A SPECIAL NOTE FROM BRIAN SHEVLN
From the bottom of my heart, I humbly thank you for your gracious patience with this massively delayed and overdue book. I could write an entire book filled with the stories that contributed to this book being so incredibly far behind schedule. Still, I am happy with how this unofficial book, “Five Years Inside A New York City Lower East Side Art Collective, 2010 to 2015” turned out.
The book still isn’t perfect, and there are many artists, artworks, moments, and more that just didn’t make it into the final version, often because the images were lost or worse. Due to numerous restraints that guided this final book, there just were some things that didn’t make it. Perhaps one day we’ll get the chance to make a book covering all 10 years the collective existed.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN THAT THIS BOOK IS UNOFFICIAL?
Well, basically I was unable to get legal permission to use copyrighted material for this book from the new company that owns the intellectual property that is the Con Artist Collective. I do not know if the Con Artist Collective ever plans to print an official book, but please consider accepting this book as a personal thank you from me for your support.
Thank you again to our two sponsors that financially supported the actual making of this book, from the printing to the costs of getting it into each of your hands.
I hope you enjoy this book as much as we enjoyed living it.
