[Small Press] La Mamelle/ Art Contemporary/ Artcom Nos. 1-25 ( Vol.1 No.1 through Vol.7 No.1), lacking only No.10 (Vol.3 No.2). San Francisco, 1975-1984. Edited by Carl E. Loeffler. Near complete set of all issues published as a print publication, after Vol.7 No.1 the magazine continued as an electronic journal. Includes the rare No.12: Newsstand Edition Art Contemporary August 1978, published as a special issue of Only Paper Today. No.18 with stained cover, other copies in good condition. The magazine was published by the non-profit space and artists' bookstore La Mamelle in San Francisco, run by Loeffler since 1975. Both the space and the journal focused on recent alternative art forms such as video, performance, artists' publications, mail art and media art. The size and title of the magazine changed over time. The first two issues were 21 x 28 cm, followed by tabloid newsprint format (45 x 30 cm) for No.3 and No.4, and staple-bound copies measuring 21.5 x 28 cm. The title changed from 'La Mamelle' to 'Art Contemporary' to 'Art Com'. Featured are articles, interviews, reviews, artists' contributions, documentation, artists' resources and listings for other non-profit art spaces. Important and inspiring document.
