The Thousands

That question where you pick famous people to have over for dinner is as exciting in fantasy (Terry Richardson! Larry Clark! David Shrigley!) as it is depressing in reality (your loser friends, who turn up two hours late, without bringing even a cheap fifth of whiskey*). If you can’t get Neckface, Spike Jonze, Cheryl Dunn and the aforementioned over for pizza and pot brownies, you can at least get them in art form via Iconoclast.

Born in Cincinnati Ohio (like modernist Charley Harper, whom they’ve worked with), Iconoclast Editions is the baby of Christian Strike, former editor of Strength Magazine, and co-curator of the Beautiful Losers touring exhibition. They make everything from coffee table books and small artist publications to limited edition prints and random awesome stuff. Their affiliated Country Club Gallery works with similarly-minded artists, and Iconoclast’s mailing list updates about current CC and Iconoclast projects are always impressive.

(*BTW, we actually love your loser friends; Terry, Larry, and all the rest would too)
