Fiona Banner aka The Vanity Press

Published to coincide with Fiona Banner aka The Vanity Press' 2019 exhibition at Frith Street Gallery, P E R I O D, riffing on the American vernacular for the full stop - is a title that links the gendering of objects and mediums, and language with the idea of cycles of time, the body, and specific historical.s. The book features in the exhibition in an audio book version, read by the artist, creating a repetitive nonsensical narrative. This book was published under The Vanity Press, the imprint she established in 1997 which deploys a playful, iconoclastic approach to publishing.
