Ann Hirsch Twelve

annipo0 and 1 other

Twelve tells the story of 12-year-old Anni, who discovers an AOL chatroom in 1998 and enters into a wild virtual social world. She makes friends, enemies and eventually falls for a 27-year-old man. After being released as an interactive e-book on iTunes in 2013 and subsequently censored, Twelve is now back as a physical book designed by Molly Soda.

Toby Kaufmann-Buhler

Sawing Sound (video study grid)

Toby Kaufmann-Buhler

Free

Our take Multidisciplinary artist Toby Kaufmann-Buhler manipulates the saw and synthesizer to share a hypnotic and living organism of sound and video works. Meant to be experienced interactively and through self-determined patterns, new editions to play in will be made available as new videos are added.

train_songz

Train Songz 2024 Zine Case

train_songz

Sold out

Our take Train Songz returns to Metalabel with more from the Billy Strings obsessed collection, including a cute new zine case to protect these hand stamped zines from harm. We can’t get enough of this ultimate fan energy.

angelayxy

$58+

Our take A beautiful walk through the eyes of the wanderer that inspires us with a longing to leave our daily mundanity behind.

Brian Eno and Bette A.

"What Art Does" Limited Edition PDF of the book

BRIAN ENO and 2 others

Our take Brian Eno and Bette A remind us that playing with form is a part of the art itself with this limited edition $1 release of their new book "What Art Does." A new theory of art should definitely one that as many people as possible can access. Available until December 10.

Useful Art Club

Film Club 001

Klein Moosatov

$152+

Our take Why wear brand-name when you could be adorned by for favorite film instead? Collaborative storytellers Agnes and Sam of Klein Moosatov take wearing your heart on your sleeve to new heights with this collection of these custom modified vintage sourced tees.

Yoona

A Surreal Kind of Normal

Yoona

$5+

Our take What does it look like to perform consumption as Spectacle, capitalism as ethos, and desire itself as commodity? Yoona shows us our own absurdity in this new browser-based and USB release. Obsessed.

Spencer Chang

Field Companions

Spencer Chang

$118+

Our take The latest release from our Fall/Winter season, artist and technologist Spencer Chang lovingly brings the technological and the physical together, embedding found objects with their story. Available exclusively on Metalabel <3

New Art Dealers Alliance

Andrea Bergart “Apple Jacks” Limited-edition Basketball

Joshua Citarella and 1 other

$150+

Our take Artist Andrea Bergart pulls on our hoop kid heartstrings with this fun limited edition with New Art Dealers Alliance—the non-profit collective shaping a new interlocked community of galleries, non-profits, and commercial spaces alike.

Cryptid Soup

The Book of Xenomes

Qid Love

Our take Artist Quid Love generously offers a bridge between highly theoretical notions of sound and the everyday realities of making music. With it we find ourselves seeing sonic structure in a whole new light.

Future Commerce Press

LORE by Future Commerce

Future Commerce and 1 other

$75

Our take As collectors and artists, we are naturally big fans of lore as the beautiful world and energy around the work itself. But Future Commerce goes one step further and prompts us to ask what else does lore and myth shape that we can’t control? Where does it escape us? Lore begets lore begets ____?
