"ZIP: 01-01-14...12-31-14 is an annual. It records one year of an ongoing work that Yuji Agematsu began in the mid 1990s. Each day, Agematsu finds objects while walking the city and drops them into the cellophane wrapper from a cigarette pack. The accompanying booklet is a facsimile of the notes Agematsu keeps to map when and where these objects were encountered. It is produced in conjunction with exhibitions at Yale Union (Portland, OR), Artspeak (Vancouver, BC), and Real Fine Arts (Brooklyn, NY)"--Colophon
