The artist's book as activist tactic: a toolkit
Freedom of the Presses is at once a textbook and a toolbox for using artists' books and creative publications to further community engagement and social justice projects.
Far from being a staid survey of an art historical practice, Freedom of the Presses intervenes in an ongoing discussion about art and activism in the present day by considering the place of the art book in the 21st century. The publisher, Booklyn, has been involved in this conversation since 1999, when a group of six artists decided to band together to promote contemporary artists' books and publications. Booklyn's focus has always been voracious, encompassing street art, punk and activist culture alongside more conventional artists' books. This restless energy is present in Freedom of the Presses, which brings together a provocative mix of humorous, intimate and scholarly writing in order to expand how we think about the concept, content, design, production and distribution of artists' and activists' publications today. Aimed at a global community of librarians, publishers and readers, it offers models of how to reimagine contemporary artists' bookmaking as a socially engaged, political practice. With essays by Kurt Allerslev, Tia Blassingame, Sarah Kirk Hanley, FLY-O, Karen Eliot, Richard J. Lee, Florencia San Mart n, Ganzeer, Suzy Taraba, Stephen Dupont, Bridget Elmer, Janelle Rebel, Marshall Weber, Anton Wurth, Xu Bing, Deborah Ultan and Aaron Sinift, Freedom of the Presses enacts the dialogue it calls for, inviting artists and activists to weigh in on the place of artists' books in the most pressing social, political and cultural issues of our time.Binding Type: Paperback

Holds up surprisingly well
Style: Monster
When your dachshund loves these, you buy extra just in case. He’s a tough chewer so I was a bit surprised it lasted very long. It’s going on two months, the legs are almost gone but the squeaker works and the fluff is still inside. He has to have his toy to go to bed so I’ve ordered backups

Nice toy too small for XL dogs!
Style: Turtle
This is cute and a nice toy but way too small for XL dogs. Our dog doesn't rip things so that isn't an issue. Just not enough space to put treats into it. Dog finds the few treats too quickly. Washable. Soft. Lightweight. Very pricey for what you get.

A Turtle with Big Dreams and Weak Seams
Style: Turtle
This toy showed up ready to inspire. A squeaky, crinkly, treat-stuffed turtle with a dream: to enrich my dog’s life and stimulate his gentle mind.
What actually happened? My puppy took one look, screamed “GAME ON” in dog language, and unleashed pure chaos. Treats fell out instantly, like the turtle panicked and threw them in surrender, saying, “We give up,” almost immediately.
The material for the treat pockets feels like craft day at a preschool; soft, colorful, and never meant for combat. This turtle was built for spa days, not war.
Points for concept, charm, and squeaky optimism—but this turtle wasn’t built for the front lines of puppy enthusiasm.
