Gift ideas for the 3 toughest on your list #1 The Manipulative Mother/Father in Law: Believing the apple doesn’t fall from the family tree, early in your relationship you looked at your significant other’s mater/ pater and thought, I could live with that at age!” Over the years however you have come to appreciate how wonderfully individual your spouse really is and how much you have come to despise the parent for twisting them into undeservedly guilty knots. Get them Erik Kessels’ “In Almost Every Picture, #6. #6 compiles passport photos of the same woman over 60 years in a sort of minimalist dawn to dusk biography. Dutch artist, curator and designer, Kessels is best known as a book publisher specializing in absurdist photography. This poetic gesture will be totally lost on them, of course but what a joy to watch them pretend to understand! Screw Amazon! Buy this or other great books at aggeiger.com #erikkessels #erikkesselsphotography #giftbooks #blackfridaybooks #shoplocal

Gift ideas for the 3 toughest on your list #2: The Gone Girl/ Gone Guy. Wanting to avoid awkward moments w/ the friends and family during obligatory holiday you the proverbial “It’s not you, it’s me” talk. However sincere and true as that may be it still wounds. Show them you will always remember them fondly with a hard to find gem from the master of appropriation, Richard Prince. The source ambiguity and the banal subject matter of the photographs in this collection collapse the distinction between fiction and non-fiction, real and unreal providing a familiarity and an intimacy so accessible that it could be me...it could be you...or it could be the girl next door. They probably will miss the poetry in this gesture but then that’s why it didn’t work out anyway. Buy now or you could check out all the other great books at Aggeiger.com Screw Amazon an please shop local! #richardprince #blackfridaybooks #shoplocal

Gift ideas for the 3 toughest people on your holiday list: #3 The Gender-Fluid Step-Sibling/ Tik Tok Phenom: What do you get someone whose lip-synch and prank driven memes thrill over 250k followers? They stopped reading anything a decade ago (when they were 5yrs old) and “history” to them means everything after 11 seconds. Get them “New York: The New Art Scene”. A photo compendium of the pillars of the original social media temple by Ugo Mulas. A very rare book, even our distressed copy is sought after. Of course, it documents the Sixties New York milieu that both spawned and shaped Warhol and his “It” girls and boys. Your sibling might appreciate discovering the bold gender bending pioneers of the period. Or maybe, since they are monetizing those followers and shopping for a Tesla this weekend ahead of their driver’s license test, they can afford their own copy. You can just get them a heartfelt hallmark card instead. See this and more great books at https://aggeiger.com #warhol #rauschenberg #johns #rosenquist #giftideas

@artattherendon fantastic show, recharging my faith in the human condition. Some 30 performances from soloists and bands, ensembles, dancers and more from around the world in a sort of unison performing the same piece. Amazing, uplifting. Tomorrow and Sunday.
