Ecstatic Peace Library is a book publishing imprint founded by Thurston Moore and Eva Prinz to release an exhibition catalogue[1] by photographer Justine Kurland.[2] The name is derived from Ecstatic Peace!,[3] (also a music label run by Thurston Moore & Andrew Kesin), and an expression found in a passage from Tom Wolfe’s book The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test.[4] The company publishes a range of photography and art-related books about the early Norwegian black metal scene,[5] experimental jazz from the 1970s.[6]

Founders

Thurston Moore is a musician best known as one of the founding members of the band Sonic Youth and now performs with various ensembles including his own band, The Thurston Moore Group. Eva Prinz started her publishing career in New York City at Taschen America. She held positions as Editor of Fine Arts at Rizzoli International Publications and later Senior Editor at Abrams Books. Prinz guest edited artist Peter Halley’s Index Magazine (April/May 2005) and participated in curating exhibitions in New York City, including ‘Radical Living Papers’ [7] which was a survey of the underground press from 1960-75 at Gavin Brown’s Passerby gallery space. Eva Prinz and Thurston Moore began working together on books at Rizzoli International Publications — their first book was on the subject of mixtapes entitled Mixtape: The Art of Cassette Culture[8] and was published on the pop culture imprint Universe Books, a division of Rizzoli.[9] Prinz and Moore collaborated on several books that focused on music for Rizzoli and Abrams and worked together for several years before founding their own imprint Ecstatic Peace Library in 2009.

History

Ecstatic Peace Library published their first publication, Justine Kurland's This Train is Bound for Glory, in 2009.[1] This was an exhibition catalog for Kurland's show at Mitchell-Innes & Nash in New York.[2]

On 5 September 2018, Ecstatic Peace Library announced the creation of their record label Daydream Library Series, with its premiere album Sistahs by the London band Big Joanie. The release was accompanied by a limited edition fanzine, edited by Moore, Prinz and the musicians.[10]
