A Room Full of Jandek
The good folk at the Douglas Hyde Gallery in Dublin have just opened an exhibition of Jandek record sleeves (this blog takes it's name from the first Jandek album). Jandek has been self releasing his recordings on the Corwood Industries label for 20 years now. Photographing himself and his domestic/environmental details for the sleeves which have become a beautiful archive unto themselves. A publication with texts by Lars Iyer and John Hutchinson is available and for the superstitious Jandek will perform in the gallery on Friday the 13th!
