The Future Lasts Forever utilizes the notion of autobiography as a way to explore the work of contemporary artists who are using archival material, exploring persistent subject matter, and examining their own personal histories. In addition, the practical ways and means that surround art practice and preserve works for the future beyond the ephemeral exhibition model are surveyed. To emphasize an autobiographical focus in egalitarian terms, accompanying texts featuring an articulation by each artist, publisher, or collector regarding his or her particular focus follow the portfolio. The cumulative effect of these projects serves to exemplify the evolution, over time, of a multifaceted and multicultural major American metropolitan region.

<p>Short stories told in the usual unforgettably shocking manner previously seen in little men also published by Hard Press. These tales from the seamier side of life draw the reader into a nihilistic world that smacks of Bukowski's, but with a brash eroticism and a cheerful cynicism that is unmistakably Kevin Killian's.</p>

<p>Publication documenting two recent bodies of work by New York-based artist Gareth Long. Untitled (Stories) is a set of lenticular prints accompanied by the book series that pivots around a disjunction between the oeuvre of J.D. Salinger and the design of his books: the original Little, Brown &amp; Co. book cover designs are a starting point for nine large-scale prints. An unfinished Gustave Flaubert novel is the central point around which the other works revolve. Bouvard and Pecuchet's Invented Desk for Copying is a suite of two-sided desk-sculptures that form the core of a related suite of projects. At the heart of both works lies a fascination with books as uniquely flexible vehicles of meaning, as complex compendia to be read, re-read and mis-read.</p>
