Monograph of Joe Robert's latest work, including paintings, drawings, and essays.

Brian Blomerth first fused his singularly irreverent underground comix style with heavily-researched history in 2019¿s Brian Blomerth¿s Bicycle Day, a Technicolor retelling of the discovery of LSD. Now, the illustrator and graphic novelist continues his wild and woolly excursions into the history of mind expansion with Mycelium Wassonii, an account of the lives and trips of R. Gordon and Valentina Wasson, the pioneering scientist couple responsible for popularizing the use of psychedelic mushrooms. A globetrotting vision of hallucinatory science and religious mysticism with appearances by Life Magazine, the CIA, and the Buddha, Mycelium Wassonii is a visual history and a love story as only Blomerth¿s Isograph pen can render it.

An illustrated, deep dive into Albert Hofmann's infamous "Bicycle Day" from Brian Blomerth.

The first book by photographer Jonathan Higbee.

A founding writer for the British music paper Sounds, John Ingham was one of the first photographers to chronicle the emerging punk movement in London.

Reissued for the first time in decades, an underground classic of street photography documenting San Francisco’s late 1970s Halloween celebrations: the macabre and irreverent “Mardi Gras of the West”Originally published in limited quantities in 1981, Halloween: A Fantasy in Three Acts collects photographs taken by Ken Werner at San Francisco’s adult Halloween celebrations from 1976 to 1980, assembling a visual narrative of American consciousness and popular culture as seen through lenses of queerness, black humor, and the macabre. Once touted as the “Mardi Gras of the West,” the raunchy, mostly open-air nighttime costume parties documented by Werner were hugely popular events organized primarily by LGBT and sex worker advocates, attracting tens of thousands of curious attendees as well as conservative ire from around the nation. Reissued for the first time in decades, this underground classic explores a bacchanalia worthy of the pagan and occult roots of the Halloween ritual—a magical dream/nightmare-land of terror and joy, with uninhibited celebrants reveling in stunning self-made guises that combine cartoon logic, sexual extravagance, and a highly irreverent take on American mythologies.

A dreamlike exploration of intimacies and memory rendered in powerful photographs and lyrical texts, featuring an interview by Arooj Aftab and an afterword by Tessa Thompson.“A sublime, aching collection of images.” — Chan Marshall (Cat Power)For decades, photographer Kate Sterlin has made an artistic practice of examining the boundaries between individual, family, and community. In her first book, Still Life: Photographs & Love Stories, she delivers a meditation on love and its ability to weather the brutal specificities of life, death, family and race in America. Pairing intimate photographs with poetic, lyrical writings, Still Life is a hypnagogic narrative that unfolds in a series of overlapping episodes and identities, a testament to one artist's commitment to creation and a dreamlike blend of the personal and the universal.

The best of the celebrated blog Epicly Later’d, Patrick O’Dell’s intimate photo-diary dedicated to documenting the adventure and mayhem of the 2000s NYC skate/music/downtown scene.In 2004, well before the advent of social media as a global phenomenon, photographer Patrick O’Dell launched the celebrated blog Epicly Later’d. Dedicated to documenting the adventure and mayhem of the NYC skate/music/downtown scene, the site distinguished itself with its offhand wit, its irreverent cast of characters, and an intimate photo-diary format years ahead of its time. Nearly two decades later, the impact of O’Dell’s work can be appreciated in full: its influence is now apparent across photo, art, and skate culture, and the original photographs still astonish. Compiled by O’Dell and editor Jesse Pearson, Epicly Later’d collects the best of the blog into a body of work that’s evocative, funny, and wildly compelling."Wayward youth and joy and oblivion—here are all the moments I remember and many that I don’t! Patrick’s exacting eye for the fractured beauty in our shared chaos captured it all." - Chloë Sevigny

The definitive book on legendary Swedist psych band, Träd, Gräs och Stenar. The story of Träd, Gräs och Stenar is also a defining story of alternative culture. Across multiple incarnations, the musicians of this iconic group (whose name translates to "Trees, Grass and Stones") have drawn on their roots in jazz and the avant-garde, the iconoclastic art and theater of the 1960s, and the back-to-the-land "green wave" movement to blaze a pioneering trail across fifty years of endlessly improvisational, resolutely DIY rock and roll jams. In this book, the collective's members tell their story for the first time, accompanied by a vast archive of photographs, newspaper clippings, posters, flyers, album covers, and paintings. With its in-depth oral history and astonishingly rich visuals, this book provides an insight into over five decades of internationally-renowned music innovation and countercultural history.

Debut book of poetry from musician Elias B. Rønnenfelt Presented in both the original Danish text and Rønnenfelt¿s own English translation, Sunken Heights balances the poet¿s reflections on the aggressive and primal present with strikingly romantic and surprisingly vulnerable musings on variations of love, delusion, and maturation in a smoldering world.

Reissue of a 1973 classic Would you like to meet a witch? What would happen if she popped you into a sack and stole you away? In illustrating Ian Serraillier¿s striking poem, Ed Emberley shows us what took place when such a thing happened to two clever and resourceful children. Anthology is thrilled to present 1973¿s Suppose You Met a Witch, a beautiful and wondrous book that lets us all experience what it must be like to be under a witch¿s spell.

The definitive book on artist Ken Grimes Influenced by the proliferation of sci-fi media in his youth, Grimes has also continued to be moved by popular culture, a motif which intermingles with his interest in outer space in ways both earnest and irreverent. Showcasing art from Grimes¿s long career, this book catalogs the endless variations on a theme produced by an absolutely unique painter during a lifetime devoted to the mysteries of extraterrestrial life.

A reissue of Joe Robert's 2015 release 'LSD Worldpeace.'

Almost every boy has at some time made a kite. But few boys have ever made a kite with so much a mind of its own as Obstreperous. Though it was made in the normal way, with sticks and string and paper and rags, it did not fly in anything like a normal way. At first it didn¿t fly at all because there was no wind. And then when the winds came, it dipped and bounced and created all sorts of problems for its maker. In the end, too, it had its way and left some people happy and some a little sad. An international treasure from the Australian countryside, 1969¿s Obstreperous is one of author Ted Greenwood¿s best-loved children¿s books. Anthology is pleased to bring it back into print for the first time in generations.

If any one musical act of the rock and roll era can be said to have transcended the simple categorization of ¿band,¿ the Grateful Dead is it: by the time they stopped performing in 1995, the Dead had become an international institution with a vast backing organization, a massive and devoted fanbase, and archival recordings both official and bootlegged. The cultural significance of these bootlegs - live concert cassettes which solidified the Dead¿s legendary status even as they occupied a legal gray area for decades - is utterly unique in the annals of music, and the story of their creation, trading, and endless proliferation is a people¿s history unto itself. Featuring dozens of interviews with tape enthusiasts and members of the Grateful Dead organization as well as the show stopping visuals from hundreds of archival cassette covers, After All Is Said and Done is artist Mark A. Rodriguez¿s exploration of that history, a saga of homegrown psychedelia, anarchic graphic styles, and black market fandom as written in magnetic tape.

"...Pagnanös photographs remind us of the importance of documenting moments as they occur so that we can savour the pleasures of the past and look at the present with fresh eyes." - Huck Brooklyn¿s Empire Rollerdrome opened its doors in 1941 and soon became the borough¿s premier destination for recreational and competitive roller skating. But it wasn¿t until the late 1970s that the celebrated rink reached iconic status by replacing its organist with a live DJ, installing a state of the art sound and light system, and renaming itself after the nationwide dance craze it had helped to originate: the Empire Roller Disco was born. In 1980, Forbesmagazine sent the acclaimed street photographer Patrick D. Pagnano to document the Empire and its legendary cast of partygoers. The resulting photographs, gathered in TK for the first time, capture the vibrant spirits, extraordinary styles, and sheer joys of Brooklyn roller disco at its dizzying peak.

More than any party, parade, team, or disaster, New Orleans is the people. The ones who persevere, survive, strengthen, and transform the city in all its unceasing vibrancy. For nearly a decade, photographer Akasha Rabut has documented this thriving culture. In Death Magick Abundance, her first book, she reveals the city's spirit through the pink smoke of the Caramel Curves, the first all-female black motorcycle club; alongside the Southern Riderz, urban cowboys on horseback in the streets; and many others who represent the next generation of New Orleans. Seeking to interpret and preserve a sacred cultural heritage while redefining itself against a constantly shifting landscape, Death Magick Abundance is a conduit for the love and unending beauty of New Orleans and its people to flow to the rest of the world.
