Two New Nieves Books
Text: Nik Mercer
Nieves Books has always been in the habit of publishing two new books at the same time. Why the Swiss company's wares come in pairs, we're not sure, but hey, they tend to be consistently great, so who can complain?
Today marks the release of Chris Johanson and Jo Jackson's Peaceable Kingdom, a collection of the Portland-based artists' politically-driven yet incredibly colorful and eye-popping paintings. Also out today is Aude Lehmann and Tan Wälchli's Whyart – A La Mode, a headier book that theorizes on the abstract landscapes of art, design, and popular culture.
