UMBRELLA
October 1993


PO Box 40100
Pasadena CA, 91114


39 pp., $18/yr.

For years Judith Hoffberg's UMBRELLA has been a leading guide to mail art and books by artists. It also contains perceptive reviews of pertinent books whether mainstream or micro-press, and a smattering of news-items--such a story here on Conde Nast's copyright-infringement suit against artist Christof Kohlhofer for unfairly "competing" with VOGUE (Kohlhofer constructs variations of said slickzine about as likely to compete with it as a sculpture of a bra labeled "Maidenform" would be to cut into the sales of real Maidenform bras).--Bob Grumman
