For 6 years, artist Fritz Haeg opened his Los Angeles home to events, happenings, gatherings, meetings, pageantry, performances, shows, stunts and spectacles framed and affected by his unique house which includes a subterranean cave, a geodesic dome, and a series of garden spaces. This artists' book documents the Sundown Salon events and also shares participants reflections on the idea of salons and the nature of viewing and making art communally and for a domestic space. "The Sundown Salon Unfolding Archive" is both a book and an exhibition: It is printed as one long accordian-fold paper. The text can be flipped through and read like a book, and the pictures can be unfurled to a 140 foot long art piece. The book has been conceived by Fritz in collaboration with Evil Twin Publications' Stacy Wakefield. The covers vary, with 5 different combinations being created from drawings made by salon participants.
