Allen Ruppersberg, ‘Remainders: Novel, Sculpture, Film’ (1991)
128 bound books with jackets, five cardboard packing cartons, and one signed paper bookmark on wood table.
An installation that mimics a publisher’s remainders display in a bookstore. The artist manipulated the presentation in provocative ways: inserting fictional titles and authors onto book covers; printing the back covers and inside jacket flaps of each book with the entire screenplay of a 1960s educational film that warns of the dangers of hallucinogenic drugs; and inserting into each book a series of full-page, black-and-white stills from the artist’s film archive.

Mark Manders‘ ‘Newspaper’ series is an ongoing series of printed newspaper editions often free for the public to take home and available only during his exhibitions.
Using a nonsensical combination of English words, their text creates a pretense of legibility that dissolves upon closer inspection.
