Book cover reveal! I’m so proud of this project, which took a very long time to build (from numerous archives) and complete. Will be insufferably elated from now ‘til January and beyond. Discount code coming soon. @alisonknowlesofficial @uchicagopress #PerformingChance #AlisonKnowles #Fluxus

Profoundly saddened to hear of AK’s passing last week. I’m so grateful for the years I spent interviewing her for my book on her art/life, forthcoming in March @uchicagopress.bsky.social
