  • A 1989 ANTI-TOURIST GUIDE by Truus de Groot - Limited edition Box.
    One day in 1989, musician and artist Truus de Groot sat down and began writing a “no frills” tourist guide for New York City, including the panhandlers, the cat-callers, and the 2000+ murders a year. Around the same time, Truus established the Misanthropic Society to blow of steam. Shortly afterwards, she left the city for good.

    This silk screened box set contains a reproduction of Truus' previously unpublished manuscript So, You Wanna Go to New York? - as well as a cassette with NYC "hate songs" by Truus from around the same time. This never-before released EP reflects the reality of living around heavy crime and chaos at a very particular time in New York City. Or as Truus writes in her Guide: "I suggest you take the NY subway and let it surprise you." A SAGO Press Publication.

Plus Instruments San Diego, California

Plus Instruments' existence spans over the last 4 decades. Established in 1978 by Truus de Groot in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, amidst the explosion of Punk Rock. Even though Truus was very active in that genre and “New Wave” as well, the more experimental side gradually took over and the concept of Plus Instruments was born.
