Monday Edition: Stuart Klipper

Greetings, collectors! Welcome to our special Monday edition, released in honor of tonight's Collectors Confab hosted by the fine folks of Chronicle Books. 99.9% of Team 20x200 is here in SF for the Confab and a whole bunch of artists will be joining us tonight too. More details on that after a brief introduction of today's editions.

Icebreaker, Emperor penguin, Southern O., Antarctica and Swell, Southern Ocean - near 50° S, Antarctica are by Antarctic explorer Stuart Klipper. Stuart's made six expeditions to Antarctica, creating a stunning body of panoramic images* of its surfaces which he describes as "more in common with the alien surfaces of other planets and moons" than it does with other continents on our planet.

I was introduced to Stuart's work by his Minneapolis friend and neighbor, Beth Dow, who recommended that we collaborate on editions with him. It turns out that our friends at Chronicle Books recently published a gorgeous book of his photos, The Antarctic: From the Circle to The Pole, making today a fitting day for his 20x200 debut. You can pick up a copy tonight at the Confab, or buy one online at www.chroniclebooks.com. Wherever you do it, don't forget to invoke your special 20x200 Collectors discount! Enter code 20x200 at checkout on their site for 30% off and free shipping. (If you come to the party tonight, you'll get the discount on any purchases you make there too.)

Speaking of that party — I have to go get ready for that! Please join me, the 20x200 crew, including edition-makers Jane Mount and Youngna Park. Tons of artists are coming too: Mark Richards will be there, so you can snap up a copy of his book and have him sign it then and there. Other artists who have rsvp'd include: Clifton Burt, Noah Kalina, Jessica Snow and Mark Ulriksen. Local friends and heroes from Electric Works, SFMOMA, Rare Device, 7x7 and Wired are slated to attend too. And speaking of 7x7, check out the lovely interview they did with me last week: 20x200's Jen Bekman on Collecting Without Breaking the Bank.

*Because panoramic images are long and narrow, these prints have very generous horizontal borders. Each edition's page includes a thumbnail that shows the image's size on the page. You can also click on the "View Large" link on each editions' page to see a bigger version. Please be sure to have a look at those before making your purchases!
