- The killing art : a novel of suspense / by Santlofer, Jonathan,1946-(CARDINAL)350625;
History and fiction collide with deadly consequences in the third Kate McKinnon novel -- a story of bitter revenge, where the past invades the present and a decades-old secret proves fatal Kate McKinnon has lived many lives, from Queens cop to Manhattan socialite, television art historian, and the woman who helped the NYPD capture the Death Artist and the Color Blind killer. But that's the past. Now, devastated by the death of her husband, Kate is attempting to quietly rebuild her life as a single woman. Gone are the Park Avenue penthouse and designer clothes. Now it's a funky Chelsea loft, downtown fashion, and even a hip new haircut as Kate plunges back into her work -- writing a book about America's most celebrated artistic era, the New York School of the 1940s and '50s, a circle that included Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, and Mark Rothko. But when a lunatic starts slashing the very paintings she is writing about -- along with their owners -- Kate is once again tapped by the NYPD. As she deciphers the evidence -- cryptic images that reveal both the paintings and the people who will be the next targets -- Kate is drawn into a world where art and art history provide lethal clues. The Killing Art is Jonathan Santlofer's most gripping and chilling story yet, but that isn't the only reason the novel is remarkable. The author, who is also an acclaimed artist, has created works of art just for the book that tantalize and challenge readers by using well-known symbols in innovative ways, allowing them to decode the clues along with Kate. A masterwork of both suspense fiction and art, The Killing Art will impress both thriller readers and art fans as the plot twists and turns toward a shocking climax.

- Doug Meyer : Wyldlands / by Meyer, Doug,artist.(CARDINAL)877841; Spector, Mark,contributor.(CARDINAL)879410; Dunlop, Beth,1947-contributor.(CARDINAL)756756; Roskams, Mark,photography.(CARDINAL)879678; Daniel Cooney Fine Art (Gallery),publisher,host institution.(CARDINAL)873702;
"Featuring never before exhibited work made by the artist during social isolation, WyldLands features 15 sculptures, future relics, memorabilia, and ephemera that transport us to the year 2036, a time when escapist playgrounds have allowed people to endure living through a series of pandemics that began with the 2020 COVID-19 crisis. Meyer, who maintains a successful design business with his brother Gene, is best known for his dreamlike installations that celebrate the intersection of fantasy, fiction, and real life narratives. Long fascinated by history and storytelling, Meyer creates immersive miniature environments that serve as metaphors and visual analogues for the enduring challenges we face in an increasingly chaotic world. When the COVID-19 pandemic began in March 2020, the New York City-based artist retreated to his Chelsea studio were he could immerse himself in creating a futurist utopia known as "WyldLands." In Meyer's alternate universe, we discover that 2020 was merely the start of a series of bad things to come. Meyer imagines that in 2023, a novel SARS virus would emerge, resulting in the death of 6.5% of the world's population. In the wake of this catastrophe, Meyer envisions the United States splitting in half, with the western states seceding to form WestAmerica Confederation. As the world is forced to cope with the on-going pressures of social isolation, the fictional private equity firm CherenkoƯMoksovitz Capital LP begins developing WyldLands as an "escapist playground in a time of confinement" in the Sonoran Desert. Meyer envisions WyldLands as a modern take on grandiose playgrounds of yore, from Roman Caligula's Roman compound Horti Lamiani, Francois Racine de Monvilles 18th century masterpiece the Ďsert de Retz, and American amusement parks of the early twentieth century. The exhibition unfolds as the apotheosis of a moment whose time has come: the 2036 grand opening of WyldLands -- a place where the global elite can slip away from the horrors of everyday life and indulge their desires for play, adventure, and freedom inside a desert landscape featuring Meyer's series of fantastical isolation bunkers. The exhibition begins with a timeline, bringing viewers up to speed on all the changes that transpire over the next 15 years, then fully immerses them within the wonders of WyldLands. The front gallery will be dark, with Meyer's magical sculptures spot lit atop pedestals, where they will offer viewers a look at the world of tomorrow. In the second gallery, Meyer presents a host of memorabilia and ephemera such as architectural drawings, rendering, paintings, and marketing materials such as the WyldLands handbook, invite opening, and other promotional pieces. Despite the tragedies that have befallen the world, Meyer's work reveals the innate human desire to find creative solutions to problems. We are invited to look into a brave new world reimagining itself as a realm for individuals, families, and groups to not only survive but thrive in an on-going state of seclusion." -- Summary from:"Doug Meyer was born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky. Meyer is a multidisciplinary artist currently working in New York City. He attended Parsons School of Design and School of Visual Arts in their fine arts departments. He has always had a fascination with history, miniatures and story telling. His first solo show "BOD" was shown in 2003 at Rocket Projects, Miami. Meyer's "BOD," replete with Donna Summer tracks, disco strobes, peephole dioramas, pseudo-historical documentation, and a red velvet curtain guarding the entrance to the installation, is a disorienting Lacanian mind-fuck where one can experience nostalgic distortions in the funhouse mirrors of the psyche to the beat of "made me feel mighty real." Inside the 100-square-foot installation space, the artist has erected a monolithic tower with multiple peepholes through which dolls can be observed having anonymous sex, dancing, gossiping, posing, and true to that age of image, taking in the surroundings with insouciant boredom. In 2014 he began working on his acclaimed Heroes Project that pays homage to fifty creative figures who were early victims of AIDS. The project was exhibited in New York, Miami and Los Angeles in 2016 and later became a book "Heroes: A Tribute" in three editions. His recent work focuses on three-dimensional environments, and his ongoing Cameo series. He just unveiled a commissioned work for the Speed Museum in Louisville where he created large scale movable furniture called "floats" for the museum's lobby. Since the lock down he has been creating a future meta-fictional world of sculptures that he refers to as isolation bunkers, these works will be shown at the gallery in March of 2021." -- Biography from:
