin, a personal history of paint and painting by
Amy Sillman, and further contributions by T. E. White, Umberto Eco, Stuart Bertolotti-Bailey, Tamara Shopsin, and James Langdon.
Bulletins of The Serving Library is a composite printed / electronic publication from the duo
Stuart Bailey and David Reinfurt,
that follows a direct line from
Dot Dot Dot, the semi-annual journal founded in 2000 and published by
Dexter Sinister. Across the arts and into philosophy, the “bulletins” that make up each issue are first published online as PDFs at
www.servinglibrary.org over a six-month period, then assembled, printed and distributed separately in Europe (by Sternberg Press) and in the U.S.A. (by Dexter Sinister). Each collection makes up a semester's worth of loosely-themed material, with its constituent PDFs grouped together on the website.
The Bulletins ran from 2011 to 2017.
