Printed Matter Signs a Lease for Ground Floor Space on West 22nd Street
Printed Matter, Inc. is very pleased to announce that on November 3, 2000 it
signed a ten-year sub-lease agreement with Friedrich Petzel to take 1,200
square feet of ground floor space at 535 West 22nd Street (between 10th and
11th Avenues).
Printed Matter is thrilled to be joining Friedrich Petzel, Marianne Boesky,
CRG, Julie Saul, Frederieke Taylor, Leslie Tonkonow, and Yancy Richardson in
this newly renovated Chelsea building.
Printed Matter is overjoyed to find a new home after an exhaustive search
for real estate. Since 1989 Printed Matter has rented its 77 Wooster Street
location from the Dia Center for the Arts. The staff and board of Printed
Matter remain grateful to Dia for the opportunity to best promote artists'
publications from its SoHo site.
Printed Matter anticipates closing its Wooster Street location in January
2001 and reopening on 22nd Street shortly thereafter.
Printed Matter is also happy to announce an exhibition of the artists'
books, posters, and ephemera by Sol LeWitt to open on November 15 and run
though December 22. This exhibition will coincide with three other LeWitt
exhibitions in New York: his retrospective at the Whitney Museum of American
Art; and gallery shows at PaceWildenstein and Paula Cooper Gallery.
Printed Matter was founded in 1976 by Sol LeWitt along with Carl Andre, Edit
DeAk, Lucy Lippard, Walter Robinson, Pat Steir, Mimi Wheeler, Robin White
and Irena von Zahn to be a retailer and wholesaler of artists' books. Over
its 24 years history Printed Matter has expanded its interest from artists'
books to a more broad range of artists' publications including audio works,
video works, multiples, and digital works.
Printed Matter's current board members are: Philip Aarons [Board President],
Robert Rainwater [Board Vice President], Bethany Johns [Board Secretary],
Paul Daitz [Board Treasurer], AA Bronson, Susan Harris, Jon Hendricks, David
Leiber, Mary Lum, Carolina Nitsch, Michael Steinberg, and Brian Wallis.
