Dilettante only published three titles, but "their impact was considerable." Dilettante's first book, The End Is Near! Visions of Apocalypse, Millennium and Utopia, won the Benjamin Franklin Award for Best First Book. Their subsequent titles included: Extreme Canvas: Hand-Painted Movie Posters from Ghana. By Ernie Wolfe, III and Starstruck: Photographs from a Fan by Gary Lee Boas, selected by Artforum Magazine as "Best of 2000". Jodi Wille went on to co-found Process Media in 2005 with husband Adam Parfrey of Feral House. Process Media now distributes the Dilettante titles. Hedi El Kholti is currently managing editor and partner of Semiotext(e). References
