In Chronicles Vol. 2, artist Kim Gordon brings together some of her most personal and unique drawings from a collection gathered over a period of years for her daughter, Coko, her nieces, Thurston, and friends. Gordon’s second release for Nieves Books goes beyond the photographic glimpses of the ‘musician’ Kim pictured in Chronicles Vol. 1, the artist is ‘carrying’ the readers through her private compilation of drawings, collages and paintings, also containing works from a few short projects that were never shown in public before.

Kim Gordon was born in 1953 in Los Angeles, California. After graduating from the Otis College of Art and Design in L.A. she moved to New York, and worked for several Soho art galleries in the early 1980s. At Jo Bear’s request she compiled an exhibition for his new White Columns gallery in 1982. Mike Kelley and Tony Oursler were participants. Dan Graham invited her to join a performance of an all female rock band, which marked the start of her first band, CJM.
Together with Thurston Moore, Lee Renaldo, and Richard Edson, she formed Sonic Youth in 1981, a band that she has been a member of ever since. Gordon has toured extensively with Sonic Youth, and has performed in major venues and festivals in North America, Europe, Japan, and Australia. She has directed videos for The Breeders, co-produced Hole’s album, "Pretty on the Inside", and, in 1994, started the clothing line, X-girl. The artist-musician has lived and worked in New York since 1980.

This book is the seventh issue in the Nieves Book Series with previous books by Mike Mills, Yukari Miyagi, Takashi Homma, Stefan Marx, Ari Marcopoulos and Kim Gordon herself.
