BIZARRE UPROAR - lihan voitto hengestä BOOK

[FreakAnimalFinland]

Normally I don't much advertize IOPS releases, but this I will mention here:

*BIZARRE UPROAR "lihan voitto hengestä - visual document 2005-2010" book
What is better way to start year 2010 with Institute of Paraphilia Studies than co-operation with Filth & Violence, and put in reality perfect binded b/w artbook of that sums up certain period of Bizarre Uproar. Collecting Lihaevankeliumi and other photography, as well as Lihan Voitto Hengestä collage arts and more. Including the same shots, alternative versions and never before seen works. This book weights nearly half kilo, but belongs to the 2 euro shipping offer nevertheless. 1st and possibly only edition, limited and hand numbered 88 copies, signed by mr & mrs. Bizarre and hand stamped inside cover. Very limited stock at Freak Animal, so if you want to withness the power of BU and level of power electronics art of today, don´t hesitate! XXX rated.

Pasi most likely will post some pictures of the item later today... we'll see.

Just got it.
It does what it says.
A great way to have all artworks I have seen until now in one place.

I expect more in future!

The very straight, clean layout compliments the subject matter of the photos. I think it makes a good coffee table book. Must have the neighbours over one evening.

IOPS has talk to do more books.
There was some discussion with one swedish artist, possibly book of my own sometime when I feel like it, who knows in BU returns with new never-before-seen material, next book in color.

Due personal interest and possibilities, I may start putting out more books in future.
Not to hijack the topic for non-BU related, but I did also 3 books of cult artists Nalle Virolainen back in 2007




+ two postcard books (full color postcards binded together)

Books are 70 pages of images, 30 pages of text in Finnish. They are b/w drawings, totally amazing, totally original. If this guy was international artists, he would be probably hailed together with Mike Diana and many of other naive, but perverse graphic artists. His paintings are even better. All books still available, 10 euro each. Not bad for 100 pages release.

I did also some other stuff, but those only interests of Finns, due language.

I'd love to see a repress of the art book you put out Mikko. I think the distribution was extremely limited, only for the Japan tour a few years ago?
Still waiting for my copy of the BU book. Should be here anyday.

Received mine a couple of days ago. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality. Being a fan of BU art I new what to expect visually, but the execution caught me off guard. I expected more of a glorified Xerox zine, but the binding, production, etc turned out fantastic. It's great to have some of the tape covers in an "easy to read" form. Excellent work to all those involved.

Got it yesterday. Its great, worth the money for sure

I finally got my copy last weekend. Great book and nicely done. Good binding too. The collages in their full form and the progression of certain themes in the art work. If you've picked up much of BU's output for the past couple years a lot of the material is familiar, but it's presented in full form here. Worth the money if there are any copies left for sale.
Unfortunately my copy was slightly damaged in shipping which is pretty fucking annoying but that's the USPS for you.

Next time book is done, I make sure it is kind of optimal size for doing package. I mean that it goes under certain weight limits and size limits to make possible to include more stuffing/bubble/cardboard whatever.

I hope damage not severe. It seems matter of luck whether stuff arrives in good shape or not. Postal workers find they way to do the damage, no matter how well packaging would be done. And then when label sends you ltd 50 copies LP wrapped in plain envelope, not even cardboard, it arrives in perfect shape!

[ConcreteMascara]

Only slight damage to the spine and a little to the back cover, nothing so terrible. I got mine from Pasi and it was really well protected I just think postal guys like to bend packages as much as possible before delivery.

[SafeWord]

Having worked in a mail centre before, packages are certainly manhandled and thrown around, not because the workers are assholes, well okay some of them are, but because the company trains workers to throw parcels into cages because its takes too long to walk and place the parcel in the cage, people also just get lazy and have no respect for the property of others.
