MYTHTYM

Writer, artist, musician and prolific zine-maker Trinie Dalton has said of her work, "The idea of introducing and contextualizing artists by hanging their art on the same wall is a fundamental one in the art world. To me, my zines are literary/art/music history anthologies, following the group-show or salon style. They're like parties on paper, and I want to be an exquisite host." Dalton's "parties on paper" bring together artists, musicians, critics, novelists, cartoonists and other less-classifiable cultural producers. Mythtym compiles the greatest hits from previous zines, as well as a new, 100-page piece on the subject of mirrors: As symbols in horror stories, psychological metaphors, as material for psychedelic art and the disco ball. Contributors include: Folkert de Jong, Takeshi Murata, Jim Drain, Jay Babock, Andrew Leland, Aura Rosenberg, Sue de Beer, Leif Goldberg, Matt Greene, Nick Lowe, Brian Sholis, Benjamin Weissman, Francine Spiegel, Derek McCormack, Jesse Bransford, Shamim Momin, Amy Gerstler, David Altmejd, Sammy Harkham, Rachel Kushner, Dennis Cooper, Marnie Weber, Banks Violette, Dearraindrop and Paper Rad.

LA Weekly calls MYTHTYM one of the art books of the year.

Trinie Dalton has long made popular zines on variety of subjects. She brings together artists, musicians, critics, novelists and cartoonists in one gorgeous stew. MYTHTYM compiles the best work from her previous zines on Werewolves, mythical beings, and the natural world. But best of

all, this volume includes an entirely new, 100-page body of work on the theme of mirrors. This new section will investigate the mirror as a symbolic object in horror stories. The metaphorical mirror within the scope of mental illnesses such as schizophrenia. The metaphysical implications of mirroring, especially in the ancient world of alchemy. Reflective surfaces. Disco. The mirror's role in psychedelic, symmetrical art. The first mirrors to emerge in primitive cultures, and the roles they played in early mythologies. Mirrors as scrying tools. It

can branch out from there, into light, rainbows, death, vampirism, magic. Not restricted legally to mirrors by any means. In fact if it were all about mirrors that would be too many mirrors.

Contributors include: Aurel Schmidt, Folkert De Jong, Takeshi Murata, Jim Drain, Andrew Leland, Aura Rosenberg, Sue De Beer, Leif Goldberg, Matt Greene, Francine Spiegel, Derek McCormack, Jesse Bransford, Shamim Momin, Amy Gerstler, assume vivid astro focus, David Altmejd, Sammy Harkham, Rachel Kushner, Marnie Weber, Bjorn Copeland, Paper Rad.

About her zines, Trinie Dalton has said: "I don't want my books to be cliquish, but at the same time I don't see them as communal free-for-alls. Of course, many people I invite to participate are my friends, and are friends with each other, but I deliberately include not

only established artists and writers but also young people who are relatively unknown in their field. The idea of introducing and contextualizing artists by hanging their art on the same wall is a fundamental one in the art world. To me, my zines are literary/art/music

history anthologies, following the group-show or salon style. They're like parties on paper, and I want to be an exquisite host." --Los Angeles Weekly
