197927400New York: S. O. 36 1979. First edition. Paperback. Very Good . Square photo-illustrated stapled booklet accompanied by two 45 rpm records in original sleeves. Luxus was the name given to the "band" formed by Martin Kippenberger Christine Hahn member of the legendary post-punk bands Malaria! and Mania D. and The Static with Glenn Branca and Eric Mitchell. The latter two being important artists in the No Wave scene in New York. This was the only release on the S. O. 36 label named for the nightclub Sud Ost which Kippenberger briefly managed in Berlin and which hosted shows by Throbbing Gristle Wire and other post-punk and No Wave projects. The record sold terribly upon its release - the record with street and background noises and the provocatively amateurish drumming of Kippenberger was a conceptual provocation not only to the average listener but even to most punks - a record undigestible to all. One anecdote has it that Kippenberger distributed remaining copies free at the closing of the club - and it has become increasingly difficult to find since especially complete with the booklet. All elements in at least very good condition. This item precedes Kippenberger's first solo show which took place in 1981. S. O. 36 paperback books

2010125665San Antonio Texas: Tobin Theater Arts Fund 2010. Hardbound. Fine well bound DJ in excellent condition. Burgundy cloth boards w/ color pictorial DJ xi 366pp profuse color and BW plates and illustrations. With bright beautiful pictures and excellent descriptions this is a fantastic book to have as reference to learn or just to keep on the coffee table and pick up at will. Theatrical scene design is one of the most beautiful varied and lively art forms. Yet there are relatively few books on the subject and almost none for a general audience that combine expansive scholarship with lavish design. Making the Scene offers an unprecedented survey of the evolving context theory and practice of scene design from ancient Greek times to the present coauthored by the world's best-known authority on the subject and enhanced by three hundred full-color illustrations. Individual chapters of the book focus on Greece Rome Medieval Europe including liturgical drama street pageants festival outdoor drama Spanish religious drama and royal entries the Italian Renaissance eighteenth-century Europe Classicism to Romanticism Realism and Naturalism Modernism and contemporary scene design. Making the Scene's authors review everything from the effects of social status on theatre design to the sea changes between Classicism Romanticism and Naturalism and the influence of perspective-based thought. Particularly intriguing is their rediscovery of lost tricks and techniques from the classical deus ex machina and special effects in coliseums to medieval roving stage wagons and the floating ships of the Renaissance to the computerized practices of today's theatres. Such ingenious techniques interwoven with the sweeping beauty of scene design through the ages combine with the keen scholarship of Oscar Brockett and Margaret Mitchell to create a book as involving as the art it showcases.
