About Fancy Action Now:
In their first two exhibitions at Magic Pony, Friends 4 Life (June 2005) and Team Macho is a Tough Man (May 2006), Team Macho established the key elements of their artistic process- camaraderie, geeky bravado and the creation of a personal culture laden with absurdity, inside jokes and well-meaning antagonism toward one another. Fancy Action Now showcases their most cohesive and dynamic work to date, as Team Macho explores some new pursuits with reckless enthusiasm: sabotage, fluorescence, racquetry, and most importantly, fanciness. With a cavalcade of new characters- Whiskey Boot, nude sportsmen, wistful lads and melancholy ladies; rainbow-coloured Fancy Action Now unleashes Team Macho’s true pansy awesomeness. 

Introduction by Paul Dallas and interview with Gary Taxali.
Softcover. 140 pages. Full colour.

About The Merlin Years:
Team Macho's richly illustrated second art book, celebrates one of Canada's most unique emerging art groups and documents their career between 2007 and 2012 from shows in Toronto, Montreal, Amsterdam, Los Angeles and New York. The Merlin Years contains essays and candid interviews on their group practice, artistic brotherhood and the Axis Mundi AGO installation. "Climbing through the basement window of their studio is like falling down the rabbit hole, and after five minutes among the machismo one realizes that it is not an act, that Team Macho’s secret lies in their everyday belief that art is about process, about form and content, about the ego-less pursuit of the interesting." - from Being Macho by A. James Bradley. 

Softcover. Full colour. 180 pages. Over 150 illustrations. Printed in Canada.
Writing by Maggie MacDonald, Ann Marie Peña and A. James Bradley.
