The Neo-Futurists: BODY — Our entirely unique printed artifact.

We don’t know about you, but the last thing we want to do is stand in line at a creepy shopping mall, holding our breaths that whatever family member or loved one will just ADORE the last-minute gift we picked in a stress-fueled walking coma. Get them something they’ll actually like, from a local Chicago storefront or the comfort of your own home.

The Neo-Futurists: Body – Comprised of essays, interviews, play-text, photographs, illustrations, lists, and collage, the book is a body of work birthed in collaboration with current Neo-Futurists, Neo Alums, and special guests (including interviews with cartoonist and writer Ivan Brunetti and Chicago dancemaker Julia Rhoads of Lucky Plush Productions). The overarching concept of the book is borrowed from the Surrealists’ exquisite corpse game–a chance-method of drawing which used many artists to create a often chaotic, sometimes cohesive, always surprising finished product.

Books are available for purchase following Too Much Light on Friday, Saturday and Sunday at our Merch Table, or can be purchased online and shipped anywhere in the US (see SQUARE link below)!

New exciting bookstore locations! Our friends at Chicago Comics, Quimby’s, Alleycat Comics, and Women & Children First are all selling Body. And, Lula Cafe has it on their online store, among some other great selections. Support them as well as us. It’s just so good for you.
