IMPULSE[b] publishes artists’ books and multiples by established and emerging creators. IMPULSE[b] sees itself as the conceptual continuation of the innovation established by IMPULSE magazine, the premier Canadian art and culture magazine of the 1970s and 80s. The visual arts were presented as being interconnected with architecture, literature, design, music, politics and society.
IMPULSE was the subject of two retrospective exhibitions at MOCCA in Toronto and White Box in New York City and the book by University of Toronto Press, Impulse Archaeology.
