About the series: The For Everard zine series chronicles the 1977 fire at New York's Everard Baths, combining archival research with imagined narratives to re-focus attention to obscured histories. The series explores the media coverage ofthe subsequent investigation ofthe fire, andthe lives ofthe nine men who perished. The zines bring together photographic images with primary news sources, as well as personal anecdotes collected from eyewitness testimonials.
About the individual zines:
For Everard, Vol. 1, 2013, ed. 100 (nr. 65)
This zine chronicles the May 25, 1977 fire at New York's Everard Baths andthe media coverage ofthe subsequent investigation.
For Everard, Vol. 2 (Bloodbrothers), 2013, ed. 100 (Nr. 81)
In the second volume of his series chronicling the 1977 fire at New York’s Everard Baths, Anthony Malone focuses on Bellevue Hospital’s blood drive for the victims ofthe great bathhouse tragedy. Malone draws parallels between the 1977 restrictions placed on gay men for donating blood to their “brothers” and current FDA guidelines that indefinitely defer donations from men who have had sex with men since 1977. This black and white photocopied zine (ed 100) juxtaposes archival images, news clippings, and just a touch of fantasy.
For Everard, Vol. 3 (Remembering Jimmy), 2015, ed. 100 (Nr. 94)
Volume 3 ofthe series, For Everard is dedicated to the memory of Jimmy Stuard, who died in the tragic fire at the Everard Baths in 1977. Stuard was a rising star in the disco music scene. He spun records first at Boston’s 1270 Club, and later at New York’s 12 West, where he inspired an entire generation of musical artists and DJs. In this particular volume, Anthony Malone assembles images and archival texts that serve as a tribute to the great Jimmy Stuard.
For Everard, Vol. 4 (A Lovely Show), 2016, ed. 100 (Nr. 62)
For Everard, Vol. 4 (A Lovely Show) is a tribute to Kenneth Hill, one ofthe nine men who died in the devastating fire at the Everard Baths in 1977. Kenn played a vital role in the East Village/Lower East side countercultural movement in the late ‘60s and 1970s. He was a hippie, a bar tender at Phebe’s (a watering hole and salon for the experimental theater community in the 1970s), one ofthe founders ofthe Old Reliable Theatre Tavern, House Manager at La Mama Experimental Theatre Club, and a photographer. This zine celebrates Kenneth Hill by collaging archival documents with personal artifacts and pictures of Kenn from meaningful moments in his life.
For Everard, Vol. 5 (A Dearly Loved Man), 2017, ed. 100 (Nr. 95)
For Everard, Vol. 5 (A Dearly Loved Man) assembles images and stories from the life of Ira Landau, a gifted and dedicated teacher who died in the tragic fire at the Everard Baths in 1977. Ira left behind a devoted family (his mother, brother, niece, and lover) and is still greatly missed by his loved ones. This zine is a tribute to the life and accomplishments of a remarkable man who served in the Peace Corps and committed himself to educating young minds both abroad (in the Middle East) and at home in theUS. It contains family photos and personal images generously contributed by Ira’s niece.
For Everard, Vol. 6 (Yosef’s Song), 2017, ed. 100 (Nr. 94)
Volume 6 ofthe series For Everard celebrates the life of a remarkable musical prodigy, Yosef Synovec. This zine tells the story of a young man with great aspirations who emigrated to the United States from Czechoslovakia to study classical violin. In 1976, Holly Woodlawn overheard Synovec vocalizing as he was painting the bathroom of his East Village apartment, and determined on the spot that she had discovered an emerging star. As a singer, Synovec used his extreme vocal range to imitate the voice and persona of Peruvian diva Yma Sumac. He performed Sumac’s exotic musical numbers at several New York City cabarets and show venues. Sadly, on May 25, 1977, Yosef perished in the tragic fire at the Everard Baths.
For Everard, Vol. 7 (Tony from the Bronx), 2017, ed. 100 (Nr. 86)
This zine brings together images and stories from the life of Tony Calarco, one ofthe nine men who died in the fire at the Everard Baths in 1977. Tony was only 26 when he died. He lived with his parents and siblings in a modest house in the Bronx. He had recently graduated from college and was working as a social worker in New York city at the time of his death. Tony had aspirations to become a lawyer and was scheduled to begin law school in September of 1977. This zine celebrates Tony Calarco’s memory through photos of Tony, artifacts from his high school and college years, and recent photographs of his home and final resting place.
For Everard, Vol. 8 (Looking for Amado), 2017, ed. 100 (Nr.84)
Amado Alamo, a young man only 17 years old, lost his life in the fire at the Everard Baths in 1977. In Volume 8 of For Everard, Anthony Malone documents his search for the identity oftheyoungest victim ofthe Everard fire. The zine is an abstracted portrait of Alamo that assembles the few extant fragments of his story culled from newspaper articles and documentary sources glued together with the artist’s imagination.
For Everard, Vol. 9 (Last Call), 2017, ed. 100 (Nr.72)
Life was difficult for Hillman Wesley Adams. He was born in Jacksonville FL in 1938. His mother died just a few months after his birth, andbythe age of nine, he found himself in an orphanage with his older brother. Fast forward 30 years: Hillman moved to NYC, struggled to make ends meet while working on andoff as a bartender, and he met his lover, Ralph, with whom he shared a modest apartment in New Jersey. On May 25, 1977, Hillman died in the fire at the Everard Baths. Vol. 9 of For Everard is an assemblage of newspaper articles and vintage photos chronicling the life and untimely death of Hillman Wesley Adams.
For Everard, Vol. 10 (In Memoriam: Patrick Nott), 2018, ed. 100 (Nr. 64)
Volume 10 of For Everard memorializes the life of Patrick Nott, one ofthe nine men who died in the fire at the Everard Baths. Nott, a native of Wales with a passion for theater, literature, and music, pursued a successful career in hairdressing. He fell in love with his pen pal (a young woman from Brooklyn) and after their marriage, they moved to New York City, where Nott worked at the Vidal Sassoon Salon. This zine weaves together elements from his story (shared with the artist by Patrick Nott’s wife), with photographs, newspaper clippings, and artifacts. It acts as a humble tribute, an “In Memoriam” for this greatly loved man.
For Everard, Vol. 11 (Thunderbird), 2019, ed. 100 (Nr. 79)
Brian Duffy was an aspiring artist. In 1966 he was accepted to Pratt Institute of Art and although he declined admission to the school, he seized the opportunity to move to NYC and start a new life for himself. In the city, he worked hard at various retail jobs and tried to break into thetheater, but everything changed when he met the love of his life, Bradley. The couple moved to a “quieter life” in Boston. They worked in restaurants in the Back Bay area and created a community for themselves amongst their chosen family of friends. Volume 11 of For Everard celebrates the brief life of Brian Duffy, a young man who died in the fire at the Everard Baths in 1977. This zine compiles photographs and stories shared with Malone by Brian’s sister and dear friend. The pseudonym "Anthony Malone" comes from a novel byAndrew Holleran (Dancer from the Dance). In this novel, Malone is the protagonist and at the end he disappears. Some of his friends believe that he may have committed suicide, others feel that he may have run away from New York, while some say that they saw him at the Everard Baths on the night ofthe fire. I imagine that Malone survived the fire and he is now making books and zines telling the story ofthe tragedy.
His mustache looked like it would tickle. That’s probably the only reason why I didn’t want to kiss him.
He was a weirdo, but not weird enough, if youknow what I mean. He certainly had a flair for details. It wasn’t that. I mean, it’s not like he was wearing a mullet, no. Nor like the kind of guy to gift me a Chinatown Gucci bag. He hated scented soaps and he’d drag me out of any decent party if he found scenty sticks near the toilet. That kind of thing drove him nuts. It’s not like he had anything against grapefruit.
Early on in our friendship, he gave me a box of Gioconda pencils from Koh-I-Noor. He knew how to get me hooked. But that damn mustache. It was so thick, so neatly trimmed. He paid too much attention to the kind of things I didn’t want to pay attention to. The cappuccino foam in it, however, was a kind of turn-on.
This is no doubt why you are holding this book in your hands. His mustache, right? Admit it. It’s the bowl of bonbons bythe register. But then you go undercover, under the sheets to find a lot of nudity, thwarted porn. Ja, ja, ja: bodies. Corporeality. Corporation, cooperation. Protest. Violence. Religion. Collage. A torn sheet at the back. A misbound book? A defect or just vulnerable?
Selbsthilfe ist auch keine Lösung (even self-help is not a solution) and Protestvorbild Frankreich (protest “role model” in France?) is the only text you can make out other than mine. You’re meant to struggle to read it, or maybe Erik (who has no mustache) was being intentionally casual about the way he cut out these pictures. It’s an awareness of being sloppy that is so aware, it’s no longer sloppy. A man standing with his fist held high. He’s standing in the window frame of an apartment at least one story up from the ground. He is forty and mad and he enjoys his Bud. His form of protest is a form of solidarity from the sofa. A window protest: comfy. So fucking clever. Then there’s the picture abutting it of a woman holding out her bra. We are meant to take it. She’s offering it to us. Go ahead. She wants you to. Andthen there’s the spooning bodies with their tube socks in a wad next to… a bed. A solar bed. You got it? This book is brown sugar. Stinky Swiss cheese. Bad, bad, good, good.

... If youknow me at all, then youknow I like to operate where I see vacuums in the culture. Zine El-Arab came about precisely for that reason. This was 2011, a time of great revolutionary upheaval that started in Tunisia, spilled over into Egypt, and kind of spread from there not just in the region but halfway across the world. By late 2011, there was really no denying the ripples of change pulsating through Cairo. It was evident on the streets, in music, conversations, at art galleries, on television, it was everywhere. But I was growing frustrated that there didn’t seem to be any regular publication that featured the voices of dissent that were otherwise all around you. It felt like there was a rift between everyday voices and what was being published, and how cool would it be if there were at least one? Especially if it were a crude one. ...
... Die Formel war scheinbar ganz einfach. Das Titelbild (von mir erstellt) wurde auf Social Media veröffentlicht und lud Mitwirkende aus dem arabischsprachigen Raum ein, darauf entweder mit Text oder Bild zu antworten (nur S/W). Entsprechende Einreichungen werden ausgewählt und zu einem digitalen Zine zusammengestellt, der als PDF mit detaillierten Anweisungen für Druck und Montage hochgeladen wird. Die Idee war, nicht nur den Inhalt, sondern auch die physische Produktion des Zine zu dezentralisieren, wodurch Mitwirkende und Leser ihre eigenen Kopien drucken und organisch unter ihren Gemeinschaften verbreiten konnten. In Wirklichkeit hatten beide Ausgaben ihre "Launchparties", Ausgabe eins in Makan in Jordanien und Ausgabe zwei in der Townhouse Gallery in Kairo, was bedeutete, dass für jeden Start etwa 100 Exemplare gedruckt und zusammengestellt werden mussten.
Eine Sache, die ich tun wollte, war, die Tatsache zu nutzen, dass jedes Exemplar technisch individuell gedruckt und gebunden wurde. So gab es beispielsweise für die Ausgabe #1 Anweisungen, den Blutfleck manuell auf das Cover zu malen, und im Inneren befand sich eine Seite (mit mehreren Bildern verziert), die für den Druck auf Klebepapier bestimmt war, auf der die Leser ausschneiden und als Aufkleber verwenden konnten.
Es sollte beachtet werden, dass es im Namen der Zine ein kleines Wortspiel gibt. Das Wort "zine" in arabischer Sprache ist die gleiche genaue Schreibweise wie das Wort "zain", was in etwa "das Beste" bedeutet. So schlägt Zine El-Arab nicht nur "die Zine des Arabers" vor, sondern wird gleichzeitig als "das Beste vom Araber" gelesen. ...

ZusatzInfos
TheWilliam Crawford Estate is owned and represented by Ampersand Gallery. William Crawford's drawings were discovered in an abandoned house in Oakland, California. His work brings to mind characteristics of prison drawings, an impression confirmed bythe fact that several were made on the backs of prison roster sheets dated 1997. These printouts, however, were cut down the middle, so the exact prison from which they originate is unknown. But given their origin in the Bay Area andthe fact that several drawings include San Francisco landmarks, it's possible that Crawford made the work in a California state prison. Other than this information drawn from the archive itself, nothing is known about Crawford's life. Indeed, we only know his name because he signed just a few ofthe drawings, either as Bill, William or WM Crawford. The archive appears to have consisted of several books, with individual drawings in sequences of 30 or more adding up to tell complex visual stories. Several include written captions or fragments of conversation between male and female characters. These sequences, however, have been broken up over the years and reach us now in a fragmentary and fascinating collection of hundreds of delicate pencil drawings. The work conveys the intense sense of sexual longing of a man with an urge to tell dynamic stories. The drawings, which resemble the eroticism of Eric Stanton, the exaggerated male anatomy of Tom of Finland or the ample breasts of a John Currin, show scantily dressed women, drug use, cuckolding and orgies. The details of his interiors, the hairdos and style of dress suggest that Crawford might have come of age in the late 70s or early 80s. A cast of recurring figures populate the drawings, notably one man with a short afro and a moustache who often figures at the center of events, presumably the artist William Crawford himself. Remarkably, given the number of drawings, there is little to no repetition in the work. Crawford’s inventive eye for sexual positions, facial expressions and gestures of handand body was vast and masterful. Simple geometric details and architectural subtleties define the unusual settings where the action unfolds. We see rooms shown from unusual angles, features that are hinted at, erased or altogether omitted and articles of clothing that are drawn with obsessive precision. This singular and original drawing style compels us to immerse ourselves in the world William Crawford created, more dream than documentation, more fantasy than perversion. Crawford's drawings have been widely exhibited, notably at Galerie Susanne Zander (Cologne and Berlin), Zieher, Smith and Horton (New York), Freddy (Baltimore) and upcoming solo exhibitions at FARAGO (Los Angeles) and Richardson (New York). His work is also featured in the latest issue of Richardson Magazine and was included in "System and Vision" at David Zwirner, an exhibition organized in collaboration with Delmes & Zander. Reviewing it, The New Yorker wrote, "William Crawford's orgiastic illustrations on the backs of prison rosters haven an erotic intensity that rivals anything by Hans Bellmer or Pierre Klossowski."

The relationship between infrastructure governance andthe ways we read and represent waste systems, examined through three waste tracking and participatory sensing projects.
Waste is material information. Landfills are detailed records of everyday consumption and behavior. much of what we know about the distant past we know from discarded objects unearthed by archaeologists and interpreted by historians. And yet the systems and infrastructures that process our waste often remain opaque. In this book, Dietmar Offenhuber examines waste from the perspective of information, considering emerging practices and technologies for making waste systems legible and how the resulting datasets and visualizations shape infrastructure governance. He does so by looking at three waste tracking and participatory sensing projects in Seattle, São Paulo, and Boston.

The Typographic Society Munich is the largest organisation in Europe for typographers and people who are interested in typography and design. Since being founded in 1874 the designers’ club establishes a foundation for sophisticated and interdisciplinary thinking and dialogues among content and form, text and photo, tradition and innovation, design and technology. The tgm represents quality and education for the branch of communication andoffers a huge accompanying training program. As Chairwoman ofthe club I curated several lectures in the last years, inviting design and typography celebrities.Throughout the years designers like Stefan Sagmeister, Mirko Borsche, Eike König, Mario Lombardo, Sascha Lobe, Fons Hickmann, Amir Kassaei or Kurt Weidemann to name a view, followed these invitations and appreciated the warm welcome of our community.
To show the wide range ofofferings we traditionally create a yearbook. More over I tried to give the content based complexity of our proposal a clear and neat arrangement. Therefore the new release is a compilation of four different books, which should invite the reader to inform themselves, to browse, to experience and to participate. The first one exposes all the topics, facts and dates for the further education programs. Part two presents all the people andtheir stories who are involved in the club, who are on stage and behind the scenes. The third book is a journey into the past and also the future of tgm’s conferences, excursions and other specials. And finally there is room for the reader’s own ideas, experiences and criticism as a foundation for a future dialogue with tgm.
Every offer under the roofof tgm is a result of solidarity. It is a result of people and companies who are united bythe common interest in typographic quality. This project has only been possible with the support of Kösel Druck GmbH & Co Kg, Geese Paper, mycolorserver andthe collaboration with Boah Kim.

Kenneth Goldsmith wants you to rethink the internet. Many people feel guilty after spending hours watching cat videos or clicking link after link after link. But Goldsmith sees that “wasted” time differently. Unlike old media, the internet demands active engagement—and it’s actually making us more social, more creative, even more productive. When Goldsmith, a renowned conceptual artist and poet, introduced a class at the University of Pennsylvania called “Wasting Time on the Internet”, he nearly broke the internet. The New Yorker, the Atlantic, the Washington Post, Slate, Vice, Time, CNN, the Telegraph, and many more, ran articles expressing their shock, dismay, and, ultimately, their curiosity. Goldsmith’s ideas struck a nerve, because they are brilliantly subversive—and endlessly shareable. In Wasting Time on the Internet, Goldsmith expands upon his provocative insights, contending that our digital lives are remaking human experience. When we’re “wasting time,” we’re actually creating a culture of collaboration. We’re reading and writing more—and quite differently. And we’re turning concepts of authority and authenticity upside-down. The internet puts us in a state between deep focusand subconscious flow, a state that Goldsmith argues is ideal for creativity. Where that creativity takes uswill be one ofthe stories ofthe twenty-first century. Wide-ranging, counterintuitive, engrossing, unpredictable—like the internet itself—Wasting Time on the Internet is the manifesto you didn’t knowyou needed.

... I am writing you because I interviewed you for my research project ARTZINES, in which I explored the world of zines made by artists. The project started in 2015, so the interview in question might have happened ages ago. If it was a video interview, it should be on Vimeo and here: https://www.youtube.com/@ARTZINESINFO
I have been collecting 88 testimonies from various people interested in zines for a very long time, and I wanted to gather all ofthem into a book about zines made by artists. Then life happened, the good andthe bad, until I met the Objet Papier collective, who published Print It, a web-to-print magazine generated from a website to be different each time.
For the past two years, I worked with them to create an interactive and generative ARTZINES book that is different each time it is downloaded (I counted 130.749.696 possibilities, but that’s a low estimate).

“We want you to GO INSIDE — your house, andyour self. Everything is about interiors now: the interior ofyour home, your mind, your archive, your hard drive. Mine it all for insight and purpose.
Once that’s done, show off what you find – just because you’re alone doesn’t mean you can’t share from within. There is no such thing as “too much information” now; COVID-19 took out “TMI.” In fact, there is no more “enough” — enough data, enough circulation, enough fodder. Binge on it. Burn out on it. Document it. Post it. Build a website for it. Get turned on by it. Get freaked out by it. Open up your screens, talk about your dreams, slide into those DMs. Get dressed up to go absolutely nowhere. Never go out, but leave nothing “behind the scenes” – there is no “behind,” and no “in front of” either. There is only “now,” and it is Big and Flat. Closeness happens at a distance here, but dialogue has never been this intimate. Your private hygiene is a matter of public health, your personal cloister backdrops community debate. Dualities — east and west, north and south, usandthem, out and in — melt into each other and coat the old world like lava, like an act of god. In the New Interior isolation is a commons, the self that inhabits it is a collective. Historical moments stack vertically and occur simultaneously, around the globe. Welcome to the novel sanctum sanctorum, the single-occupant House of We.

Chances are that youwill be far more familiar with Brian Eno and his work than you might realise. Whether youknow him as a founding member ofthe gloriously influential 1970s art-rock outfit Roxy Music, or as the inventor of ambient music, in one breathless career Eno has actually released no less than 25 solo albums and contributed to countless projects and collaborations, but also left his fingerprints on dozens of seminal albums as a producer – think U2, Talking Heads or Coldplay, to name but a few – composed several film scores not to mention the start-up theme for Microsoft’s Windows 95. All of which is to say that it is hard to not be in earshot of his musical influence in one way or another. With mono.kultur, Brian Eno talked about the impact of technology on culture, the similarities between producing music and parenting, and why they called Elvis ‘The Pelvis’. Given Brian Eno’s interest in how art can affect moods and emotions, our new issue turned into somewhat of an experiment in chromatics, with the pages gradually traveling the entire colour spectrum from yellow to blue and back again, which not only affects the optical perception ofthe yellow text, but also how one responds to the content ofthe interview. Suffice to say: this must certainly rank as the most colourful mono.kultur to date.

Erste Ausgabe des Dodo Magazins. Das Heft hat - wie eine Kassette - zwei Seiten A und B und muss zum Lesen ab dem Centerfold umgedreht werden.
Dodo is the adventure, science and fantasy magazine you have been waiting for. This magazine is for anyone that has ever wanted a treehouse. Dodo is a time machine, a theme park, a trip to the moon, a horror story, a prehistoric site, an unsolved mystery, even a Zeppelin voyage. It’s a magazine that will make you feel as if you were reading it under your sheets with a flashlight. With every passing page, you’ll leave behind everything around you as you enter your own world, a place where nothing bad can happen, where everything has yet to be discovered; a place where you had already been before but had forgotten.

Wide-ranging and multi-faceted this intriguing and beautifully produced book will change the way you relate to paper in an increasingly “paperless” society.
While sheets of paper are disappearing from our homes andoffices, the medium is experiencing a renaissance in the worlds of art, design, and architecture. Suddenly, paper is everywhere— but not only in the old familiar places or forms. This fascinating book looks at every aspect of paper: its history, composition, production, application, and trade. Beginning with the anatomy of paper and its earliest forms, this book looks at paper as a symbol of political and economic importance and as a carrier of ideas, from literature to art, design, and music. It looks at the different surfaces, opacities, weights and volumes of paper and how it is used for printing, typography, graphics, and maps as well as a vehicle for origami, architecture, and fashion. Sumptuously illustrated with photographs and drawings, this book includes a variety of papers for readers to examine and feel, highlighting the sensual aspects of this seemingly ordinary product. Engaging, entertaining, and informative, this book contains a wealth ofuseful and surprising information on every printed, colored, and textured page.

Einladung zur Ausstellung "You are my Wave II", vom 12.09-09.10.2020 im Apartment der Kunst, Schönfeldstraße 19.
Mit der Ausstellung "You are in my Wave ll" kuratiert von der dänischen Kuratorin Lene Harbo Pedersen beschließen wir die Ausstellungssaison 2020 im Apartment der Kunst. Anknüpfend an die Ausstellung "You are in my Wave I", die Lene Harbo Pedersen gemeinsam mit Jörg Koopman 2017 für die Kunsthalle Lothringer 13 konzipierte, wird das Konzept der Welle in der unbewußten Wahrnehmung wieder aufgenommen.
Wahrend sich die erste Ausstellung vorwiegen auf Sound (Schallwelle) als Medium konzentrierte, steht bei You are in my Wave ll die Photographie (Lichtwelle) im Focus. In einer Zeit, in der das Photo vorwiegend für Präzision und/oder für Kontrolle Synonym ist, hat Pedersen für diese Ausstellung 6 Künstler ausgewählt, die dem Unbekannten, Unkontrollierbaren und auch dem Unbewußten in ihrer photografischen Arbeit Raum geben. Rückblickend auf die Anfänge der Photographie war das Ungewisse und nicht Vorhersagbare ein immanenter Teil des Prozesses, der erst mit der Entwicklung des Photos abgeschlossen war.
Die Welle als Übermittler von Information beinhaltet immer das Prinzip von Sender und Empfänger. In You are in my Wave ll begegnet man 6 Positionen der analogen Photokunst, die sich schon im Prozess der Entstehung auf einem Feld des Unkontrollierbaren bewegen, in dem ein „Fehler“ keine negative Konnotation mehr haben kann, sondern nach der Übermittlung an den Empfänger mit Hilfe des Lichts Räume eröffnet werden, die sich dem Bewußten und der Kontrolle entziehen. Pedersen bezieht sich hier in der Konzeption der Ausstellung auf die Phänomenologie Husserls, in der anstelle rationaler Erkenntnis, der Erkenntnisgewinn in der geistigen und intuitiven Anschauung des Wesens der Gegenstände und Sachverhalte liegt.

Mike Perry makes paintings, animation, sculptures, books, public art installations, monographs, exhibitions, drawings, silkscreens, and more. His creative purpose is to conjure that feeling of soul-soaring wonder you have when you stare into distant galaxies on a dark night, when you go on long journeys into the imagination, when you ponder what it is that this life is all about. In so doing, he celebrates form: ofthe human body, of shapes and lines that coalesce into lyrical masses, ofthe vastness ofthe cosmos andthe questions it calls us to. In Mike’s patterns, portraits, and dreamscapes, there are layers upon layers of meaning, some erased, some covering, some asking you to look deeper, some no longer there but still vibrating with a story that sought not to be forgotten. His use of color, pattern, and form, at times child-like, expresses a joyful spirit and a reverence for the bliss that is inherent in the human experience.

recorded at the Electronic Church in 2007.
Saxophon recorded at the Electronic Church in 2007. No overdubs, no manipulations.
When we (naivsuper) met Antoine in november 2007 to record his saxophone drones we didn´t really know what to expect because Antoine´s drones are perfect in a live situation. We weren´t sure if we could capture the richness of his sound, his working with the accoustics of a room andthe strange almost discomforting breathing noises he makes when circular breathing on a CD. We basically wanted to hear him moving in the room, we wanted to see with our ears.
For the recording we chose the Electronic Church in Berlin because we have seen him perform there earlier the same year and it was absolutely fantastic. The day ofthe recording was an incredible cold day in Berlin and due to the fact that the Church has no heating we could see our breath and feel the unbelievable cold humidity of a groundfloor room that hasn´t been aired in some time crawling up our pants.
It took Antoine almost an hour to warm up the saxophone and to get a satisfying tone. When he was finally ready to record the first take he was already a little bit out of breath. After 5 minutes of circular breathing his nose and lung started to freeze. We then tried a few more times but after another hour we were all coughing and sneezing andthe saxophone was frozen so that we decided to postpone this session.
When we listened to the material at home we discovered that there was almost everything we wanted. We recorded how Antoine is fighting the cold andthe exhaustion. There is the room, the breathing and movement. There is sound - almost an evolution of sounds - they are born slowly, grow up andthen slowly disappear or extinguish.
We highly recommend you to listen with headphones. A follow up to this great document is planned, too

Edmund de Waal is a potter. His pots, plates, and vessels are the result of craft and mastership, but they are also so much more than that: they are experiments in form and function, abstractions of thoughts on silence and space, on repetition and failure, on substance and fragility, on memory contained. Edmund de Waal is an artist. He arranges his objects in complex choreographies that are as mysterious as they are mesmerizing. Displayed in galleries and institutions worldwide, his considered installations play with architectural concerns, integrating ideas of space, light and obscurity. Edmund de Waal is a writer. Whether he sculpts with words or with clay, what Edmund de Waal works with are concepts, ideas, and desires. In a body of work that is at odds with our times and yet oddly successful, his writings and objects overlap and integrate each other in an attempt to understandand transcend our complex relationship with objects and our surroundings. In an interview with mono.kultur structured like an A-Z of notes and ideas, Edmund de Waal talked about his rules of attachment, the impossibility of repetition, and why ‘doubt’ is the most beautiful word. Visually, the issue takes inspiration from that most perfect of materials: porcelain. Printed entirely in double-sided splendour, the two finishings ofthe paper – shiny gloss and smooth matt – evoke the texture of ceramics before and after glazing.

In our most colourful issue yet, we step into the life and work of architect Francis Kéré, known in equal measure for his lighthearted and innovative architecture, his remarkable background, and his infectious sense of optimism. Kéré has completed numerous projects both in Africa and beyond, including schools, medical centres, cultural institutions, and temporary installations, such as the renowned annual Serpentine Pavilion in 2017. Frequently relying on local materials and infrastructure, his work is marked by a profound simplicity and refreshing lightness, meeting technical problems with surprising and seemingly effortless solutions. It reflects his attitude that architecture should, in its most primary function, seek to improve the lives ofthe people who inhabit it. With mono.kultur, Francis Kéré talked about his long trajectory from a remote village in Africa to Berlin, his steadfast belief in optimism, and what makes a tree a perfect piece of architecture. Designwise, we followed Kéré’s principle to work with what is at hand, sourcing papers from dead stock at our printers’, essentially using an assortment of leftovers. And colour, of course, with the issue based on the national colours of Burkina Faso, paying tribute to the idea of culture as a shared ground to build upon.

What do Martin Luther and Pete Townshend, Ozzie Osbourne and Oscar Wilde, Ludwig Van Beethoven and Star Trek’s Dr. Spock have in common? They all painfully suffered from tinnitus, a permanent hiss heard in one or both ears. The condition affects a large percentage ofthe world population (5-10%) and represents a real “occupational illness” for musicians and rock fans. On the subject, surprisingly, an inexplicable silence is observed bythe music press and industry. At the current state of medical research, there is no effective cure for chronic tinnitusandthe unpleasant humming can only get worse if you do not protect the ears properly.
In the works for nearly five years, the triple concept album Tinnitus Tales (a 10" vinyl record and two CDs) conceived by Le Forbici di Manitù (i.e. Manitù Rossi and Vittore Baroni, the second long suffering from tinnitus) with the collaboration of over fifty guest musicians, bands and international visual artists, breaks the veil of silence with a series of songs that address the topic blending humor and empathy. The songs are inspired by well-known cases of people suffering from tinnitus, such as Andy Partridge of XTC or Bono andThe Edge of U2. To make this "educational audio project" a more collective effort, several old and new friends - many ofthem with tinnitus problems - were invited to record their own versions ofthe songs by Le Forbici di Manitù or to contribute original compositions on the subject (included in the CD 1 Songs).

‘Curated by Weekly’ is a digital art project. It aims to raise questions regarding online formats, web-based distribution andthe acceleration of digital platforms in contemporary art. The project is made up of a website and a magazine, which will be released in irregular intervals. The latter will include essays and interventions about digital exhibition formats, the experiences of digital curation andthe questions about media and matter in the post-analogue space. Every week, an artwork will be “curated” and published on the website. In cooperation with different individuals, institutions and independent projects from the art field, artistic positions and works will be displayed. They can function as pieces of art in the digital sphere as well as be critical about it, or to contrast itself with the functions ofthe web. The project’s pace and composition orientates itself around the relevant visual environment ofthe present day. The format ofthe website is consciously purely visual, while complementary content will be published in the magazine. This content will consist of essays and contributions around certain questions. For example: How new formats will be established in contemporary art, which technological tools are required or how curation is practiced in a digital space. What should particularly be highlighted is determining which artistic media, surfaces and materialities provide an adequate digital environment.
'Curated by Weekly' aims for an experimental format, which uses the speed andthe possibilities ofthe digital space, but instead of reproductions and documentations we want to show artistic work itself, to address availability in the digital space and to use catchy visual surfaces. At the same time, the discourse andthe self-reflection ofthe format is discussed in the appearing magazines/readers online andoffline.

Katalog zur Ausstellung im Museion, Museum für Moderne Kunst Bozen, 13.09.-17.11.1996, Frankfurter Kunstverein, 21.01.-03.03.1997."Purely visual perception and viewing of pictures is impossible. We always encounter pictorial images - as in this book description itself - in contexts. It is to this complex of interrelationships between text and photography andthe aesthetic potential it holds that the book photo text text photo is dedicated. Based upon a representative selection of important examples of this work across media boundaries from recent photographic history since 1967, thetheme ofthe fertile tension between words and images is explored in images (more than 100 works by 32 different artists) and words (texts byAndreas Hapkemeyer and Peter Weiermair). This revealing look at the art of combining text and photography begins with the milestone works of Conceptual Artists such Joseph Kosuth, Robert Barry, Douglas Huebler, On Kawara, John Baldessari and Hamish Fulton. Alongside other early examples from Italy - Maurizio Nannucci, Giulio Paolini, and Vincenzo Agnetti - the book also features representatives of utopian and critical approaches to social issues, including Josef Beuys and Klaus Staeck. The 1970s and 1980s are represented bythe artists Ketty La Rocca, Jochen Gerz, Karen Knorr and Urs Luthi. More recent and current positions are evident in the works of Louise Lawler, Jenny Holzer, Barbara Kruger, Ken Lum, Heiner Blum, Laura Padgett and Marie-Jo Lafontaine. The publication photo text photo provides a long-awaited inventory ofthe most recent developments in the aesthetic exploration ofthe relationships between text and images in contemporary art."

BAU was founded in 2004 in Viareggio, on the coast of Tuscany, by a group of artists and individuals interested in the many-sided aspects ofthe culture of our times. Thanks to a widespread and constantly expanding network of contacts, every year the project takes the shape of an expressly designed UniA4 sized box: BAU container of contemporary culture. This non-profit box is produced in a limited edition of 150 copies (120 for issue 1 and 200 for issues 9-10) and contains original works, signed and numbered, from a large number of international contributors. The BAU container fits in the vast tradition of assembling publications and artists‘ magazines that developed since the early sixties. It intends to experiment with new languages, technologies and materials, operating in a peculiar dimension of group work that is open also to contributions from non-artists: outsiders, travellers, collectors of curiosities, creative gastronomers, anomalous scientists.
In a relational and non competitive perspective that is responsive to the relationships between art and science, politics and environment, BAU acts as a meeting point in order to stimulate dialogues, interactions and exchanges among the most diverse disciplines: graphics, collage, photography andthe visual arts in general, but also poetical and narrative researches, acoustic and performative experiences, documents pertaining the fields of fashion and design, etc. The operative network expresses itself also through the planning of exhibitions, meetings, festivals and events, organized in institutional spaces (libraries, galleries, museums) and in atypic locations.

Legible-Visible. Between the Film Frame andthe Page explores the relationship between print publications and audio-visual documents, two ofthe most important media underpinning the social and cultural landscape of our time which also define the evolution of contemporary art in the 20th and 21st centuries. The emergence of relatively inexpensive home video technologies in the 1970s brought with it an alternative model for the creation and diffusion of artist publications, and a prolific period of exploration, reflected in the work of Baldessari, Gilbert & George, Boltanski, Carrión, Rucha and Rosler, among others. The popularization of digital media at the beginning ofthe 21st century sparked a revolution in the systems of production of both audio-visuals and books, exemplified by a new generation of artists, such as McGeorge, Kentridge, Cine Quieto or Van Leijsen.
Mela Dávila proposes a theoretical and historical framework for works that the market long dismissed as secondary on account oftheir serial nature. This characteristic, together with the particular space of experience they generate, andthe linearity and temporality common to both media, have opened up a range of new narrative (or anti-narrative) possibilities which have enabled artists to redefine contemporary art.
Starting from a detailed study of 24 double works, Maite Muñoz looks at how different artists have taken advantage ofthe permeability between publications and audio-visuals, in which ideas and strategies of narration and editing intrinsic to both mutually infect and enrich one another through the play of opposition, complementarity and dialectics.

75 g/m² started as a black and white photocopy exhibition. The project was initiated by Maycec, a photographer, self-publisher and graphic designer who draws inspiration from alternative culture and her personal life. She is co-founder of Vesselroom Project and Atelier29. The first 75 g/m² exhibition took place in Berlin in 2014 with Maycec alongside Vonverhille and Damien Sayer whom both grew up in the suburbs of Paris. Vonverhille started in the graffiti scene in the 90s. He diversified his means of expression and explored photography and experimental electronic music. He now lives in Berlin where he founded Erratum galerie. Damien Sayer has photographed his family, friends and encounters over the course of five years. His small format pictures remain simple documentary pages, simple facts or portraits recorded on a sheet of paper. Alizee Lenox joined the exhibitions 75 g/m2 part II and part III. She is a poet DeepLy influenced by Pop Culture mostly because you cannot not be influenced by a soft machine that creates so many idols you can hate and worship at the same time. She is currently working on her first chapbook manuscript.
The independent publisher's quarterly by Drucken Heften Laden. Drucken Heften Laden discusses and analyses the conditions and possibilities for independent publishing in the context of art and city (politics). Drucken Heften Laden derives from an eponymous exhibition, workshop and series of events at neue Gesellschaft für bildende Kunst (nGbK) in Berlin which took place in January 2015. Since then a small group of Berlin-based producers and publishers gathers regularly: “We share experiences and resources, and build a discourse around production methods and values as well as the distribution of books and booklets.Publishing is always set in distinct time and space. Today’s diversity of media fosters hybrid formats between the analogue andthe digital. We are interested to negotiate and sharpen our idea of what „independent“ and „self“ publishing means today.Drucken Heften Laden filters and disseminates information, and creates a public platform for exchange and discussion, accessible to everyone interested in such practice.”

A journal written at the third person that seeks to depict Antoine d’Agata’s quest – the inexorable course from void to void.A literary and photographic experiment where words, sometimes descriptive, sometimes poetic, intersect with images in a narrative continuity. An example ofthe photographer’s existential choice and form of resistance which leads toward the subject’s disappearance andthe ego’s negation within the neutral spectrum ofthe image while insisting on an intimate involvement with its matter and a perfect superposition of art and life. The pictures have been treated and reduced to the simple black and white contrast, following the main axis of this editorial project: shaplessness andthe sense of fading-out. This flattening to a drawing effect releases the image as a shadow, a border between a recognizable sign and a blurry, ambiguous one, so that the photograph is both “trace” and “other”. The book, whose main language is English, also foresees a separate and folded poster, including texts in French on one side and, for the first time, in Italian on the other printed on a background colour image. The two languages allow to include texts in their original version, but allude as well to the artist’s double origins. In line with the book, the poster also reflects d’Agata’s search direction towards the interlacing of word and image and it finally refers to the idea of a topographic description of passions. Member ofthe Magnum agency, Antoine d’Agata (1961) is one ofthe most influential photographers of his generation. He lives in both Paris and Marseilles and he works around the world. He is represented bythe gallery Les Filles du Calvaire, Paris.

Inspired bythe press images from the Vietnam War that told a very different story to theofficial government statements, James Nachtwey found his calling that he would pursue with determination and compassion that are admirable: to document the effects of war, terror and disease. In the hope of raising awareness and inspiring intervention and change, his photographs are neither easy to look at nor easy to forget. Having witnessed and reported on the defining conflicts and tragedies ofthe past three decades – from the revolutions of South America and Eastern Europe to the famines in Africa, from 9/11 to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan – Nachtwey’s photographs focus on the costs of war: the suffering of civilians, the damage andthe scars. There is no doubt that Nachtwey’s images are a challenge – to the powers that be by proposing an unflinching look at the reality on the ground, at the effects of politics on human lives, but also to us as their audience, by questioning our implication and, quite simply, by opening our eyes to the world. In a rare and frank interview with mono.kultur, James Nachtwey talked about his struggles with photography, the different realities of war, and why images have the power to create change. Graphically, the issue is at its most reduced, giving ample space to let the words and images unfold: coming in two separate booklets, it presents a personal and uncommented selection of James Nachtwey’s work in one, and a highly intriguing and challenging conversation in the other.

The New Art Practice was a term created for a generation of artists in the former Yugoslavia active in the late 1960s and throughout the 1970s. These artists shifted their practice to spaces outside the traditional studio, onto city streets, into artist-run spaces, and in multimedia performances and experimental publications. Focusing on artists working in the city of Zagreb, this exhibition documents aspects of this shift and highlights the ability of artists' publications to record these often ephemeral gestures and ideas. While artists such as Goran Trbuljak, Braco Dimitrijević, Sanja Iveković, Mladen Stilinović, and Vlado Martek, among others, worked in a variety of mediums, they shared a common impulse to produce publications. These artists questioned and played with ideas about the place of an artist within this particular political and socioeconomic context. Their work often involved public participation and blurred traditional notions of authorship through collective activities, chance operations, andthe appropriation of language and imagery from the state and commercial media. The materials in this installation resonate with other contemporaneous scenes in Eastern and Central Europe and with broader international trends, while also providing an insight into very local networks of experimental artists and writers in Zagreb. All materials are drawn from the collection ofthe Museum of Modern Art Library.

Suture means sewing. This is the idea we will be following on each and every level of our festival. Suture Soven Music Festival emerged out ofthe wish andthe need to bring musicians andtheir audience together in a way that enhances deep listening and watching musical appearances that provide the potential for creating something new in a cheerful and caring atmosphere. We will watch and hear the beautifully radical positions and ideas of international musicians. In terms of musical style, we are situated at the intersection of jazz, free improvised music, classical modernism and new music. The first Suture Soven Music Festival will take place in an old farm house in the countryside. the concerts will be held in the barn and in the attic of an old stable. By locating the genre defying music in the beautiful countryside of Lower Saxony (Wendland) we invite local people from the area as well as from the cities to make the connection between different worlds and points of views for three days in Suture Soven. We are striving to shape the surrounding area ofthe festival and make it as sustainable as possible, while working with local farmers and craftsmen. We offer a space and time that taps on an urge to create a sensual narrative. The music we listen to, the words we hear and speak, the food and drink we are provided with, in a setting that will be home to us for three summer days offer usthe possibility of making sense.

F.U.N. (Funtastic United Nations) is an independent and supranational organization that intends to stimulate a cooperation amongst all kinds of imaginary countries and worlds, coordinating meetings, publications, exhibitions and events. We offer our skills and resources to create a bridge between creative and funtastic geographical entities, representing numberless and mutable virtual countries, multiethnical and transgender, where the passports, postage stamps and banknotes are real but not the wars.
F.U.N.’s vocation to interact in an horizontal “networking” attitude with local and distant, real and imaginary situations, to create unexpected interferences between art and daily life, is a strategy aimed at preserving the biodiversity of cultures and encouraging an eco-friendly, free and open participation to the creative experience. F.U.N. is the logic evolution of over twenty years of networking activities in the fields of mail art, of independent music (The Great Complotto, Le Forbici di Manitù), of collective multimedia projects (Trax), of multiple names (Lieutenant Murnau, Mind Invaders, Luther Blissett), of imaginary worlds and characters (Stickerman-Stickerland) andof counter-cultural documentation (various fanzines, AAA Editions).

Where have you been when you knew that Michael Jackson had died? This book of condolences contains a fold out poster with 100 Tweets from the hour when Michael Jackson's dead was announced. Within 140 characters pop-cultural news overlap with political happenings, trivia and gossip. The pointilistic map allows both revealing interconnections and absurd cross references
The Bermuda Love-Triangle, from 1988, is Tom Grothus's most elaborate production. The printing is all offset-lithography on quality stock. The black, red, and yellow cover includes some spot varnish highlights. The 24 leaves inside are printed in blue and black ink, for 48 pages of content. Interspersed among the pen-and-ink drawings are several beautiful duotones of pencil and ball-point-pen drawings. Some ofthe images in this book are like those of a dream that haunts you with an elusive meaning. The common literary thread throughout is a list of various proposed freedoms, such as the "Freedom to Obey Puppets." These may fill in some ofthe gaps left in the U.S. Constitution by that nation's founding fathers. Editor's Note: Gripping, lovely, haunted, serene, and impeccably surreal, this book of gentle hallucinations defies categorization. You might call them cartoons, but they will make you laugh silently for weeks. This is one ofthe nicest books we have ever held.

Martin Parr’s Scottish Postboxes have been described as the prolific photographer’s ‘only contribution to landscape photography’. However, what Mr. Parr has achieved with these images is more a series of portraits ofthe lonely outposts of civilisation. The Postboxes in each place, standing out red and awkward against the lonely and beautiful Scottish backdrops each have a personality and a character oftheir own. The postboxes are not only characters in the places they inhabit, they are symbols. the steadfast outposts ofthe institution that is the British postal service set against the untamable Scottish landscape invite the viewer the pause and ponder on their own place in the world.
“When you are in the middle of nowhere, in a bleak landscape and in wild weather, these little post boxes are strangely comforting, a sign that other people are around, that life is going on, and that you are connected to the world” – Susie Parr
This box contains twelve of Parr’s Postboxes, presented as postcards – a most appropriate form for the images to find themselves in, whether their fate is to be collected and cherished or themselves posted and shared.

Teil einer Installation, die in der Ausstellung "Marlene McCarty – Mund Verkehr: In die Hose gegangen" in der NGBK Berlin, 6.06.–12.07.1992 gezeigt wurde. Aus der Pressemitteilung zur Ausstellung:
Marlene McCarty’ (1957) Interesse gilt dem Machtgebaren und den patriarchalen Strukturen, der von ihnen geprägten männlichen Umgangssprache. Die alltäglichen Sprüche die ihr, einer Frau, auf den Straßen New Yorks zugerufen werden, die unverstellten oder unverschämten Aufforderungen mit denen sie konfrontiert wird, sind das Ausgangsmaterial für ihre künstlerischen Strategien wie für ihre Kunstobjekte.
Marlene McCarthy zur Installation: “This is a floor sculpture and it’s 15,000 matchbooks. They’re standard matchbooks you can order from a catalog. On one side they have pinup girls on them, and on the other side I had them print, ‘I got a clit so big I don’t need a dick.’ If you’ll notice, clit and dick are handwritten. The company had called me up and were like, ‘Ummm, we have a problem. We can print dick but we can’t print THAT OTHER WORD.’ She wouldn’t even say the word clit. So I said OK, take the mechanical—this was in the olden days—and just slice the dick andthe clit off. Then I got some friends together and we wrote them all in by hand. I’m reproducing these for the retrospective, but the curator is worried about whether we can have NYU students writing dick and clit 15,000 times. Maybe the seniors can do it.”

Martino Gamper is the kind of product designer we all have been waiting for: Brimming with ideas, energy and humour, his designs are disarmingly irreverent and irresistibly fun, and unlike anything one will see in the puristic galleries of contemporary design. Crossing over from studying sculpture to completing an MA in product design at the prestigious Royal College of Art under Ron Arad, Gamper has had little time to worry over thetheoretical do’s and don’t’s of his profession – instead, he has followed a simple rule of learning by doing, meaning: the more you do, the more you learn. With mono.kultur, Martino Gamper talked about his idea of fun, why a chair is the ultimate challenge and what design has in common with cooking. Visually, the issue is bursting with references and ideas, reclaiming image material from left and right, while unveiling the structure of a book with three booklets of different sizes all lovingly assembled into one – and manually at that, which makes for some rough edges or rather what we like to call extra personality.

Dear Reader,
In your hands is the Athenian issue of Krytyka Polityzcna. The Warsaw-based journal unites polymorphous freedom struggles in geographic Europe. This book is an anarchist, anti-capitalist, anti-fascist artwork. A hypothesis, and yet one that continues to be written actively on the ground. It clashes migration and education ofthe status quo, the effect andthe cause of current violence. The publication documents an initiative, Universitas*, and accompanies the forthcoming Symposion, The School of Everything.
This book contains the contributions of people who have recently moved to Athens from the Middle East, of Athenians who have lived here a long time, as well as of those who are based in Berlin but frequently visit Athens. brought together, they form a de-elitized and de-colonized remix ofknowledge. The chapters in this book are intertwined and in each part the reader will find contributions relevant to the whole. The authors are all united bytheir portrayal in anti-phrenological drawings.
In Athens, despite the invention ofthe State, streams of interlapping cultural influences never stopped pulsating. Such an experience of fluid identity demonstrates that citizenship is an outdated concept of class separation and nationalism. The devastating contradiction: human rights are only valid in the economically privileged zones. The failure to collaborate with the revolution in Syria dispels the last illusions of an occidental civilization and unveils the truth: we all live in the absolute financial dictatorship.
This publication includes several essays and statements on education. These are written by thinkers, philosophers, “activists”, and artists who are affiliated with the Avtonomi Akadimia, a disobedient grassroots university in Athens which claims education as a form of art. These texts, poems, manifestos and sketches of educational models are published in lieu ofthe abstracts for an upcoming Symposion entitled: “The School of Everything”.
We build an educational system which consists of indignant initiatives for sharing knowledge, andof proposals by thinkers who see education as key. We shift from learning to sharing. We decriminalize sharing because we would like to enjoy the pleasure of giving. We liberate ourselves from the strictures of “Homo Sapiens”, a construct imposed upon life.
We will transform the educational system of Europe. The clash of migration and education will release a Promethean fire.

Co-owners Moore and Hendricks established Backworks in SoHo in 1976, based on their mutual curatorial interest in the objects and events ofthe downtown art and performance scenes, particularly by artists associated with the Rueben Gallery, Judson Memorial Church, Happenings and Fluxus, with which they were both connected as collaborators and curators. Moore and Hendricks, each of who has written extensively about figures such as George Maciunas, Yoko Ono, Allan Kaprow and Ben Vautier, among others, have been instrumental in the development of major collections, including the Gilbert and Lila Silverman Fluxus Collection at MoMA, andthe Barbara and Peter Moore Fluxus Collection at Harvard. Backworks closed in 1983.

Politics andthe dance floor make for uneasy bedfellows, and it is this uneasiness that drives most ofthe work of Terre Thaemlitz, confronting head-on issues that are usually off limits in electronic music. Thaemlitz is a producer and DJ, also known under their monikers of DJ Sprinkles, Social Material, and K-S.H.E, among others. But they are also a writer, educator and activist of sorts, with very fluid notions of gender, switching continuously between male and female drag. Born in 1968, Terre Thaemlitz left the rigidly conservative and violently homophobic environment oftheir home state, Missouri, in the mid-1980s for New York. They became involved in the queer and transgender scenes both socially and musically at a time when house music was not a genre but simply the wide open sound of a specific social and political space. As New York’s underground queer music scenes dissolved under gentrification, Thaemlitz eventually relocated to Tokyo at the beginning ofthe ’00s. In a challenging interview with mono.kultur, Terre Thaemlitz talked about the politics of sexuality, his disillusion with the music industry, and why roller disco was so amazing. Visually, the issue is a dark affair, steeped in a dirty, gritty black. Printed on no less than six different paper stocks and juxtaposing several grids and graphic systems, it creates its own visual logic – only to disturb our most fundamental habits of reading and navigating a magazine by opening backwards, from right to left.

Independent. Contemporary. Art. 24 April – 31 May 2015. OFF-Biennale Budapest is a series of exhibitions and art events in and beyond the city of Budapest. Its concept is different from traditional biennials as we knowthem. Not affiliated with any institution, it is a voluntary collaborative initiative of artists, groups of artists, curators, art managers, gallerists and collectors. OFF-Biennale Budapest is a civil initiative, whose aim is to bring a segment of culture, contemporary art, closer to the public at large. OFF proclaims the importance of independent thinking and action, breaking away from clichés and habitual routines. It is meant to demonstrate that contemporary art can foster and catalyse this kind of activity – in other words, that contemporary art is much more than mere luxury and a source of aesthetic pleasure.

Punk was born on the East Coast in the late 1960s, later crossing the Atlantic and exploding in London and Paris. This dynamic countermovement churned out heaps of professional magazines and photocopied, hand-stapled fanzines, all expressing ideas on music, art, and current events. By creating its own press, the punk movement secured its place in the history of 20th-century culture. Featuring collages, cutouts, and handcrafted typography, Punk Press compiles the stunning graphics created bythese publications, spanning from the East Village to East London to the Left Bank. With unforgettable images of punk’s greatest bands—the Ramones, the Sex Pistols, the Clash, theDead Kennedys, Iggy Pop, and more—this is a captivating look at some of music’s most fascinating personalities and greatest talents.

We are heading into a future where our choices will be shaped – if not outright determined – by algorithms and artificial intelligence. This coming state has been labelled “the new dark age” (James Bridle, 2018).
It remains to be seen what this brings to photography, and vice versa.
One thing, however, seems clear: photography, which has already changed significantly in the 21st century, is affected by – and in some important ways is part of – this development. This issue of “Fotografija” explores how programmes, apps and AI-related technologies shape and change the discourse of photography, challenging traditional boundaries ofthe medium.
Various programmes and services – Google, Photoshop, Flickr, Snapchat, visual recognition, etc. – provide new tools to conceive image-making and think photographically. Technological interfaces not only deliver instruments for making work but can become the very logic for creating photographic series. The presented artists offer perspectives to raise questions and discuss these technological shifts. From dealing with traumatic events (Indrė Šerpytytė) and inaccessible sites (James Bridle) through technological mediation to playing with our expectations of an all-pervasive Photoshop manipulation (Erin E’Keefe). From exploring so-called smart surveillance systems (Esther Hovers) and censoring politically sensitive sites (Mishka Henner) to everyday glitches (Mantas Grigaitis). From playing with the copyrights of such collective websites as Flickr (Penelope Umbrico) to exploring the shared language of being in some ofthe most photographed places on earth (Thomas Albdorf). And from using Photoshop to create images (Aaron Hegert) to an image that is barely photographic (Zachary Dean Norman). The four essays (Kate Palmer Albers, Roksana Filipowska and Marijana Rayl, Ilaria Speri, Alise Tifentale) map out the works in broader social, historical and art contexts.
In short, the works deal with our technologized world. They talk about being in the middle of changes that few have envisioned. Being so immersed, one can feel it (almost) hurts.

So what was it like before everything went hell-bent batshit crazy? Enter Prof. Dr. of Pseudology, Anna McCarthy, with her HOW TO START A REVOLUTION book and its endless footnotes and twists and turns. She explains to usthe chronology of politics and personal occurrences through this haze of a microcosm.
HOW TO START A REVOLUTION is a multi-layered work that deals with clichés of rebelliousness. It is embedded in socio-political events from 2007 to 2015 andtheir mediated and subjective reception. It deals with rebellion in limbo, in which change seems ominent, mirroring the current political atmosphere. Geographically anchored in Munich and Bavaria, it reaches beyond the local peculiarities and relocates them into the context of historical global events. A microcosm of reoccuring people and places stand in as exemplary figures for global events in a humorous, absurd, and critical manner. Examples are documentaries such as 'Bored Rebel in Oberpfaffenhofen' or ridiculously provocative political actions in public spaces, numerous "in-flux" archives, a pathetic musical, which was first performed in 2013 at Haus der Kunst, and even a permanent installation in Tito’s ex-Bunker in the hills of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The project has been exhibited internationally, including at Nottingham Gallery for Contemporary Art, Chisenhale Gallery London, Schloss Ringenberg, Galleribox Akureyri Iceland, Goethe University Frankfurt, D-0 Ark Underground, Konjic, and at Transmission Gallery in Glasgow, amongst other locations. ...

Heft des Künstlers Brian Cotnoir, der auch der Gründer des Verlages Khepro Press ist. Er beschreibt sein Heft selbst so:
On the Mystic, Magick, Talismanic, Alchemical Practice of Zine Making is a description of alchemical practice through the making of zines. Alchemy is the art and science of bringing something to its final perfection or completion. And, being perfected, can in turn perfect. It is about making change in the world for the betterment ofthe world andthe soul. Youknow, like Marx said, “the philosophers have only interpreted the world, in various ways; the point, however, is to change it.”
"So it was evening, then it was morning: and it was the first day." How does the beginning of everything look like? That eternal energy that generated the first beginning, the early morning of all time, for Simona has to do with an explosion: the fire, linked to the Latin verb foveo and to the Greek words φῶς (phos), light. Imploded energy, the Genesis of all moments. It is with one ofthe simplest destruction tools, the Molotov bomb, that the artist opens her personal exhibition, where an explosion accompanies us on a journey that with great delicacy investigates the boundaries of human exploration, in its higher sense. That man who wants to know, measure, ennoble. How much space does the highest point ofthe Earth occupy? "I asked Silvio Mondinelli, the sixth mountaineer in the world to have climbed all fourteen ofthe eight-thousandofthe Himalayan chain, (without the help of oxygen) to recover through memory the space ofthe summit of Everest. He traced its perimeter in 1: 1 scale on a piece of paper" says Simona. This perimeter was used as a template to create a marble base, where Silvio Mondinelli’s signs and writings make that memory immortal in the most faithful way possible. In that memory, Francesco Šljiva Venturi gives life to a primordial sound that once again seeks a point of contact with the origin, through theuse of his voice and a single instrument: a shamanic drum, purpose-built by a craftsman for the performance.
He will climb "on the top of Mount Everest" to sing a variation of Ives' Unanswered Question, in the lowest possible pitch. It is the elaboration of an impossibility: to go as high as possible while going as low as possible.

Nachdem er 1968 das Cover von Janis Joplins „Cheap Thrills“ gestaltet hatte, wurde Crumb einer breiteren Öffentlichkeit bekannt und begann, neben Artworks für seine eigenen Bands, Auftrags- und Freundschaftsarbeiten für Künstler wie Bob Dylan, Chuck Berry, Frank Zappa oder Grateful Dead zu machen, interpretierte aber weiterhin Porträts und Cover alter Blues- und Jazz-Legenden wie Artie Shaw, Bo Carter oder Blind Boy Fuller in seinem charakteristisch antiquierten, satirischen Stil.

Postkarte zur Ausstellung "Catch me if you can" vom 26.01.-15.03.2024 in der ERES-Stifung München.
Die Löwin war los im vergangenen Sommer. Mit der Katastrophen-Warn-App NINA wurden in der Bevölkerung archaische Urängste vor vierbeinigen Fressfeinden wachgerufen. Gepanzertes Schwergerät pflügte durch die südlichen Wälder Berlins. Ein unscharfes Videodokument reichte, um ein Sondereinsatzkommando der Polizei ausrücken zu lassen und Jagd auf eine gefährliche »Löwin« zu machen, die dann doch nur ein Wildschwein war. Wer war hier eigentlich der oder die Gejagte?
Die Ausstellung »Catch me if you can« folgt der Fährte des menschlichen Jagdinstinkts. Wie viel von dessen Ursprünglichkeit steckt heute noch in uns? Sollte dieser etwa genetisch angelegt sein? Was ist aus den »Jägern und Sammlern« geworden, für die die Jagd bis zur neolithischen Revolution ein existenzielles Handwerk darstellte? Die digitalisierte, global vernetzte Welt mit ihren nicht zuletzt durch den Klimawandel veränderten ökologischen Systemen steht diesbezüglich vor neuen Herausforderungen. Gegenwärtige Jagdstrategien äußern sich im Natur- und Umweltschutz durch Wildtiermanagement oder kontrollierte Bejagung invasiver Arten. Sie verlagern sich aber zunehmend auch auf eine virtuelle Ebene, ein elektronisch abgestecktes Territorium zwischen trophäenorientiertem Gaming und Online-Schnäppchenjagd am Black Friday. Ein weites Jagdfeld, an das sich die künstlerischen Positionen der Schau hintersinnig und humorvoll heranpirschen.

Den Künstler als Rockstar darzustellen, fasst die Ambition dieses Luxusfanzines zusammen und scheint für den New Yorker Steve Gianakos formuliert worden zu sein, so sehr haben ihn seine natürliche Nonchalance und sein verdorbener Geschmack zum Herold der dunklen Seite der Pop-Art gemacht. Das Unterbewusstsein des Künstlers, das live an den Bildertank angeschlossen war, ließ das puritanische Amerika unter seinen 10.000 Volt Lust ausrasten. Mädchen, Mädchen, Mädchen, aber auch Biber und Pinguine bringen das Herz dieses ewigen griechischen Jungen zum Rasen, dessen Laune und grausame Schärfe keine Schandtat verschont.
Das dichte Portfolio lässt vierzig Jahre Malerei Revue passieren, die mit den unermüdlichen Fantasien des Künstlers für Fleisch und Bild beladen ist.
"Pleased to meet you. Hope you guess my name: Steve Gianakos."
Steve Gianakos
Ein Stecknadelprofil haben; den Kopf auf den Fersen; eine Schlange in der Unterhose! Die Zeichnungen, Collagen und Acrylbilder des New Yorkers Steve Gianakos (geb. 1938) könnten Sprichwörter sein, so sehr destillieren sie mit einigen dunklen Strichen ihre trivialen Wahrheiten. Ein naiver Stil im Stil von Vintage-Comics und Kinderbüchern unterstützt obszöne, komische oder grausame Sketche, die von kannibalischen Pin-up-Girls und kleinen Mädchen mit hochgeschobenen Röcken bevölkert sind. Die große amerikanische Kunst, ihre Moral und ihre metaphysischen Ambitionen bekamen einen Schlag auf den Hintern, ebenso wie der American Dream. Als große Figur der amerikanischen Pop Art ist er Teil der Sammlungen des MoMA, Guggenheim

Limited Gold Vinyl Edition of 100 vom 13.12.2019. There's not much in the world that is more exciting than a record label's album release number one. If you feel about music like we do, then youwill most probably agree. This sets a tone and foundation and we are very excited about this album being our #01. After many collaborations and work as producer, composer for famous artists, this now is ENIK's 4th official solo album and his first solo album in years. The Deepest Space of Now is a truly unique and trippy soundtrack.

"Welcome to the world of Dirk Zoete. Because that’s what his work is: a conceived universe. The way someone leaning over a table makes a plan and imagines the world. While technology takes us into several intangible dimensions with virtual reality and other applications, Zoete makes us believe the world is still flat. Everything seems to have only a front and a back. As if we still believed that the earth is just a disk, and we can fall off. Zoete’s drawings are clumsy, intermittent, naive, adventurous, simple. It’s like a child’s imagination, depicting in a heap what you otherwise cannot fit on a piece of paper." Philippe Van Cauteren. Published in occasion of his first major solo exhibition in a Belgian museum, To be determined. According to the situation, held at S.M.A.K. in Gent in 2017, this catalogue explores Dirk Zoete’s peculiar practice. Enriched by essays and texts by Philippe Van Cauteren, Stephan Berg, Koen Peeters and Ann Hoste, the book is a journey through the artist’s process—who, starting from a drawing, generates models, sculptures, architectural constructions, photos, films. An all-encompassing approach that makes the Belgian’s work outstand as a natural successor ofthe German Bauhausand Russian Constructivism, but with a more human touch. The catalogue features a wide selection of images, presenting the many different stages of transformation of a drawing into a three-dimensional piece, andthe hybrid nature ofthe exhibition set-up, a mix of a museum show and an artist’s studio, both essential characteristics of Zoete’s art."

Heft mit einem "fotografischen Alphabet" bestehend Schwarz-Weiß Bildern, die bei der Buchstabensuche als erstes Ergebnis bei Google Bildern erschienen sind.
"Nowadays the alphabet, like other cultural paradigms and communication evolutions, hosts a new series of menaings. The digital era, despite it being liked by some and not by others, has arrived and not only that, but is there to stay. The following document tries to be an object of reflection, andthe same time, a file for the posterity, as this precise digital era raises doubts about the sustainability of our culture over time that is to come, andthe intangibility of it. With this document we capture the past in order to project it into the future. Based on a series of temporary parameters (pictures uploaded in the last 24 hours) and a format (black and white photography, medium size) we extract the following pictures to create the photographic alphabet of Google Images. This confirms the initial concept; the documentation which is exhibited here never again belonged to the momentary alphabet on the 3th of December in the present year, so we manage to capture the present (already the past as you read these precise words) and we leave it physically alive in the future, making the common belief of printing as old fashioned and didgital as actual lose its sense, finding the way to make contemporary, in other words, tangible or visible today, something which doesn't exist on the web anymore."

One ofthe most well-known of Ruscha's books from his early period is Every Building on The Sunset Strip, showing a famous stretch of real estate along Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles, published in 1966. In July, 1973 he followed the same procedure while documenting Hollywood Boulevard.
Loading a continuous strip of 33 feet of Ilford FP-4 black & white 35mm film into his motor-drive Nikon F2 andthen mounting it on a tripod in the bed of a pickup truck, he drove back and forth across the 12 miles ofthe street shooting, frame-by-frame, both the north and south sides of its entire length. The negatives were developed, contact sheets were made, andthe materials were placed in storage.
Thirty years later, in 2003, a digital record of Hollywood Boulevard was created and it served as a reference guide for the traditional film/still documentary of 2004. For this shoot, the same type of camera equipment was used to re-photograph the street on 35mm color-negative film. The resulting material of both shoots — 4500 black & white and 13,000 color images — have been scanned and digitally composed into four panoramics ofthe complete 12 miles. In THEN & NOW, the original 1973 North side view is shown along the top ofthe page and juxtaposed with its 2004 version underneath. Along the bottom ofthe page, you find the original 1973 South side view shown upside down, also juxtaposed with its 2004 version. The panoramics face each other andthey are aligned.

George Maciunas was the founding member and leader ofthe most radical and experimental art movement of th 1960s: "Fluxus". Associated with artists such as Joseph Bueys and Yoko Ono, Fluxus rejected traditional systems of high art and practised a form of "anti-art" encompassing everything from photography and pavement art to poetry and drama. This biography of one ofthe key figures in the history of 20th-century art recounts in text and archive photographs the life story of this contradictory and unorthodox man. Emmett Williams provides anecdotes and impressions from former Fluxus colleagues and other friends (and enemies), to produce a portrait of this crusader, whose mission was to change the world - beginning with the world of art. Although tempered with wit and wisdom, his iconoclasm won him few friends amongst the art establishment during his lifetime, but Fluxus prevailed as an acknowledged force behind the upheavals in the art ofthe 20th century.

I had been in Cuba for almost a year studying in the Behavior Art School. One night, when my parents and I were having dinner at a tourist restaurant during one oftheir visits, I observed that most ofthe tables were occupied by couples made up of middle-aged tourists and Cuban girls. At the time (2008) the only option Cubans had to leave the country legally was to make a tourist man or woman fall in love with them and marry him or her. Love had become a kind of passport to freedom—or to the illusion of freedom, and winning someone’s heart and seducing them allowed Cubans to dream with a new life, a better—or different—life, regardless of it being real or unreal. That very day I decided to marry a Cuban man in order to understandand draw attention to what was happening in the country, that exchange of interests, that market of dreams, sex and company. My plan was to follow the same pattern. I would marry a Cuban man; I would give him the means to obtain the coveted papers and permits to leave the country in exchange of being able to use him in a work of art. I would use love to fool Cuban and Spanish bureaucracy. This is how the project Humanitarian Help was born. With that in mind, I organised a kind of public open call in which I offered to marry the Cuban man who wrote me “the most beautiful love letter in the world”, offering also to pay for the wedding expenses, his ticket to Spain and all the formalities to obtain Spanish nationality. This offer was aimed at those Cuban men who were interested in emigrating. A jury made up of three Cuban prostitutes would pick the winning letter and, therefore, my future husband. Mirroring the interested conditions that are usually applied in humanitarian aid, I required in the terms that the selected man be at my disposal for any request for the duration ofthe marriage. Once he acquired the Spanish citizenship, we divorced in accordance with the agreed terms and conditions. In the event that the work is sold, the profits will be shared out in equal parts.

Virtual Reality, Installation und Live Acts im Rahmen von FREISPIEL im Rosa Stern Space 25.05.-22.06.2022
We are happy to announce the fourth edition of FREISPIEL: a series of short-term residencies and presentations by (inter)national artists dealing with issues of cultural orders andtheir aesthetic and socio-political influences in our future-driven present. Our next guests will be Munich based artists Barbara Herold feat. Kim Twiddle LIVE with the synaesthetic challenge PARCOUR – suspend traditional patterns of perception, explore visual borderline experiences and enable a new transcendental seeing while generating surreal soundscapes! In her artistic practice, Barbara Herold explores playful systems in the threshold space ofthe real andthe digital and develops interactive AR and VR worlds that can be physically experienced in the overlapping ofthe virtual andthe real. In collaboration with e-composer Kim Twiddle, Barbara Herold developed the colour-form-music composer PARCOUR, a VR experiment on „Neues Sehen" (according to W. Benjamin). Through optical abstraction, stereoscopic overlays and interactive sound modulation, retro video game landscapes become an aesthetic sensual and new consciousness experience.
PARCOUR will be premiered at Rosa Stern Space. The VR will be graphically extended into the physical space, accessible via a gate. Kim Twiddle will realize electronic live acts and a sound installation based on sound material generated by VR users at Rosa Stern Space and other venues – PARCOUR on tour (tba)...

music by Daniel Lopatin aka Dania Shapes.
Soundsystem Pastoral was recorded by Daniel Lopatin aka Dania Shapes during the winter of 2004 using synthesizers, a first generation digital sequencer, and a freeware sound editor. It was remixed in 2006 for the release on naivsuper.
Celebrating the potential of amateurishness, decadence and romance in the realm of digital audio arts, Lopatin looks to marry the aesthetic sensibilities of experimental electronics with his allegiance to the classic 'beauty' in music. 'Glitch' is less a process for Lopatin -- rather it is an aesthetic impression which Lopatin emulates by hand. Pairing the residual effects of romantic, heart string melodies with steroidal, detailed, maximalist noise, Dania Shapes' audible bricolage is a tribute to both the beautiful andthe broken all at once.
Working with simple tools such as handheld tape recorders, retro synthesizers, and a personal computer, Lopatin creates conceptual systems and processes to create a solo music that's beautiful and inventive, with interesting textures and unexpected sonic interventions. The music has a lush, ambient quality, but an edge as well. Throughout the CD, one finds a subtle use of repetition. The pieces are formally well-conceived and never contrived. The music is clearly indebted to heroes of electronica such as Christian Fennesz, William Basinski, and Brian Eno. and it has links to classic experimentalists such as David Tudor and David Behrman. Yet Lopatin maintains a more song-based musical position that results in an accessible product that will attract fans of ambient, post-rock, and experimental music
Originalausgabe von 2011.
During the 1960s and 1970s, magazines became an important new site of artistic practice, functioning as an alternative exhibition space for the dematerialized practices of conceptual art. Artists created works expressly for these mass-produced, hand-editioned pages, using the ephemerality andthe materiality ofthe magazine to challenge the conventions of both artistic medium and gallery. In Artists’ Magazines, Gwen Allen looks at the most important ofthese magazines in their heyday (the 1960s to the 1980s) and compiles a comprehensive, illustrated directory of hundreds of others.
Among the magazines Allen examines are Aspen (1965–1971), a multimedia magazine in a box—issues included Super-8 films, flexi-disc records, critical writings, artists’ postage stamps, and collectible chapbooks, Avalanche (1970-1976), which expressed the countercultural character ofthe emerging SoHo art community through its interviews and artist-designed contributions, and Real Life (1979-1994), published by Thomas Lawson and Susan Morgan as a forum for the Pictures generation. These andthe other magazines Allen examines expressed their differences from mainstream media in both form and content: they cast their homemade, do-it-yourself quality against the slickness of an Artforum, andthey created work that defied the formalist orthodoxy ofthe day. Artists’ Magazines, featuring abundant color illustrations of magazine covers and content, offers an essential guide to a little-explored medium.
In den 1960er und 1970er Jahren wurden Zeitschriften zu einem wichtigen neuen Ort der künstlerischen Praxis und fungierten als alternativer Ausstellungsraum für die entmaterialisierten Praktiken der Konzeptkunst. Künstler schufen Werke speziell für diese massenproduzierten, von Hand herausgegebenen Seiten und nutzten die Vergänglichkeit und Materialität der Zeitschriften, um die Konventionen sowohl des künstlerischen Mediums als auch der Galerie in Frage zu stellen. In Artists' Magazines befasst sich Gwen Allen mit den wichtigsten dieser Zeitschriften in ihrer Blütezeit (1960er bis 1980er Jahre) und stellt ein umfassendes, bebildertes Verzeichnis von Hunderten weiterer Zeitschriften zusammen.
Zu den von Allen untersuchten Magazinen gehören Aspen (1965-1971), ein multimediales Magazin in einer Box - die Ausgaben enthielten Super-8-Filme, Flexi-Disc-Schallplatten, kritische Schriften, Briefmarken von Künstlern und Sammelbücher, Avalanche (1970-1976), das durch seine Interviews und von Künstlern gestalteten Beiträge den gegenkulturellen Charakter der aufstrebenden Kunstszene von SoHo zum Ausdruck brachte, und Real Life (1979-1994), das von Thomas Lawson und Susan Morgan als Forum für die Generation Pictures herausgegeben wurde. Diese und die anderen von Allen untersuchten Magazine unterschieden sich in Form und Inhalt von den Mainstream-Medien: Sie stellten ihre hausgemachte Do-it-yourself-Qualität der Glätte eines Artforums gegenüber und schufen Arbeiten, die sich der formalistischen Orthodoxie der Zeit widersetzten. Artists' Magazines, mit zahlreichen Farbabbildungen von Titelseiten und Inhalten, bietet einen unverzichtbaren Leitfaden für ein wenig erforschtes Medium.

The Bloomberg website says ofthe project:
For Comma 38, artist and publisher Arnaud Desjardin will exhibit new, old, rare, and popular books while running an active printing press in Bloomberg Space. His COMMA commission, part of an ongoing project titled The Book on Books on Artists' Books, is intended to create an active and participatory review of current and historical practice. This exhibition is about both the display of books on artists' books andthe production of a book about the books displayed. He intends to print a first edition, a book of books, a critical anthology and source book, alongside which a large range of books on artists' books will be displayed in a series of vitrines.
Artists' books have normally been sold and distributed through small networks of bookshops and galleries that often produce lists of available titles in printed form. The advent ofthe Internet has meant that information online has changed the nature of this documentary evidence. Desjardin's unique and extraordinary combination of display and production makes an exhibition that actively engages in both the making and disseminating in real time. The books themselves become both vehicles for information and documents that testify for artistic activity in its own right

Die Ausgabe ist in Kooperation mit der Stadt Wien entstanden. Bestehend aus Text, Anleitungen und dazu passenden Illustrationen soll das Buch ein Ratgeber sein, für mehr Enthusiasmus und Zufriedenheit, denn "peer-pressure and pessimism, like any other pervasive task, calls for a certain amount of effort, care and common sense".

Before studying Arts I did my Bachelor Degree in Arts and Multimedia. In my first academic studies I was confronted with most digital media and how to use them in creative, functional or artistic way. I appreciate the wide field of modern creativity tools that I got to know. But actually I felt deeper connected to handcraft because I can express myself more immediate. So I decided to go back to the roots and applied at the Academy of fine Arts in Munich. I visited my Professor with giant artworks of naked bodies and peculiar cartoons. The painting showed strong emotion, pubertal suffering and indignation. Although it became more calm inside myself, I still stand for an type of art that results out ofthe psyche. So please enjoy watching my pictural diary.

Das Werk von Erik Steinbrecher (*1963, Basel) hat sich in zwei Hauptrichtungen entwickelt: in die Bereiche Architektur und Skulptur im Zusammenschluss mit der Fotografie. Der Künstler realisiert immer mehr Projekte im öffentlichen Raum und setzt sich auch mit den Massenmedien auseinander.
Steinbrechers "Superfundi", eine Sammlung von Fotografien mit Hügeln, Gräben und Gräbern, ähnelt einem Magazin. Als zusammenhängende Bilderserie könnte "Superfundi" auf ein skurriles, geheimnisvolles Territorium verweisen, das gleichzeitig unberührt und verwüstet ist.

The artist not only realizes more and more projects in public spaces, but also takes a passionate interest in mass-media.
Steinbrecher’s “Superfundi,” a collection of photographs featuring hills, trenches, and graves, resembles a magazine. As a connected series of pictures, “Superfundi” could refer to a ludicrous, mysterious territory, pristine and devastated at the same time.

Reinhard Grüner is a collector from Monaco. His passion is art books, which he collects – and sometimes exhibits – since the 1960s.
His website, www.buchkunst.info is a real “online museum”, where international artist books are catalogued and photographed. Amongst the artists there are Marc Chagall, Anselm Kiefer, Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso andAndy Warhol. Books, but also works of art made of images and text, created bythe artist often in collaboration with a writer and a publisher. For the high artistic quality – original graphics, unique designs, paintings and collages – these works are different from theusual picture books. Their manifestations are multiple: books with graphic effects, objects-book, artist’s books, sometimes printed in offset or illustrated by works of artists.
At the centre of Grüner’s attention there are Eastern German and Eastern European books (mainly Russia, Hungary, Lithuania). many ofthese works were created in response to specific social, political and cultural issues, with unimaginable insights into the culture of modernity.
Reinhard first came in contact with the art in book form with the English Edition, printed privately, of “A Dissertation Upon Roast Pig”, printed in 1975 by Shoestring Press on paper ofthe legendary Chiswick Press: from here begins a life of a book maniac among thousands of books. As Grüner states in an essay, the acquisition of artist books is more than a simple purchase: the artist, the life as a collector and thoughts are tied together, they influence each other, and a network of contacts with other collectors begins. With nearly all the books in his collection Grüner forms a symbiotic relationship: each ofthem describes, explains, and gets to the heart of some chapters of his life.

Future Fantasteek! brings together a trichotomy of investigation. art-zines and independent publishing. artist as social commentator and drawing as a means of immediate visual communication. The series explores obdurate boundaries between journalism and authorial illustration using satire to reflect notions of ‘Britishness’. The series can be read as a sequence, from just prior to the ‘credit crunch’ through to the ‘age of austerity’. The series is independently published as a limited edition art-zine, with two issues per year. The approach is experimental, incremental and reflective focussing on both the microcosm and macrocosm of living in the UK. Visual humour is developed throughout as a vehicle for change, combining techniques such as pastiché, parody and socratic irony. Typography and images are juxtaposed to create new narrative possibilities. Language is explored using different ‘voices’ such as anecdotal, colloquial or profane. This text is then translated into drawn commentaries on etiquette, politics and advertising. The ‘anxiety ofthe individual’ is a running theme throughout the series with many reoccurring protagonists and antagonists soliloquizing their notions of ‘Das Unheimliche’. The series also explores changing technologies with regard to notions of ‘the book’ with online versions of Future Fantasteek! available via a blog and online PDF reader (issuu and .swf).

The publication Spheres is the creative documentation of a close collaboration between an artist andthe editor, graphic designer Philippe Karrer. Every issue is dedicated to a young artist andtheir work, in each case exploring character, surroundings, every-day life, inspirations and ideas using unconventional innovative formats so as to create a different, more visual approach and understanding ofthe artist and his or her work. The focus lies on what is important to the artist during the time period of working together for the publication, hereby capturing a certain essence ofthe artists work at the moment. Not only can the reader dive in to the artist‘s world, receiving little personal snippets ofthe life in and around his or her art, but also (and perhaps even more importantly) — how the artist chooses to present things in the publication gives the reader an idea of his or her whole artistic sphere.
Melanie Bonajo explores the relationship ofthe individual to its surroundings in a commodified, globalised culture. In her work, she uncovers how our ideas of identity, genre, value and such structures formed by conventions are ever shifting to feelings of uncertainty and instability. She approaches these issues by trying to newly create, to turn around overpowering views and conditions that are today so influenced by our consumer society and tries to get nearer to traits that are rooted in human nature.

In the context of a continuousand persistent spiritual quest in the field of Greek art and its history, the artist Christos Bokoros appears —through simple themes and earthy, warm materials— to win an important battle. He has silently found a subtle and significant way of stripping bare certain symbols—his own ‘signs’: a way of isolating those symbols from anything unnecessary and superfluous, andof drawing the community’s attention to them by revealing them to be purified, resurrectional and full of fire.
Through the presentation of a series of paintings entitled ‘ODOS ELEFTHERIAS’, Bokoros ventures a direct discourse ofthese ‘signs’ with buildings and streets that are adjacent to, or end up at, Lefkosia’s Green Line. Many ofthese buildings have suffered damages and decay. One could say that in their own way they constitute a second crevice near the Green Line that divides the state. It is in these fissures that the artist sets up - plants - his ‘ODOS ELEFTHERIAS’, in the hope of giving the city’s centre new fruits and joyous vibrations—in a silent and honest alliance with all the indigenous revitalizing forces
Stickers have become an essential element of contemporary street art used bythe most underground of artists. With stickers, anyone can plant their flag, gain notoriety, recognition and attain instant coverage while the action itself is inconspicuous. This book documents the best submissions from the first international sticker awards which have been established to record this constantly evolving movement.
Low-tech and prepared in advance, stickers are made from a multitude of materials and techniques from hand, photocopies, posters and wheat pastes to walls. From drainpipes and crosswalk boxes to street signs and walls, stickers can be found almost anywhere at eye level on public surfaces blending into and becoming part ofthe streets. Motifs vary from scribbles and characters to intricate figurative images, often personal logos or tags functioning as trademarks. Stickers have created a revolution in communication – proving to be effective tools in establishing dialog, inspiring reaction and feature messages that are subversive, fun andoften cryptic.
This extensive volume presents over 800 examples from around the world and includes 2 pages of award winning real stickers for the reader’s enjoyment.

From the author of Strapless and Guest of Honor, a book about a little-known road trip Andy Warhol took from New York to LA in 1963, and how that journey—andthe numerous artists and celebrities he encountered—profoundly influenced his life and art.
In 1963, up-and-coming artist Andy Warhol took a road trip across America. What began as a madcap, drug-fueled romp became a journey that took Warhol on a kaleidoscopic adventure from New York City, across the vast American heartland, all the way to Hollywood and back.
With locations ranging from a Texas panhandle truck stop to a Beverly Hills mansion, from the beaches of Santa Monica to a Photomat booth in Albuquerque, The Trip captures Warhol’s interactions with Dennis Hopper, Peter Fonda, Marcel Duchamp, Elizabeth Taylor, Elvis Presley, and Frank Sinatra. Along the way he also met rednecks, beach bums, underground filmmakers, artists, poets, socialites, and newly minted hippies, andthey each left an indelible mark on his psyche.
In The Trip, Andy Warhol’s speeding Ford Falcon is our time machine, transporting us from the last vestiges ofthe sleepy Eisenhower epoch to the true beginning ofthe explosive, exciting ’60s. Through in-depth, original research, Deborah Davis sheds new light on one ofthe most enduring figures in the art world and captures a fascinating moment in 1960s America—with Warhol at its center.

The Soviet Union was unique in its formidable and dynamic use ofthe illustrated book as a means of propaganda. Through the book, the U.S.S.R. articulated its totalitarian ideologies and expressed its absolute power in an unprecedented way—through avant-garde writing and radical artistic design that was in full flower during the 1920s and ’30s. No other country, nation, government or political system promoted itself more by attracting and employing acclaimed members ofthe avant-garde. Among them were writers like Semion Kirsanov, Vladimir Mayakovsky, Ilya Selvinsky, Sergei Tretyakov and Kornely Zelinsky. artistic designers like Gustav Klutsis, Valentina Kulagina, El Lissitzky, Sergei Senkin, Varvara Stepanova, Solomon Telingater and Nikolai Troshin. and photographers including Dmitry Debabov, Vladimir Griuntal, Boris Ignatovich, Alexander Khlebnikov, Yeleazar Langman, Alexander Rodchenko, Georgy Petrusov—not to mention many ofthe best printers and book binders. The Soviet Photobook 1920–1941 presents 160 ofthe most stunning and elaborately produced photobooks from this period and includes more than 400 additional reference illustrations. The book also provides short biographies ofthe photobook contributors, some of whom are presented here for the first time.

Mit Essays von Benjamin H.D. Buchloh und Birgit Pelzer sowie einem Text von Herman und Nicole Daled. The Brussels-based collectors Herman Daled and Nicole Daled refuse to perceive art as decoration and to, thereby, exploit it. They approach art in a fundamentally different way: Basis for their activities are their relationships and conversations with artists.
In keeping with the aim of Conceptual Art that places the intellectual content of a work above its realisation, they consider themselves not collectors but communicators and producers: They provide artists with the opportunity to also realise works outside of established market mechanisms. Their intense engagement with Conceptual Art, one ofthe most important movements in recent art history, goes far beyond usual collecting practices. This is not only apparent in the actual works, but also in the meticulously archived documents containing actions and works.
One ofthe most important influences for Herman and Nicole Daled was Marcel Broodthaers, more than 80 of his works are in their collection. Moreover, the collection holds several works by Daniel Buren, Dan Graham, On Kawara, Sol Lewitt, Niele Toroni, Lawrence Weiner, Cy Twombly and many more.

“We Are Cypriots” is a chronicle that takes us behind the scenes sharing personal histories that official histories often ignore.
Between 2015 and 2018, during the reunification talks and after they failed, the author Lisa Fuhr visited Cypriots from both communities and photographed them in their surroundings. These intimate photographs and accompanying in-depth conversations shed light on life in Cyprus today.
Travellers, Cypriots living abroad, foreigners who have chosen to settle there, and last but not least, the people of Cyprus itself just might discover in these pages something they did not expect.
This book, furthermore, is intended as a contribution to the current European-wide discussion on national identity, separatism, nationalism or unification, and reconciliation.
In his comprehensive preface, the Berlin journalist, Klaus Hillenbrand, traces the historical and contemporary, as well as the social and political developments that have so profoundly shaped this islandand Cypriots today.

A compelling visual portrait of a time, place, and subculture that raised a middle finger to modern society from the collection of Toby Mott.
Oh So Pretty: Punk in Print 1976-80 is an unrivalled collection of visually striking ephemera from Britain’s punk subculture. It presents 500 artefacts - 'zines,' gig posters, flyers, and badges - from well-known and obscure musical acts, designers, venues, and related political groups. While punk was first and foremost a music phenomenon, it reflected a DIY spirit and instantly recognizable aesthetic that was as raw and strident and irrepressible as the music. As disposable as the items in this book once were, together they tell a story about music, history, class, and art, and document a seismic shift in society and visual culture.

Das Buch erschien im Rahmen der gleichnamigen Ausstellung "Streetopia" (2012) die in der Luggage Store Gallery in San Francisco eröffnet wurde und sich gegen ein geplantes Bauprojekt und damit gegen die Gentrifizierung der Stadt richtete.
After San Francisco’s new mayor announced imminent plans to “clean up” downtown with a new corporate “dot com corridor” and arts district - featuring the new headquarters of Twitter and Burning Man - curators Erick Lyle, Chris Johanson, and Kal Spelletich brought over one hundred artists and activists together with neighbourhood residents fearing displacement to consider Utopian aspirations and to plot alternate futures for the city. Opening in May 2012 at the Luggage Store Gallery, the resulting exhibition Streetopia was a massive anti-gentrification art fair that took place in venues throughout the city. For five weeks, Streetopia featured daily free talks, performances, and skillshares while operating a free community kitchen out ofthe gallery.
This book brings together all ofthe art and ephemera from the now-infamous show - featuring work by SWOON, Barry McGee, Emory Douglas, Monica Canilao, Rigo 23, Xara Thustra, Ryder Cooley, and many more. Using the format of an exhibition catalog as a jumping off point, the book also includes essays and interviews with key participants that consider the effectiveness of Streetopia’s projects while offering a deeper rumination on the continuing search for community - and for Utopia - in today’s increasingly homogeneousand gentrified neo-liberal cities in an era of unprecedented wealth disparity.

Charley is a contemporary art publication series edited by Maurizio Cattelan, Massimiliano Gioni and Ali Subotnick. A do-it-yourself magazine, Charley is an inclusive publication relying on assimilation, rather than on selection : Charley is a machine for redistribution, a mechanism for spreading and exploiting information, rumors, and communication. Like most information, it is partial, unstable, and untrustworthy. There are no hierarchies and no favorites in Charley : it flirts equally with celebrity and failure. Charley is a multiform creature, bound to transform with each issue. Charley is a pre-digested combine, with pages assembled from catalogues, brochures, press clips, postcards, and other visuals. But what is Charley really? Charley is a new publication on emerging artists. Prominent curators, writers, artists, and other arts professionals from around the world were asked to suggest up to 10 up-and-coming artists and/or submit materials on the artists for inclusion in Charley. 400 art makers from around the globe responded, and each ofthem is represented by one page of Charley
Originally published in 1992 as a chapbook. The date ofthe edition you got, I don’t know. A few people have recently been reprinting it. Part of a larger work called POLYNOISE which is still online.

… We live a time of technology and great opportunities. Art creates new visions and interpretations of our living, though sometimes it looks like mere reinvention of subjects already present in the XIXth and XXth century.
Our intent, however, is to leave a mark and make our contribution to an authentic identification of our times. The engagement of artists is to create a cultural heritage to pass on to future generations, who will probably understand our sensibility. Alas, it is not for us to know what will remain of contemporary art….

Sarah Bodman made her first artist’s book tribute to Kurt Johannessen after Tanya Peixoto introduced her to his books at bookartbookshop.
She produced ‘An Exercise for Kurt Johannessen’ in 2010, in tribute to his book ‘Exercises’. The titles ofthe 100 short stories she wrote and buried for her exercise, have since been taken up by BookArtObject an international book arts group, founded in Australia by Sara Bowen, with 84 artists currently making a book using one of Sarah’s short story titles.
As it is now the 10th anniversary of bookartbookshop in February 2012, andthe celebrations are based on theme of: x or what is to be done? Sarah asked Kurt Johannessen if she could select a further 10 (x) exercises from his artist’s book to carry out.
The result is ‘X Exercises for Kurt Johannessen’ an image only artist’s book, published as a free download, DIY self-assembly book on 21.02.2012. The exercises can be identified through reading the texts in Kurt Johannessen’s ‘Exercises’.

"Artists' book" is a troublesome term. There seems to be no single well-understood or generally-accepted working definition. Say "artists' book" in general conversation andyou'll likely get a blank look, if not outright confusion. even with a specialized audience of bibliophiles, or art world cognoscenti, it may be necessary to clarify exactly what you mean...
Artists' Book Not Artists' Book is an exhibition co-curated by Johan Kugelberg and Jeremy Sanders. In it are about one hundred books andof course all ofthem either are, or are not, artists’ books, but whether it is even possible to say which ones fall into which category is a matter that's not entirely clear. And in any case, it's likely no two viewers would draw exactly the same conclusions.

Some artworks introduce natural phenomena such as rainbows to the gallery space. Others use reflections and shadows to play with the way we perceive and interact with the world. Many works result from the artist’s research into complex geometry, motion patterns, and his interest in colour theory. All but one ofthe works have never been seen in the UK before. ...

"Doodled is almost everything, always and everywhere. Even horses! Who knows what a great line is? A straight, clean one or a crooked, smeared one? In the picture book DOODLE, Doodle himself is talking. And we listen, look closely, and ask ourselves questions like, “When is a line an arm?” In this book, the arm is the beginning of a story. DOODLE shows kids that you can do quite a lot with just a few quick strokes. And that you should never underestimate Doodle."

The Pepsi Challenge
Oversized ‘promises’ in the form of real estate advertisements are promoting the new city along the lines of global real estate and living standards. ‘The perfect union to all you desire’ and ‘We believe luxury is best served in small quantities’ first seen along Varthur Road in Whitefield, Bangalore, caught my attention. The second one leaves a particularly ironic, tangy, protestant-flavoured impression, seen from the German point of view.
Questions emerged about the Indian caste system, the sense of community, modesty and personal goals. The design of this urbanity also reminds me of earlier journeys to the United Arab Emirates and Shanghai. The new urbanity becomes exchangeable, custom-tailored and its ‘ultra-luxurious villas’ accessible ‘for the chosen few’ ofthe Pepsi Generation.
But what happens to the majority of a city’s population and its needs, uncertain ownership and neglect of basic amenities? Can it withstandthe pressure flashed on every corner ofthe city? Do these promises affect social cohesion? ...

Consider these facts. In Italy the right to worship, without discrimination, is enshrined within the constitution. There are 1.35 million Muslims in Italy and yet, officially, only eight mosques in the whole country. One consequence is that the Muslim population have accumulated a huge number of makeshift and temporary places of worship. These are housed in a variety of buildings including lock ups, garages, shops, warehouses and old factories. This shortage of places to worship is particularly acute in north east Italy – where the photographer Nicolò Degiorgis lives – home to many anti-Islamic campaigns headed bythe right wing party Lega Nord. The dull images ofthe many and diverse buildings that house the makeshift mosques are printed on folded pages. You open up the gatefold to reveal the scenes inside the mosques, shot in full colour. The size ofthe gatherings varies, from large crowds who sometimes pray outside to a small room full to bursting, or to intimate groups of two or three Muslims. Degiorgis provides a fascinating glimpse of hidden world and leaves the conclusions about this project entirely in our own hands.
In 2014 Hidden Islam was awarded the Gold Award - Deutscher Fotobuchpreis, First Book Award - Paris Photo/Aperture Foundation and Author Book Award - Les Rencontres des Arles.

Anniversary launch Issue 21. Arts ofthe Working Class is glad to invite you on June 8 to the launch of its fourth anniversary issue AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 PAGES. Organized in collaboration with Callie’s and a.p. Starting at 6.30 PM, the event will take a tour and discuss matters of tourism and forced displacement through the words and works of its contributors. The title of both the event and our latest issue take Jules Verne’s proto sci-fi book as a starting point for our shared research. Verne, the poet and writer whose narratives took us on a journey into imaginary and inconceivable worlds, left us with an invaluable lesson– we perceive the world in its entirety only through technology, the very same technology that can only be progressive if accessible to everyone, rather than as means for individual convenience.

In the process of drawing and designing the cover a small book emerged and was meant to be published and shared with the world.
´LOVE´ is a selection of drawings on found footage photographs bythe artist Stephane Leonard and those drawings processed and edited bythe designer Martin Eichhorn. The first half ofthe book is dedicated to all the drawings andthe second half to various layout sketches and experiments for the artwork ofthe swedish band Alarma Man´s 2010 record LOVE FOREVER. The photographs display different stages within relationsships - from childhood to marriage to death. Leonard´s drawings and drawn words react and interact with the photos scratching off the obvious, exposing invisible emotional aspects ofthe scene

This survey of experimental art and design magazines published since 2000 explores the various ways in which contemporary artists and designers utilize the magazine format as an experimental space for the presentation of artworks and text. Throughout the 20th century, international avant-garde activities in the visual arts and design were often codified first in the informal context of a magazine or journal. This exhibition, drawn from the holdings ofthe MoMA Library, follows the practice into the 21st century. The works on view represent a broad array of international titles within this genre, from community-building newspapers to image-only photography magazines to conceptual design projects. The contents illustrate a diverse range of image-making, editing, design, printing, and distribution practices. There are obvious connections to the past lineage of artists’ magazines and little architecture and design magazines ofthe 20th century, as well as a clear sense ofthe application of new techniques of image-editing and printing methods. Assembled together, these contemporary magazines provide a first-hand view into these practices and represents the MoMA Library’s sustained effort to document and collect this medium.

Begleitheft zur Ausstellung "Gasworks Yaoi" vom 26.11.2010 - 23.01.2011 im Gasworks in London.
"Gasworks Yaoi" is the first solo exhibition by Spanish artist Francesc Ruiz in London. The show is the culmination of Ruiz's research in the local area, conducted during his residency at Gasworks. Inspired bythe longstanding gay establishments in Vauxhall, the artist has created a semi-fictional narrative that overemphasises the clichés around sexuality and lifestyle in the area.
For "Gasworks Yaoi", Ruiz will transform the front ofthe gallery into a bookshop specialising in yaoi comic books. Originating in Japan, this genre (translated as 'boys love') depicts male homoerotic narratives. However, unlike male-oriented gay erotica, yaoi comic books are both produced and consumed by women. The yaoi comics, featured in Ruiz's bookshop at Gasworks are allegedly produced by female amateur illustrators who portray the encounters of a group of men whose nightlives revolve around Vauxhall's sprawling gay club and bar scene. By adopting the yaoi comic format and resorting to female authorship, Ruiz distances himself from the stories and characters he depicts, allowing for the imagination to run wild, indulging in stereotypes and idealised situations. Through the comics' humour and distortion of reality Ruiz gives himself license to explore a specific subculture andthe way it sits within the wider fabric ofthe neighbourhood.
Turned into a specialised comic bookshop for women, Gasworks' space becomes an environment where sexuality, local context and its social dynamics are fictionalised and packaged into a product for consumption.

Originalausgabe erschienen bei Artists Press, Bern, 1980.
This book is the third and final version ofthe first artist’s book published in 1960 by herman de vries, who is currently the author of more than one hundred publications. The story of this book dates back to 1960. Closely associated with the Zero Group, but also drawn to the buddhist concept of emptiness, herman de vries had just produced a series of white monochromes when he self-published a twenty-page booklet in Arnhem. It had no title, its cover was blank and its pages were unprinted. It contained nothing but a short final poem celebrating, in four languages, the superabundance of white: “wit is overdaad”. In 1962, this manifesto appeared in another version, now entitled wit: two hundred blank pages, four white collages bythe artist and an introduction, itself completely blank, bythe poet J. C. van Schagen, published in arnhem in only five copies by M. J. Israel. It was followed in 1967 by a second “revised” edition, wit weiss: two hundred and fifty blank pages, pocket-sized, in five hundred copies, published by Hansjörg Mayer in Stuttgart. The only printed elements were the artist’s name, the title andthe publisher’s name on the cover, the word “introduction” andthe name of its author on the very first page and a colophon on the final page. In 1980 the Artists Press in Berne published the “third revised edition”, in a larger format and with more pages. The original title wit was translated into english and japanese and into sanskrit with a word that means “white” in the sense of bright, pure, immaculate. The title itself does not appear on the book, which remains completely blank. It is printed with the paratext on a broad strip of paper in the form of a detachable publicity strip. The inside flap contains a brief statement initially dating back to the 1962 edition, stating that this book incorporates all aspects of reality. Ofthe five thousand copies advertised, only a hundred were published. It is this last edition, the most radical, which is republished here, the only addition being the french translation ofthe statement.
On 1 april 2012, herman de vries wrote of his book, insisting on the importance ofthe final comma:
white is white
0 = 0
no name
no idea
not even emptiness,

“Lorem Ipsum Dolor Sit Amet” is the third in a series of exhibitions and publication based on a wide-reaching research about writing with the title “Possible Content for 18 Pages”. The original typewritten manuscript of Vilém Flusser’s essay “The Gesture of Writing” provides thethematic and formal-aesthetic foundation for reflecting the act of writing at the intersection of linguistic, visual, physical and spatial communication.
“To write,” says the philosopher about the basic requirements that should lead to a complete piece of writing, we need “a blank surface, for instance a white leaf of paper, an instrument which contains a matter that contrasts with the whiteness ofthe paper, the letters ofthe alphabet, the convention which gives a meaning to the letters, ‘orthography’ = correct writing, the rules which order that language, what is called ‘grammar’, an idea to be expressed in a language, and a motive to express that idea”.
Understanding the act of writing as a culturally embedded gesture, “Lorem Ipsum Dolor Sit Amet” covers artistic, literary, as well as curatorial and editorial fields of action and combines them. The book is published on the occasion ofthe eponymous performance by Lois Bartel at the Akademie der Künste in Berlin (June 11, 2016) and contains a curatorial-editorial statement by Franz Thalmair. Furthermore, the artist Michalis Pichler andthe professor for media theory and aesthetics Oliver Ruf situate the publication in an actual context of literature and criticism. The participating visual artists expandthe topic ofthe research with artistic contributions especially made for „Lorem Ipsum Dolor Sit Amet“.

2004 winner of I.D. Magazine's Design Distinction award, Absence is the third book to come out of Printed Matter’s Publishing Program for Emerging Artists, a program made possible through the generous support of New York City's Department of Cultural Affairs, TheAndy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, the Elizabeth Firestone Graham Foundation, andthe Heyday Foundation. The generosity of Whitney trustees Melva Bucksbaum and Raymond J. Learsy was instrumental to the Museum’s participation in the publication of this exciting new work.
Both a book and a sculptural object, Absence is a memorial to the twin towers ofthe World Trade Center. Yoon, an architect and designer who is currently an Assistant Professor of Architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, chose not to produce a traditional design proposal for the World Trade Center Memorial Competition. Instead she created a non-architectural, non site-specific space of remembrance: a portable personal memorial in the form of book.
At almost two pounds, Absence has a considerable physical presence, but it is in every way the ghost of a presence, and it is this ghostliness that gives it its particular emotional weight. A solid white block of thick stock cardboard pages, the book’s only "text" consists of one pinhole and two identical squares die-cut into each of its one-hundred-and-twenty pages – one for each story ofthe towers including the antenna mast. These removed elements lead the reader floor by floor through the missing buildings towards the final page where the footprint ofthe entire site ofthe World Trade Center is die-cut into a delicate lattice of absent structures. Of all ofthe proposed monuments and grand designs for the twin towers to emerge in the last two years, Absence is remarkable for its employment of an under-used strategy: restraint. The simplicity of Yoon’s materials and her use of repetition speak, without words, about unspeakable loss. Quiet, respectful, mournful, the book does not aim to represent the magnitude ofthe disaster. Instead it appeals to the vastness ofthe reader’s imagination and capacity to grieve. The human scale of her memorial operates on a personal level – it delivers the memory of lives lost into the reader’s hands. At the same time, as a scale model of a vanished architectural site, it operates on a larger cultural level by commemorating the site itself.

Onomatopee 95. 11”x17” by Elisa van Joolen is an on-going project that examines and challenges the fashion industry’s prevailing value systems and proposes new methods of production. The project began in 2013 with a series of conversations with representatives of various fashion brands including G-Star, O’Neill, gsus sindustries, Rockwell by Parra, Converse, moniquevanheist, and Nike. These companies then contributed by donating clothing and footwear in the form of samples, archival pieces and stock. A selection ofthese, complemented with pieces of second-handand no-brand clothing have undergone a process of cutting out and reconstructing to become 11”x17” Sweaters and Invert Footwear. 11”x17” creates a network. It unites different categories of clothing and different values within fashion. an eclectic mixture of mid-market, second-hand, and high-end items.

Poems by Patricia Smith, Photographs by Michael Abramson.
Bump contests and blues. Love goddesses and shake dancers. The Sexy Mamas andTheir Mack. Funky. Sexy. Music and voodoo. Every night like New Year’s Eve. This was the scene that Abramson recorded. Patricia Smith, took a look at Abramson’s photos nearly four decades later and brought his night world back to life. “These fiercely breathing visuals are a last link,” she says, “to the unpredictable, blade-edged and relentlessly funky city I once knew.” Her words and his pictures open the doors and give us a front-row (or a back-row... even better) seat to a time and place long gone. So: Watch. Listen.

Outsiders, a special exhibition of unforgettable images opening at the AGO March 2016, highlights photographers and filmmakers working in the United States from the late 1950s to the mid-1980s in a time of intense political and cultural turmoil. It's no accident that artists at the time turned to photography and film - mass media then largely "outside" the realm of mainstream art and its focus on painting and sculpture- to express a broader range of human experience. Photographs by some ofthe greatest artists ofthe period depict musicians, cross-dressers, biker gangs, protests, press conferences, and even animals, bringing to light the complex social realities andthe yearning for greater collective and individual equality. As part ofthe exhibition, the AGO will be presenting films by artists Kenneth Anger, Marie Menken, Robert Frank, Shirley Clarke, and others.

This volume byand about the sculptor and pioneer land artist Richard Long explores his work from the 1990s to the present day. Long's ability to make works of physical and intellectual beauty is unrivalled, and this new journey takes the reader around the world: to the Sahara Desert and down the Rio Grande, from coast to coast in Irelandand Spain, to Tierra del Fuego and Mongolia, and to the forests of Honshu in Japan. Some ofthe artist's sculptures were made during his walks through the world's landscapes, while others bring the material of nature - stones, boulders, driftwood, clay and mud - into a more public or sheltered environment: museums, galleries, houses, gardens. These works feed the senses, whereas the texts and photographs recording the artist's walks feed the imagination.

Lieferverzeichnis des Backworks Buchladen Januar 1977. Co-owners Moore and Hendricks established Backworks in SoHo in 1976, based on their mutual curatorial interest in the objects and events ofthe downtown art and performance scenes, particularly by artists associated with the Rueben Gallery, Judson Memorial Church, Happenings and Fluxus, with which they were both connected as collaborators and curators. Moore and Hendricks, each of who has written extensively about figures such as George Maciunas, Yoko Ono, Allan Kaprow and Ben Vautier, among others, have been instrumental in the development of major collections, including the Gilbert and Lila Silverman Fluxus Collection at MoMA, andthe Barbara and Peter Moore Fluxus Collection at Harvard.

Wordpharmacy combines the structure of language with the healing principles of various medicaments. Like pills, language is something to be consumed bythe body, and in turn it does not only affect our conceptions of things, but it also comes to designate our very corporal movability in the world. Consequently, words are not only something we consume, they are refractory entities that in turn define and consume us. Wordpharmacy can be seen as a poetical gesture endeavouring to let words work their magic from within the body itself. The Wordpharmacy is written and produced bythe danish poet Morten Søndergaard. The Wordpharmacy has be shown in several cities like Paris and London and Berlin and Bangor and Tromsø and Voss. The Wordpharmacy is translated into English by Barbara Havelandand designed by Christian Ramsø and is now available in six languages.

Patrick Hartl (*1976) is a German contemporary artist with a passion for handwriting and lettering. As of age 15, he was painting Graffiti and learning the ropes of art within the urban sphere. His graphic studies revealed a love for calligraphy and stylised writing with deep roots in the gothic script of his native Germany. Patrick Hartl connects old craftsmanship with modern street style. On closer inspection, Hartl’s seemingly monochrome works turn out to be the result of a multitude of layers of paint and a colourful diversity. His favourite canvas is a ten-years-old wall, which has been bombed, cleaned, bombed again, crashed, washed, damaged, but which always tells a new and unique story. As a master of handcrafted designs and analogue works, and one ofthe foremost urban calligraphers, Patrick Hartl has been involved in making art for more than two decades. An avid collaborator, Hartl belongs to the “CALLIGRAFFITI AMBASSADORS” and, in addition to exhibiting in traditional galleries from New York to Buenos Aires to Tokyo, and he has painted murals across Europe and beyond.

Meg Stuart’s work is not about the elegance and beauty of dance, or at least not in the conventional sense. It is about exploring the outer edges of movement, where bodies age, fail, and surrender, where individual spaces disintegrate and bleed into each other, where physical memories are exposed like open wounds. Meg Stuart’s work is located at the vanishing point where dance meets visual arts. Within just two decades, Stuart’s dance company Damaged Goods, which she founded in 1994, have produced a lengthy and diverse list of projects, ranging from countless full-length feature works to multi-disciplinary dance installations, improvisations, and films that spread far beyond thetheatre stages ofthe world, into museum spaces, film festivals or the wide open street. With mono.kultur, Meg Stuart talked about her first physical memories, the healing power of dancing andthe thrill of disorientation. Following Meg Stuart’s interest in abundance and complexity, the design discards all notions of top or bottom, left or right, with text and images set in different and ever-changing directions. A magazine as a physical object that wants to be handled and turned. Reading as a dance.

The starting point of this publication—and its eponymous exhibition held in Zurich in Spring 2017—is the conceptual encounter between English Pop art artist Richard Hamilton (1922–2011) and Swiss historian and critic of architecture Sigfried Giedion (1888–1968), famous for his landmark book "Space, Time, and Architecture," an influential history of modern architecture published in 1941.
In 1949 Richard Hamilton—then a member ofthe London-based Independent Group— realized the “Reaper” print series as a reaction to Giedion’s 1948 book “Mechanization Takes Command” in which he describes the mechanization of everyday life. Reproducing Hamilton’s complete “Reaper” series juxtaposed with selected examples of illustrations created by Giedion alongside many related illustrations, this publication brings together seven essays by renowned international scholars, all of whom question the relationships between visual arts, technology, science, and architecture. Among the many topics discussed are Hamilton’s early works and exhibition installation practice, postwar British biotechnology and architecture, “Hippie Modernism,” andthe visual strategy of Giedion’s books.
Published on the occasion ofthe exhibition "Reaper. Richard Hamilton and Sigfried Giedion" at the Graphische Sammlung ETH Zürich (May 3–June 25 2017), a cooperation between Graphische Sammlung ETH Zürich, gta exhibitions, and gta archive.

A perfomative art-piece to raise questions about the very concepts of preservation, ‘heritage’, immateriality and meaning.
Symbolic values build the conceptual frame for the research on the relationship between words and images in the digitized world, transhistorical authorship, coded connectivness, digital diversification andthe residues ofthe significant other. What remains gallery will focusthe limits of perception through the digitized perspective of non-linear history.
DIRECTORS´S NOTE
Dear Viewer, dear Reader, the following issue of what remains gallery magazine focuses the artist´s role and his work through the lense of a public imagery andthe needs of a visual culture. The series wants to sharpen the focus on different aspects of an exposure to art and its objects. The changing scenes and actions are taking place impromptu and exemplify the limits of control from an artists perspective, when a piece of art gets abandoned andthe idea of originality gets fostered. The perspectives on the scenarios are fully invented and have nothing to do with any form of reality.
Der Inhalt bezieht sich auf diverse Kunstwerke aus den Jahren 2004 bis 2015.

recorded in 2007 at the Leo Mars studio.
´Lightears´ is the long awaited debut album by Berlin duo Leo Mars. After a year of trial and error, a lot of sessions, sound collecting and analysation of possibilities a precisely crafted, yet astonishingly free floating album came to life. In times of almost infinite sounds, instruments and styles it took the duo some time to come up with the basic material, form a language andthen of course learn to speak it. Hours were spent in the studio andtheir favourite lebanese restaurant discussing the world of sound.
´Lightears´ intelligently smudges the borders between a classic drone, an underground noise, a playful improvisation and an old fashion musique concrete record. All the genres fall into place rather unpretentious with pure sound excitingly assembled to challenge ones listening habits.
It is a rather harsh production always bouncing back and forth between digital, crisp electronics and field recordings pushed way over the edge.
With minimal gear and set up Leo Mars managed to manoveur themselves somewhere inbetween a bedroom thrashing noise keyboard project and a theoratical paper score composer duo. Performing in a trance - allowing things to happen - awaken - making a conscious decision - slipping back into space
TheOffice for Anti-Propaganda was founded by Marina Naprushkina in 2007.
Started as an archive on political propaganda with the focus on Belarusthe „TheOffice for Anti-Propaganda“ drifted to a political platform. In cooperation with activists and cultural makers Office lounges and supports political campaigns, social projects, organizes protest actions, and publishes underground newspapers. The emphasis lies on projects which work outside the white cube and has social and political relevance. The 16-page newspaper-size novel illustrates the events which happened in Belarus during 2010 Presidential Elections. This is a story about the elections and, in particular, ofthe day and night of December 19, when the citizens’ peaceful demonstration against falsified elections was brutally suppressed bythe police. The novel presents two views on the developments in parallel. The first one shows how the events are interpreted bythe state regime and currently widely publicized by state-run newspapers and television. The other version was assembled from information presented by independent media, which for the most part can exist only in the Internet, i.e. blogs, oppositional websites, users’ comments, testimonies of victims and political activists.

A nuclear facility in Iran before and after an explosion, a village in Pakistan before and after a drone attack, a Cambodian river valley before and after a flood. The before-and-after image has become the tool of choice for analysing events.
Satellite photography allows us to scrutinise the impact of war or climate change, from the safe distance of orbit. But one thing is rarely captured: the event itself. All we can read is its effect on a space, and that’s where the architectural expert is required, to fill the gap with a narrative. In this groundbreaking essay, Eyal and Ines Weizman explore the history ofthe before-and-after image, from its origins in 19th-century Paris to today’s satellite surveillance. State militaries monitor usand humanitarian organisations monitor them. But who can see in higher resolution? Who controls the size ofthe pixels? Interpreting these images is never straightforward.

Sammlung von Zines aus Hongkong bezüglich der Proteste 2019/20, zusammengestellt von dem Kollektiv Zine Coop
Thanks to the artist researcher and activist Joanna Wong, I have been well informed ofthe situation in Hong Kong since the beginning ofthe movement. So when I saw the Hyperallergic article about the protest zines gathered and distributed bythe artist collective Zine Coop, I thought people in Paris should know about this. The exhibition Freedom Hi! happened in many places in the world, I welcomed it at 本 \hon\ books. To cover the cost production ofthe exhibition, I decided to make a catalogue box set of 19 zines, with an index of all them and an interview of one of ZineCoop founders Forrest Lau.
Dank der Forscherin und Aktivistin Joanna Wong bin ich über die Situation in Hongkong seit dem Beginn der Bewegung gut informiert. Als ich also den Hyperallergic-Artikel über die vom Künstlerkollektiv Zine Coop gesammelten und verteilten Protest-Zines sah, dachte ich, dass die Menschen in Paris davon wissen sollten. Die Ausstellung Freedom Hi! fand an vielen Orten der Welt statt, ich begrüßte sie bei 本 \on\ books. Um die Produktionskosten der Ausstellung zu decken, beschloss ich, einen Katalog mit 19 Zines zu erstellen, mit einem Verzeichnis aller Zines und einem Interview mit Forrest Lau, einem der Gründer von Zine Coop.
Wir leben immer noch in einer Zeit, in der die Männer dominieren! Sie suchen sogar gegenseitig nach Respekt und Bestätigung, während die Frau zum Schweigen gebracht und ins Abseits gedrängt wird. Ich möchte Sie ermutigen, die weibliche Stimme und Präsenz zu stärken und sich von den Zwängen der traditionellen Männlichkeit zu befreien.

Heft zur Ausstellung "You are my wave", 07.04.-28.05.2017, in der Lothringer13Halle.
Eine international besetzte Ausstellung mit Werken von neun Künstlern, für die Musik und Klang einen wesentlichen Teil oder eine Konstante in ihrer Arbeit darstellt.
Die Lothringer 13 Halle präsentierte in den letzten zwei Jahren bereits eine Vielzahl an musikalischen Erlebnissen, und nun entfaltet sich dieses Interesse auch in einer grossen Gruppenausstellung, die im April und Mai sicht- und hörbar ist. Das Verschränken von Visualität und Musik eröffnet einen künstlerischen Bereich, der sich stetig neu definiert und gleichzeitig in einer langen Tradition besteht. Innovation und Rückgriffe, konzeptionelle oder eher emotionale Verbindungen, flüchtige und beständige Formen und viele andere gegenläufige Praktiken sind Gegenstand der medienübergreifenden Projekte, die YOU ARE IN MY WAVE versammelt.
Music has its way, music has its waves.

Per Kirkebyand Lawrence Weiner have known each other for many years. The idea of making a collaborative work and an exhibition together already evolved in the mid eighties, but due to practical reasons the project was not realized back then. Last year during the fall, the idea returned to us in a new form, and we decided together with the artists that now was the time to make it happen. Per Kirkeby shows two brick works built directly within the gallery space. One work is a tall stele with a deep niche, a black line or a "metaphysical shadow" running vertically through it. The other piece is a monumental quadrangular block, an open/closed building or, if youwill, a hollow slightly rotten tree. This new installation is made in collaboration with Lawrence Weiner, who has contributed with texts across the inner and outer brick walls, so that words, matter and space overlap and transform the whole. Lawrence Weiner is also showing two other textbased sculptures made site specifically for the gallery space.

Ruine München is happy to presents Max Grau's first artist book ever. In his words: "I’m really happy with how the book turned out. It looks and feels pretty. It has 84 pages and contains 53.260 characters (incl. spaces). There’s 25 images spread out over six chapters (which have names of varying length). The whole thing is titled after a line from a Frank O’Hara poem that I really like (although I’m not quite sure if I »get« it). There’s footnotes and page numbers and even a topic (optimism. Sort of). The text is written in English andthe book is covered in a beautiful sleeve, designed by Maria (I think). It (the sleeve) contains a very flattering text (in German) about… uhm… me, written bythe whole RUINE gang. Every issue is numbered and since there wasn’t a ton of money (why is there never an actual ton of money?), we only printed an edition of 70."

THE BIG SLEEP—the exhibition title refers to Raymond Chandler's detective novel andthe legendary Film Noir. Sleep and death, pause, standstill, threats, ambiguity, fears—these aspects are virulent and gained astonishing topicality in 2020, as does the participation of many American artists in the exhibition. The Haus der Kunst becomes the setting for a production that plays with twilight and darkness, light and shadow. With introductory essays, artist texts and exhibition views, the catalog allows you to immerse yourself DeepLy in “THE BIG SLEEP”.

"The Apple Tree Submarine is a unique art project with which artist Oh-Seok Kwon wants to create an “Art Community”. You – as an art lover – will be involved in it. How? Learn more at the opening andthe following days ofthe project week.
Apple Tree Submarine reflects the artist’s life stages, feelings and aspirations. In a series of drawings, he captures these milestones. The drawings are to be understood as Oh-Seok Kwon’s diary. Like the submarine, the artist looks at the world from a distance. He asks himself questions about being human, being rushed in the modern world, the excesses of striving “higher and higher – more and more” andthe current insecurity. Thus, the flying submarine is like the artist’s eyes with which he permeates the world. As the title suggests, Oh-Seok Kwon has taken an apple tree on his journey through Munich and further around the world. Why? That would be too long a story at this point."

Text: The wine spilled out ofthe bottle and stained the tablecloth
Stains are the effects of a cause, the proofof circumstance, the evidence of events. Stains are made by daylight, weather and natural disasters, on surfaces that reflect, and in the danger zone.
Daylight at sunrise, the stain of daylight soaked the brick wall of my house and dripped onto the side walk. I stood outside and turned my face to the sun. My shadow trickled into the dusty gutters and stained the street behind me.
Weather During the night the rain struck the roof. The pellets of water pockmarked the muddy ground andthe swollen river entered the ocean and was stained with salt.
Natural Disasters. The stains of earthquakes in the broken stones.
Reflections ofthe gloomy tundra stain the mirror through the dusk.
Stains of War in the Danger Zone in a corner ofthe continent, on a treeless snow covered plain, armies laid down their guns. The whistling ofthe cold wind abruptly ceased. A white flag drooped in the still air andthe silence was stained with the loud breathing of soldiers

Sourcebook presents the detritusand collected imagery of a year of contemplation, frustration and ambivalence with the nature of photography. From an initial starting point ofthe typographic reference book, within its pages a myriad of situations and pictures present themselves - each at once recognisable and indecipherable.
Drawing heavily on ideas of representation andthe 'reading' of an image, the work within is open-ended, a liquid, unstable mix of ideas and images that attempt to elude the conclusive, finite nature ofthe captured image or the printed photo. Instead, Sourcebook aims to be fluid - at once a source of reference and stimulation for future creative processes, and a photographic document littered with unanswered questions, oblique strategies and glimpses of meaning.

From what started as a music blog aimed at sharing the best music acts of ‘tomorrow’, nearly 3 years on, TMRW is not only a quarterly printed lifestyle magazine, but an industry-recognised brandand voice.
As a fresh faced, naïve 21 year old, Founding Director and Editor, Joe Brine was oblivious to the potential of what he had incepted. Having made the conscious step in to the world of print, Joe adopted a simple but effective design, which would give TMRW a niche and set the magazine apart from any other on the market. The attention to detail shows exactly this. The thicker paper stock andthe smaller size made the quarterly print high quality and aesthetically pleasing, because of this the magazine is more sought after and such is looked after more by readers and shared around with friends and family. For any brand associated with TMRW it means that the reader is more inclined to notice and is more inclined to make a purchase.

The first-hand observations and individual opinions, from the past four decades, record a variety of attitudes and perceptions towards the physical reality oftheir surroundings. Created outside ofthe norms and conventions of an object-based art world, the projects in this book, mainly on estates in and around London, but also in Bath, Leeds, Milton Keynes and Oxford, highlight the realities of everyday life in both tower blocks and low-rise planned housing.

TheOffice gallery presents new works bythe Austrian artist Bernhard Hosa in his exhibition Hyperkinesia, starting on June 30, 2016.
Hosa's photo collages, objects and installations are reduced, almost minimalist in appearance andusually based on concrete themes. His starting point is the tension between the individual and a normative society. Based on an engagement with the biological view ofthe inside andofthe outside, on man as an object of scientific study and on the measurement ofthe human body, he develops his own formal language on the interface between conceptual art and an aesthetic approach. Hosa deconstructs his reflections with artistic strategies such as reproduction, variation or sequence, and practices such as dissection andthe creation of new compositions.

Bast Fooks was one of my new years resolutions for 2016. I haven’t given up smoking yet, but I did end up spending my new years eve in, printing and sewing the first Bast Fook issue. There andthen I had decided that it would be a project in 12 parts and that I would produce a book for each month of 2016. Each Bast Fook is a repository of ideas (in the form of notes, thoughts, readings and misreadings, assumptions, aphorisms, contemplations, stories, lists, observations and lost projects). Bast Fooks have evolved into a platform through which, I can organise - in a pretty disorganised way-ideas as they happen and material produced in different ways, under different circumstances, at different places and times and sometimes by totally different versions of myself. Bast Fook is an anagram of Fast Book and in a way each issue is offering a slow consumption of a fastness that often reads a lot like a facebook newsfeed, decentered, fragmented, multivoiced.

1. Ausgabe.
From one ofthe most influential artists of his generation comes a provocative, moving novella about what it means to be a creative person under today's digital regime. In the course of a gripping, headlong narrative, Price's unnamed protagonist moves in and out of contemporary non-spaces on a confounding and enigmatic quest, all the while meditating on art in the broadest sense: not simply painting and sculpture but also film, architecture, literature, and poetry. From boutique hotels and highway bridges to PC terminals andoff-ramps. from Kanye West and Jeff Koons to George Bush and Patricia Highsmith. from the playground to the internet to the mirror, Price's hybrid of fiction, essay, and memoir gets to the central questions not only of art, but of how we live now

Die Entdeckung der klassischen Moderne im aktuellen Grafikdesign
Today’s designers and illustrators are synthesizing the best elements from past eras of graphic design to create a new visual language with a reduced and rational approach. The Modernist documents this uniquely contemporary, yet timeless aesthetic that is built upon the rediscovery and seamless melding of classical type elements and collage ofthe 1950s, the geometric patterns and graphic elements ofthe 1960s and 1970s, andthe vector graphics and computer-aided montage ofthe 1990s. With its fresh perspective on the legacy of past craftsmanship and quality in outstanding current work, The Modernist expands our understanding of what modern graphic design can be.

Although the history of photography andthe history of photo and artists’ books is widely documented, collected, exhibited, and discussed, the legacy of women using photography in print is underdocumented, cursory, fragmentary and too often, inaccurate. Women were always at the forefront of innovation andthe political debate on photography, despite the harsh conditions in which they often lived and worked, but their voices andtheir historical contribution are still marginalised. As the feminist art historian Linda Nochlin asked, what are the implications of this rejection and what elements ofthese practices do we need to reevaluate? And why does it matter, beyond the historical inaccuracies? On the occasion of Paris Photo, Paper News is launching this Special Issue dedicated to women in print.

Dave the Chimp has been riding skateboards since the mid 1980’s, painting on found wood and making fanzines since the mid 1990’s, and working in the streets since 1998. He still does all these things, as well as exhibiting his art in galleries and museums world wide, working as an illustrator for a variety of clients, directing pop videos, compiling books, and curating exhibitions. Dave has exhibited alongside the leading names in the urban art scene, including Banksy, Blu, Miss Van, Swoon, Os Gemeos, Shepard Fairey, Space Invader, and Zevs. He was the first UK artist to have his own artist model shoe created by Vans, and a book of his work (Part Of Rebellion 2 – Dave the Chimp) was published by Publikat in 2009. In 2011 he built his first concrete skateable sculpture “Papa und Ich” outside ofthe Bethanien, Berlin, andthe wooden “friendship bowl” in the Awanganda Gallery, Wroclaw, Poland. He has since built the “Papa und Ich Speilplatz” skatepark in Milan, andthe “Troll Bridge Ramp” at La Condition Publique, Roubaix, France. He is currently focused on change, encouraging exploration, protest culture and positive vibrations, with his “Human Bean” characters as the medium through which to go on this adventure.
This book aims to collect and present a comprehensive overview ofthe work of Ruth Wolf-Rehfeldt. It is the result of a long and intense immersion into her archive, and intends to establish the importance of this unique artist – who did not have much recognition in the past – not only to the present day, but also to the precise political context and time to which she and her work belong. The book presents her typewritings series, all produced between the early 1970s (some ofthe earliest works are dated 1972) and 1989.
Mail Art was her way to be in contact with the world outside the GDR, otherwise impossible to reach. After the fall ofthe Berlin Wall andthe Reunification, the artist stopped producing any art: She felt her involvement was no longer “needed”.
At the beginning of 2015 we started to archive Ruth Wolf- Rehfeldt’s work, discovering little by little an enormousand fascinating body of work, composed by more classic poetry, simple typewriting texts, visual poetry, concrete poetry, and abstraction.

A reflection about the statusofthe image as a balance of forces in tension and a paradoxical act of cancellation ofthe body through its own representation. In Ion Grigorescu’s work, as in the book, the body is continually shown in different ways - from photography to film, from performance to drawing - and yet it remains absent, obscuring its own identity in an attempt to question the collective one. As it is impossible to show his art during the regime, it ends up hiding, disappearing inside the image. Instead of showing, the image conceals, because it is non-documentary and non-transmittable. it is an act of birth, a prove ofthe artist’s resistance, especially as a human being inside (or against) any geographical or historical background. In the rituals of his gestures and in the symbolism of his performances, Grigorescu finds a way to stay alive, preserving his own intellectual status while also defending the dignity of everyday life. The book traces the progression, both expansive and inclusive, of his work, which inscribes itself into the space ofthe body andofthe world. Grigorescu absorbs elements ofthe surrounding reality, showing us a continuity between art and life: his act of dissidence is not an outcry of provocation, nor is it extreme. it is an anti-aesthetic operation which uses experimentation and rough techniques to uncover the fiction of art, to denounce the artifice of representation and to affirm images as an instrument of subversive power.

Repetetive music with selfbuilt machines. Recorded live May 11 2017 Walpoden Akademie Mainz, mastered by BS & Anne-F, photo by Brandstifter.
Anne-F Jacques and Tim Olive use handmade, idiosyncratic instrumentation to produce and amplify detailed sound textures, from fine-grained to coarse. They share a tactile, lo-tech approach to improvised sound composition, manipulating diverse objects and materials in conjunction with somewhat unpredictable audio pickup/amplification systems to create a music in turns serene and agitated, pellucid and dense, fluid and gritty. Jacques uses small electric motors and Olive employs magnetic pickups; both sources are modified, manipulated and amplified. The hands-on nature oftheir instrumentation results in performances which are both sonically captivating and visually intriguing.

When I was in my early teens, I think it must have been around the age of twelve, I had this perpetual vision of living in the glistening sunlight. To be exposed to an all-embracing envelope of light. In my imagination I was standing in the midst of a ray and was embraced bythe warmth and equally blinding intensity of light.

Addenda: Just between youand me. There was no other. Who does our past belong to tonight? We understand at last. And while we slept, we vanished. The walls ofthe world fell in on us. We claimed always to abide by terms. Shattered mirrors and sliding panels. Always. Except when we choose not to. One must keep alert to all possibilities. The old Indian pearl diver clambered onto the dock, grinning and shaking the water from our body. At night we could hear our mind ticking like some cheap alarm clock. Radio broadcasts played on tribal feelings. Our voice trailed off. Truth was delay. A heavy splash followed many ripples. Food, batteries and water-purifying chemicals arrived over the week-end.

When Belgian artist Michaël Borremans first presented his paintings to the world at the tender age of 37, he immediately caused a stir in the art scene. His realistic yet mysterious figurative images subtly draw one to the centre of a question which remains permanently unspoken. Through the combination of his immaculate painting techniques, using muted tones and classic compositions, andthe puzzling scenarios that are at the heart of his work, the artist brings together both: melancholy and humour. With mono.kultur, Michaël Borremans talked about the mystery at the heart of painting and life in general, his commission for the Belgian Queen, and why he needs to wear his Sunday suit when he goes to work. The issue features a whopping 20 plates of Michaël Borremans' paintings, all printed in lifesize scale, allowing you to examine the technical mastery behind his work in breathtaking detail.

This book is the first since the early 1970s devoted to the extraordinary British Benedictine monk, scholar, translator, concrete poet and artist Dom Sylvester Houédard (1924–92). Edited by Nicola Simpson, with new essays by Gustavo Grandal Montero, Rick Poynor, David Toop and Charles Verey, Notes from the Cosmic Typewriter offers a broad and richly illustrated introduction to this major artistic andtheological figure.
Besides many of Houédard’s ‘typestracts’ – the concrete poems produced entirely with his Olivetti typewriter – this book also includes examples of his lesser-known ‘poem-objects’, a selection of key texts, as well as never-before-published performance scores. In both his spiritual views and artistic output, Houédard stands out as a model of insatiable curiosity, building around him a vast network of enlightened poets, visual artists, performers, musicians and thinkers of all faiths and walks of life.

Printed using any papers and techniques available to the band, the issues combine the cut and paste tactics of punk zines with a psychedelic affinity for color. Destroy All Monsters Magazine functions as a kind of manifesto, providing insight into the band through densely layered pages with movie imagery, kitsch, cartoons, delicate drawings, and counter-culture collages.

'say cheese', 'please laugh', 'show your smile' - this is what people usually say, when they take a private picture oftheir friends or family. These pictures normally remain in the private sphere ofthe photographer and are only shown to a selected audience. For this conceptual and experimental photo-series such private images have been forcefully appropriated: individual prints have been taken randomly from drug stores and photo developers, the pictures where selected andthen set in relation to others. The negatives ofthese images were not taken. Unlike the concept ofthe objet trouvé, where found objects and materials are the basis for creative work, the images used in this project are objets appropriés, they have been actively taken rather than found. They are documents of other peoples memories, memento mori oftheir existence, beautiful in their own right. By blurring and distorting them, the concept of remembering and forgetting, documentation and memory is questioned.

Following the example of French and British railway companies, C.P. (Portuguese Railways) built houses and social facilities between 1910-20, to support its employees andtheir families. Key projects implemented during the first quarter ofthe twentieth century included the Boneca neighbourhood, for retired railway workers, andthe Vila Verde neighbourhood, in the alignment ofthe Bairro Camões neighbourhood. The latter was built in 1926 designed by Cottinelli Telmo and Luís da Cunha. All these neighbourhoods are located in the city of Entroncamento. The city itself was created because ofthe railways. The station was the first dwelling - at the time a small tent (1862). This new venture provoked major migration from the interior of Portugal, of those who wanted to work for the Company. As a consequence, C.P. (Portuguese Railways) developed a plan, involving a series of ambitious social support structures, perhaps unique at the national level. The company built neighbourhoods for employees, a school, a supplies warehouse, an anti-tuberculosis dispensary that operated as a health centre and also encouraged the development of sporting activities. In parallel with technological evolution and development of railway activities, the workshop area was expanded, included reinforced staff training, which reached a peak when a training centre was built, that is today called FERNAVE, house in a huge building, built from scratch for these functions and which formerly housed the Instituto Superior de Transportes (Higher Transport Institute).

Christophoros Kyriakides was born in Nicosia, Cyprus in 1949. He was an architecture draughtsman and considered himself an inventor. In 1988 he self-published “Six Continents Stars Compass”, ‘an entertaining and educational’ board game. He considered the game inventive, recreative and formative for all ages and intended its global distribution. The game received no recognition from the public and now only a few copies exist.
In the board game, Kyriakides draws a journey with impossible objects, invented maps, landscapes and anagrammatic poetry with mathematical diagrams. One comes across an abstracted reflection of 80s locality, world politics, obsession with the American dream, an isolated emotional darkness but also a universal landscape. A chance encounter of Marina Xenofontos with this game catalysed a strong fascination that led to the uncovering of his archive. This publication, a part of Xenofontos’ practice-based research, brings to the fore the rich universe of Kyriakides’ personal symbolism that shecreatively harnesses as a means of an alternative, atypical handling and systematisation ofthemes and issues that she finds affinities with.

Titelergänzung: The dematerialization ofthe art object from 1966 to 1972 : a cross-reference book of information on some esthetic boundaries : consisting of a bibliography into which are inserted a fragmented text, art works, documents, interviews, and symposia, arranged chronologically and focused on so-called conceptual or information or idea art with mentions of such vaguely designated areas as minimal, antiform, systems, earth, or process art, occurring now in the Americas, Europe, England, Australia, and Asia (with occasional political overtones), edited and annotated by Lucy R. Lippard.
In Six Years Lucy R. Lippard documents the chaotic network of ideas that has been labeled conceptual art. The book is arranged as an annotated chronology into which is woven a rich collection of original documents—including texts byand taped discussions among and with the artists involved andby Lippard, who has also provided a new preface for this edition. The result is a book with the character of a lively contemporary forum that offers an invaluable record ofthe thinking ofthe artists — a historical survey and essential reference book for the period.

This third issue of our newspaper is dedicated to this year’s overwhelming number of anniversaries and its abysms. With curiosity we notice their paradoxical relationship with the present. It’s been ten years since the financial crash, but monetary values are not more balanced and speculation bubbles are bigger than ever. It’s been 50 years since LSD came into popular use, opening the doors of perception, but perception seems to be even narrower today than it was back then. It’s been 80 years since Austria’s annexation to Germany, and yet ‚The Sound of Music‘ is still remembered as a classic, sweetened depiction of resistance towards fascism’s expansion in Europe, rather than the fall of aristocracy, what it really was. It’s been 100 years since the end ofthe First World War and yet the struggle between Conservatism and Socialism has never been so prevalent. It’s been 200 years since Marx was born, and his work still remains a historical ideal rather than a reality.

1. Auflage The author discusses the impasses and shortcomings of translation, this “approximation of discourse that produces a new discourse” and he opposes the notion of displacement, a phenomenon born of globalization: if people and objects are moved, so it will for language. Using the example ofthe inffuence of advertising, information flow andthe effects of networking, Kenneth Goldsmith shows the obsolescence ofthe act of translation and reflects on the idea of movement. Movement is the new reality which tends to impose its standard upsets linguistic structures, social and political worlds, and profoundly changes our cultural practices.
Following Theory – a sum of 500 texts printed and assembled in the form of a ream of paper –, Against Translation is the second book of Kenneth Goldsmith published by Jean Boite Éditions.

Anlässlich der gleichnamigen Ausstellung von Paulo Nozolino im Museu de Arte Contemporanea de Serralves, Porto, 07.05.-10.07.2005.
Paulo Nozolino only makes black and white photographs andthey are dominated by an impossible darkness that seems impenetrable to light. The photographs were made all over the world - notably in countries ofthe Arab world - but in the majority of cases it would be difficult to attribute a specific location to them.
Photographs from Auschwitz are the decisive exception. Auschwitz appears as the absolute place and time that orientates everything else. In thirty years of a career as a photographer, Nozolino has constantly intensified his tragic vision of reality: this is visualised in pictures that originate from his own biography and travels. in pictures of men, women and children. in pictures of birth, love making and death.
This publication assembles for the first time photographs from Nozolino's different projects over the years, to form a new narrative, untold until now: the narrative of beginning and ending, and at the same time the narrative of his life's work.

Based on an observation of public, semi-public and commercial spaces in which we move in Munich today, the seminar takes a look at the regulation ofthe public space (gender construction and repression of political opinions) in different times and cultures. We will consider various counter cultural movements in their emergence in relation to the public space ofthe respective time. Why do counter cultural movements withdraw from the public space into protected spaces and imitate a form of reality in them? We will look at the development of Brazilian theater under military dictatorship in the 1960s in Brazil by examining two architectural examples. The imaginative space ofthetheater, in which the reality is put into negotiation, will be regarded in relation to the imitation ofthe public space in the Ballroom culture ofthe 1980s in New York. There people were able to perform and to imitate (gender) roles, which the society did not provide for them. These historical references are complemented by a consideration ofthe current LGBTQ+ movement in different locations worldwide andtheir relationship to the public space. What are the moments that engage counter cultural movements to move in public space to gain visibility? We will look at examples like invisible theater, artistic processions, performances, parades and manifestations.

Rage, Heal, Root, Grow is a celebration ofthe chaos and complexity of life and one person’s process of adapting to it. Johnson’s postpartum years were challenging. She was fearful of what she saw happening—that she was disappearing as her male partner was becoming more visible. She struggled to find the time and space necessary to heal her body, and to reconcile the intense inequity of a child-rearing partnership when one partner (her) was nursing. A unique postpartum tale that refuses the female body as its central character. In its place: that body’s voice, andthe bespoke flotsam of daily life.
Rage, Heal, Root, Grow was created on a shared Risograph duplicator over many months while Johnson’s child slept in a stroller nearby. She scanned and printed drawings they had made together with markers, watercolors, crayons, pencils, and lots of stamps into symphonic six-color prints. A narrative text describes her experience of raging, healing, rooting herself, and subsequently growing in a new direction.

The St Mary’s Mother and Baby Home was run bythe Bon Secours Sisters on behalf ofthe Irish State to house unmarried mothers andtheir children. The location ofthe graves of 796 infants and children who died in the Home between 1926 and 1961 is unknown, though local knowledge, the research of local historian Catherine Corless, and recent excavations point to a field near the old site ofthe Home, as well as the likelihood that some children were illegally adopted. International media attention in 2014 led to the Irish government’s Commission of Investigation into Mother and Baby Homes, which is still underway.
MOTHERBABYHOME is a 796-page ‘report’ comprising conceptual and visual poetry. An excavation of voices, the poems are composed entirely of text taken from historical archives and contemporary sources related to the Home.

Hipgnosis created some ofthe most innovative and surreal cover art ofthe 1960s, 70s, and early 80s for the biggest names ofthe eraPink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Wings, Yes, Genesis, 10cc, Peter Gabriel, Bad Company, Syd Barrett, and Black Sabbath, to name just a few. The sublime prism cover for Pink Floyds The Dark Side ofthe Moon continues to be one ofthe most pervasive images in all popular culture. Hipgnosiss highly conceptual approach and graphic appeal earned them five Grammy nominations for cover design, andthey profoundly influenced not only the history of music, but also all other creative fields from advertising to fashion.
Hipgnosis Portraits explores an endless stream of creative ideas in two sections. Part I, "Imagination," tells the story behind the artwork from germination through to the final sleeve design, supported by a wide array of archival materials. Part II, "Realization," contains beautiful and extremely photographic portraits ofthe musicians the agency counted as clients. Several ofthese images were taken but not used for projects and have remained buried in archives ever since. The book is filled with playful, abstract compositions from a remarkably prolific collective that redefined the possibilities of concept-driven art and design.

Frequently using her own body as a starting point, she has subjected herself to ordeals testing physical and psychological boundaries, as she did most famously during the 736 hour-performance The Artist Is Present, where visitors were invited during the course of her large retrospective to sit opposite Abramović. and share a silent but intense contact that often caused a highly emotional response – an act that in its very simplicity can be seen as a radical culmination of a 40 year-process of reduction and concentration.In a satisfyingly confrontational and open conversation, Marina Abramović. talked with mono.kultur about the nature of invisible energy, the many criticisms she has been facing and what cosmetic surgery has to do with art. Graphically, the issue is an exercise in friction and restraint, by setting up the three elements of text, images and subtitles on different grids and letting chance run its course. All works were selected by Marina Abramović. as personal milestones in her career.

Katalog zur Ausstellung DAS TREFFEN DREIER PUNKTE, 01.-31.07.2019, Berlin, im Rahmen von INTERIORS TO BEING.
INTERIORS TO BEING takes visitors and invited artists into an intimate encounter within the homes, gardens and streets of Berlin as well as the lives of strangers.
Text von der Webseite.
INTERIORS TO BEING spans time and space as a collective happening through the cityscape of Berlin. Six curators from Berlin have developed formats around the specifics ofthe work of a total of 51 artists and curators. The chosen formats range from traditional exhibitions, walks, salons and discussions to gatherings and performances. The project unfolds over the course ofthe month of July in six chapters that flow into one another, occasionally overlapping. INTERIORS TO BEING expands radically outwards, realizing half of its projects in Berlin’s public space. The city of Berlin is a partner of INTERIORS TO BEING as any curator or participating artists in the program would be. The cityscape functions anthropomorphically–with the city’s growth and continual change impacting the way artists move within it. INTERIORS TO BEING internalizes these changes through the framework of its community. All contributors to INTERIORS TO BEING are part ofthe extensive creative network of PICTURE BERLIN (founded in 2009, a not-for-profit artist initiated hybrid residency/art academy), which is a community made up of more than two hundred international artists and curators, two-thirds of whom are based in Berlin. The red thread running through all events is the dérive, a term devised by Situationist Guy Debord to describe an aimless wandering through different urban environments that leads to the development of a psycho-geographical awareness. This concept beautifully sums up the way INTERIORS TO BEING works as a project in the city of Berlin.

As he says himself "48 pages of drawings, each one created only for you".

Being accustomed to the freewheeling flow of information on the Internet andthe immaterial quality ofthe digital age there is a tendency to overlook the physical embodiment of data. Silvio Lorussoʼ.s work seeks to demonstrate that data has a material reality. When Google published images of its numerous data centres last year they revealed that it is a vast physical network that allows for 20 billion web pages to be indexed per day by its search engine. By creating websites which refer only to the site at which the data ofthe image you are looking at is stored Lorusso brings a transparency to the experience of being online. He also draws our attention to the implications ofthese storage sites in terms ofthe vulnerability of private documents and files andtheir hidden impact in terms of energy consumption. ʻ.Data Centers Grand Tour (This Data Belongs Here)ʼ. creates a direct connection between the physicality of data and its digital representation.

Century-old lore holds fast to the idea that a mirror is not only a reflection but a window from the facade of appearance into one's soul. For the superstitious, breaking a mirror tempts malignant forces, soul-splintering demons and seven years of bad luck. But what ofthe cracks at the edges of ancient mirrors or the spider web splintering across the screen in your pocket? We have yet to devise a reflection of ourselves that can weather time or violence. For what spills forth from cracks? What use is the time you spend looking in the mirror? For the survival of our souls we need to reflect one another and cultivate solidarity. To turn away from capitalist hegemony we must abandon our reflection and turn towards the other humans, and pull each other up through the cracks.

”Hhhh Minne, off you go, she’s coming! Thedeadline is in 5 minuties. If the Mayonnage hears that I’m only just starting. Woah my heart is catching fire. Close the curtain, yes.“ As the mayonnage approaches, the excitement grows. Without ever taking on a tangible form, her presence in Verena Buttmann‘s audio piece „Die Schlantz, die Kured, die Kon” (The Slutch, The Khored, The Quee) lies above everyday events. The mayonnage is many things: the object of fear, the last salvation, the state of oppression, the bridge to a remote world or a dreamlike projection. On her record, the artist Verena Buttmann creates a social cosmos between theatre-like staging and private space. A dialogical poem and a scenic piece of music reveal a narrative that follows a peculiar temporal dimension and linguistic logic. Verena Buttmann takes language to the edge of meaning, where its musical quality unfolds. The publication contains a 7‘ inch vinyl record, a brochure with the original text in German andthe English translation, as well as a download link.

Challenge: Mapping New Relations Between Art, War and Society
Madrid - SdA Innovation Challenge, Spring, 2025
Can you solve it?
How to Differentiate Between Art and Cognitive Warfare?
On the one hand, art is weaponized and securitized; on the other, warfare is producing new models of inescapable reality enhanced in cognitive and artificial ways. What concept of art could be separated from war? Or, if that is not even the purpose anymore, how does one distinguish weaponized art that is friendly from art that is hostile?

Wie kann man zwischen Kunst und und kognitiver Kriegsführung unterscheiden?
Auf der einen Seite wird die Kunst bewaffnet und abgesichert, auf der anderen Seite produziert die Kriegsführung neue Modelle einer unausweichlichen Realität, die auf kognitive und künstliche Weise verbessert werden. Welcher Begriff von Kunst könnte vom Krieg getrennt werden?

WTF is monochrom print? monochrom is a magazine object appearing in telephone book format, which is published bythe art/tech group ofthe same name. monochrom came into being in the mid-1990s as a fanzine for cyberculture, science, theory, cultural studies andthe archaeology of pop culture in everyday life. Its collage format is reminiscent both ofthe early DIY fanzines ofthe punk and new wave underground andofthe artist books of figures such as Dieter Roth, Martin Kippenberger and others. With a great deal of forced discontinuity, a cohesive potpourri of digital and analog subversion is pressed between the covers of monochrom. Each issue is an unnostalgic amalgam of 125 years of Western counterculture cocked, aimed and ready to fire at the present. It is a Sears catalog of subjective and objective irreconcilability -- the Godzilla version ofthe conventional coffee table book.

Zur Ausstellung vom 14.04.-26.04.2014 The exhibition presents circa 300 books in an attempt to offer an overview, and initiate an archive, of recent artists’ books. It focuses on publication as a medium and context for art practices. It looks at the ways in which artists use the format ofthe book as an artistic strategy exploiting, andoften expanding upon, its nature as a fixed but randomly accessible sequence of words and images. All the books selected are either self-published or participate in a minor economy of small publishers. Their modes of production and circulation, as well as the conditions under which they are experienced and stored, strengthen their content.

Herausgegeben von Alice Dusapin & Christophe Daviet-Thery. Beiträge von Steve Roden & Oscar Tuazon.
Allan Kaprow is considered to be the founding father ofthe Happening, of Environments and Activities: terms that he continued to redefine throughout his career. With a wide selection of images, this publication documents Kaprow's posters, a lesser-known side of his work, produced between 1953 fand 1996. Most ofthese posters were designed by Allan Kaprow and are characterized bytheir aesthetic quality, the earliest ones in particular a combination of hand-lettered text and drawings andthe later ones of photographs and typographic text in a minimalist style. More than merely advertising Happenings or Activities, these posters act as scores/tools for the participants to the Happenings and as everyday objects that blur the boundaries between art and life.

A conversation between Hito Steyerl and João Fernandes, curator ofthe exhibition, an essay by Carles Guerra and Steyerl herself, introduced us to one ofthe most relevant contemporary artists in the field of Video art. Steyerl approaches current themes in her work, for instance the impact the proliferation of images andtheuse ofthe Internet and technology have on our lives. She uses these issues as a starting point for developing, not just through her video pieces but also through writing and essays, critical work about control, surveillance and militarisation, migration, cultural globalisation, feminism and political imagery, questions she believes have the capacity to create realities.

Based on interiors seen in Architectural Digest and Ikea catalogues, the book depicts a fictional, contemporary residence mimicking current tendencies to replace photography with 3D modeling computer software producing photo realistic images. Views ofthe apartment are generated via computer algorithms with the same techniques used in the advertising industry. A reader is invited to take a tour ofthe space while a number of mysterious activities unravel before her/his eyes.

Kelli Sims' It's Michael is a collection of drawings and watercolors created bythe artist over a span of one week in March 2015. The book offers a glimpse into the artist's unique process of digesting reality. A certain urgency and rawness is evident in depicting a disorienting range of Sims' subject matters. In her works on paper, a pen or a brush cast a net extracting brief moments of clarity from the sea of daily observations, free association, dreams, andthe internet. It is the first time Kelli Sims' work is displayed in a form of a book, adding to her diverse practice ranging from video, performance to painting and sculpture.
Kelli Sims (b. 1984, Monroe, Louisiana) received her MFA from the Glasgow School of Art in 2014 after studying at the University of Louisiana andthe School ofthe Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. Recent exhibitions include Prehistoric Loom, Yada Shimin Gallery, Nagoya, Japan, Prehistoric Loom, No Toilet, Soeul, South Korea, Dear Green, ZK/U, Center for Art and Urbanistics, Berlin. How Many Shades Would an Artist Pack for Holidays?, Neoterismoi Toumazou and Aλ,áς, Nicosia, Cyprus.

"A Set of Lines, A Stack of Paper" is the second in a series of exhibitions and publication based on a wide-reaching research about writing with the title 'Possible Content for 18 Pages'. The original typewritten manuscript of Vilém Flusser's essay 'The Gesture of Writing' provides thethematic and formal-aesthetic foundation for reflecting the act of writing at the intersection of linguistic, visual, physical and spatial communication. 'To write,' says the philosopher about the basic requirements that should lead to a complete piece of writing, we need 'a blank surface, for instance a white leaf of paper, an instrument which contains a matter that contrasts with the whiteness ofthe paper, the letters ofthe alphabet, the convention which gives a meaning to the letters, 'orthography' = correct writing, the rules which order that language, what is called 'grammar', an idea to be expressed in a language, and a motive to express that idea'. Understanding the act of writing as a culturally embedded gesture, 'A Set of Lines, A Stack of Paper' covers artistic, literary, as well as curatorial and editorial fields of action and combines them. The book is published on the occasion ofthe correspondent exhibition at KARST, Plymouth (June 5 - July 5, 2015). The publication comprises an exhibition documentation with installation views and a curatorial statement. Furthermore, the author Maria Fusco situates the concept ofthe exhibition in an actual context of literature. The participating visual artists expandthe topic ofthe exhibition with artistic contributions especially made for the book.

Found, sliced and assembled, the photographic collage establishes experimental and introspective forms through the combination of familiar and obscure images. The montages from the various artists each evoke a distinct entry into surreal worlds, bound together by connected and intertwined photographs. With found objects and images, the spontaneity of discovery and combination counters the intricacy ofthe details in the works.

Peaceable Kingdom is the first book of collaborative work bythe two American artists Chris Johanson and Jo Jackson partners in life and art. All paintings feature a mix and match of both artists' styles, from Johanson's political, social themes and color patterns, to the oneiric, provocative and ambiguous side of human identity represented by Jackson's softer tones. Each painting being none like the other, and showing an incredible combination of shapes, forms, colors and ideas through a fascinating imaginary world, almost childlike.

Recto, Verso is the latest attempt to grasp the magnitude ofthe monumental archive of photograms that Robert Heinecken created during the past 40 years. In this current sampling, comprised of work from his own archive, Heinecken offers a look back at the decade ofthe 1980s, where decadence and narcissism inhabit the same space as spirituality and family values. Though the patinas ofthese color photograms speak of that generation, their revelations are contemporary in their incisiveness. In looking at the history ofthe photogram, beginning with Henry Fox Talbot’s ‘photogenic drawings’ and Man Ray’s ‘Rayographs’, Heinecken must be viewed as its most rebellious practitioner – unflinching, enigmatic and alert. Robert Heinecken’s work has been widely exhibited in the United States, Europe and Asia, and is included in many major collections, including the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago. LA County Museum of Art. andthe Center for Creative Photography, Tucson. Recto/Verso is printed in a first edition of 1,000 casebound copies, with an introduction by Rod Slemmons, Director ofthe Museum of Contemporary Photography, Chicago.

Erschienen zum Symposium im Rahmen der Ausstellung PAUSE (prelude) im Haus der Kunst München, 22.-29.07.2018, veranstaltet vom Künstlerverbund im Haus der Kunst München. The pause in the context of art is subject of this book, states of rest, of sleep, but also attitudes of inaction and refusal, of dropping out, of strike and boycott. How do beholders and producers of art deal with the ambivalence of pauses, given the importance of dynamics, activity, participation, engagement, and work? The contributions from philosophy, art history and curatorial practice treat museums, pictures and biennials as places of pause, positions such as Malevich, Duchamp, Lee Lozano, Thomas Huber. They thus create a timeline from the 19th century to the present. The book contains the lectures ofthe symposium, which accompanied the exhibition PAUSE (prelude) 2018 at Haus der Kunst, extended by an essay and installation views ofthe exhibition.

Code X brings together a selection of personal histories ofthe current ‘transforming’ and ‘expanding’ ofthe book medium with the aim to challenge the very notion of what it could be(come) in today’s complex information era. The design of Code—X within codex form represents a playful and daring twist of ink imitating pixel to render composition and design. The content is seen as a continuous scroll, cropped where screen meets paper edge. We celebrate both camps by highlighting dichotomies of edge to scroll, sequence to time and image to place.

2. Auflage. Ausstellungskatalog. Zentrum für Künstlerpublikationen, Weserburg Bremen, 30.10.2015-14.02.2016, Bremen. The mid-1960s witnessed a boom in underground and selfpublished works. Hectographs, mimeographs, andoffset printing not only allowed for the production of small, lowcost print runs but also promote a unique aesthetic: using wild mock-ups, »messianic amateurs« combined typescript aesthetics, handwriting, scribbled drawings, assemblages of collaged visuals, porn photos, snapshots, and comic
strips. The typography consciously frees itself, in parallel to a liberalization of linguistic and visual forms of expression in the name of a new »sensibility«.
This book (which appears in conjunction with an exhibition at the Weserburg in Bremen) is the first to present the underground and self-published works that came out of West Germany in such depth, while also showing the internationalcontext in which they emerged: not as an anecdotal history but as an attempt to tap into the aesthetic cosmos of a Do-It-Yourself rebellion, one that also challenges us to take a new look at the current boom in »independent publishing«, the risograph aesthetic, and so on.

Die renommierte niederländische Designerin Irma Boom ist bekannt für ihre kühne und experimentelle Herangehensweise, mit der sie die Konventionen des traditionellen Buches sowohl in Bezug auf das Design als auch auf den gedruckten Inhalt in Frage stellt. Im "Book Manifest" (das 3. Buch der Reihe) präsentiert Irma Boom ihre Vision vom Wesen, von der Bedeutung und Relevanz des Buches. Grundlage hierzu waren intensive Nachforschungen, die Irma Boom zur Entwicklung des Buches in der Bibliothek des Vatikans angestellt hat. Die dabei gewonnenen Erkenntnisse teilt sie mit einer Auswahl von mehr als 350 von ihr gestalteten Büchern, in denen sie den Kontext und die Beziehung zum traditionallen Buch ausführlich erörtert. Mit diesem 1000seitigen, reich bebilderten Buch möchte Irma Boom die neue Generation von Designern inspirieren und zum Experimentieren anregen, um die Stellung des Buches für die Zukunft zu sichern. Die Bücher von Irma Boom befinden sich in der ständigen Sammlung des MoMA in New York und in den Sondersammlungen der Universität von Amsterdam: das Irma Boom Archiv.
World renowned Dutch designer Irma Boom is known for her bold experimental approach to her projects, often challenging the convention of traditional books in both physical design and printed content. In the book "Book Manifest" (the 3rd book in the series) Irma Boom presents her vision on the essence, meaning and relevance ofthe book. The basis for this book is formed bythe in-depth research that Irma Boom carried out into the development ofthe book in the library ofthe Vatican. Theknowledge she gained about this, andthe inspiration it gave her, is shared with a selection of more than 350 books she designed, in which she extensively discusses the context and relationship with the old book. With this 1000-page, richly illustrated book, Irma Boom aims to inspire and encourage the new generation of designers to experiment, in order to ensure the book's position for the future. Boom's books in the permanent collection of MoMA in New York, and Special Collectons ofthe University of Amsterdam collect her complete oeuvre: the Irma Boom Archive.

In this type of social-cultural gatherings, thousands ofyoung adults —software developers, lovers of digital works and robots, hackers and defenders of free software, gamers and simulation fanatics, ciber-apostles and modding artists— come together to exchange archives and share their experiences, living for a week connected to each other.
For these super-users —digital natives that make computer technology a way of life and who are often classified as the new urban tribe ofthe geeks— computers are much more than just a device for work, they are an extension oftheir identity andthe digital ecosystem where they decide to live.
< YO >< YO >< YO > Sets out a journey from the plug into the computer, with the intention of portraying along the way this kind of super-user: an exaggerated reflection of our relation with technology.

Lone Wolf is a picture book whose name is derived from the provision ofthe U.S.A. Patriot act which seeks to create a legal framework that allows the government to surveil individuals not associated with any group or country who are believed to be engaged in terrorist activities. Comprised of screenshots from reality television shows depicting expressions of physical force within three sectors of american society: police, local militia, andthe U.S. military, excerpts from congressional hearings ofthe 112th and 113th congresses on the Patriot act give context to the images. The photographic images have been converted into large halftone dot compositions, which might imply an information flow—or lack of—that exposes the roots of suspicion and intolerance that culminate in statements like “see something, say something.”
"Texts from 'Let there be light,' directed by John Huston, 1946, and four congressional hearings on theUSA Patriot Act between 2009 and 2011 (111th and 112th Congress). Images from various reality television shows including Cops, Moonshiners, Sons of Guns, The Colony, American Guns and Alaska State Troopers, as well as Flickr.com"--Colophon

I was born in the Basque Country in 1978. This land has been inhabited since prehistoric times bythe Basques. This continuous presence is explained bythe context ofthe landscape, collected bythe mountains and bathed bythe Cantabric Sea, that has served as a shelter to a rooted culture and popular customs that are still alive in the 21st century.
Here, nature, history and legend come together with unusual force and create a landof myths and magic that I explore through photography. A land where nature is praised in old rites learned from our ancestors. These intangible concepts are the beginning point to create a visual imaginary which serves me to understandthe society andthe land I live in, positioning myself in my environment through photography. Trees, waves, animals and black skies build a symbolic world that I turn into a channel to reach the soul ofthe Basques, an old soul, the soul ofthe one who pursues its lost paradise.
Galerna is a tribute to the original identity of this land.

Reprint nach einer Publikation des Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester, 1979, erschienen zur posthumen Ausstellung im Kunstverein München Something other than either, von März bis August 2020. The book is composed of images and texts by Hill through which she intended to contextualize and explain her working methodology to Jill Kornblee, her New York gallerist. Untrained as an artist, Pati Hill began to use the photocopier as an artistic tool in the early 1970s, leaving behind an extensive oeuvre that oscillates between image and text. Besides this comprehensive body of xerographic work, she published four novels, a memoir, several short stories, wrote poetry, and made drawings. Instead of an exhibition catalog that would offer an interpretation of her work, this publication provides space for Hill’s own writing that interrogates and accompanies her visual work.

"This “history” came about because my friends, Sarah Dudley and Ulie Kuhle, litho printers in Berlin, were given about 100 litho stones from a former Socialist art academy in what was the D.D.R. The stones all had images on them drawn by forty years of students under the oppressive regime. I asked them to reactivate the stones and print them on Zerkall Paper 450 g/m². Most images I chose ofthe 100 were able to have life breathed into them. We had finally forty-five images. They editioned the lithographs andthen sent them to us in Walla Walla, Washington. I drew and ground and bit copper plates to go over them. I wanted a black view ofthe image and a sense of Berlin in the East as I knew it when the horrible wall was still up. The etchers who came to work with me every summer over two and a half years have coaxed the exact mood I wanted out ofthe plates." Jim Dine
"Diese "Geschichte" entstand, weil meine Freunde Sarah Dudley und Ulie Kuhle, Lithograph in Berlin, etwa 100 Lithosteine aus einer ehemaligen sozialistischen Kunstakademie in der ehemaligen DDR erhielten. Auf den Steinen befanden sich Bilder, die vierzig Jahre lang von Studenten unter dem Unterdrückungsregime gezeichnet wurden. Ich bat sie, die Steine zu reaktivieren und sie auf Zerkall-Papier 450 g/m² zu drucken. Den meisten der 100 Bilder, die ich auswählte, konnte ich Leben einhauchen. Wir hatten schließlich fünfundvierzig Bilder. Sie gaben die Lithografien in einer Auflage heraus und schickten sie dann zu uns nach Walla Walla, Washington. Ich habe gezeichnet, geschliffen und Kupferplatten gefertigt, um sie immer wieder nachzuzeichnen. Ich wollte eine schwarze Ansicht des Bildes und ein Gefühl von Berlin im Osten, wie ich es kannte, als die schreckliche Mauer noch stand. Die Ätzer, die zweieinhalb Jahre lang jeden Sommer mit mir gearbeitet haben, haben den Platten genau die Stimmung entlockt, die ich wollte." Jim Dine

We are very proud to announce our 10th release !!! and what makes it even better is that it´s a new dis.playce album! The EP is called ´Das Ende von Amerika´ (The End of America) and it´s dis.playce´s second release on naivsuper. The title refers to the book ´Amerika´ by Franz Kafka and should not be interpretated in the wrong way)
´Amerika´, also known as ´Der Verschollene´ or ´The Man Who Disappeared´, was the incomplete first novel by Franz Kafka, published posthumously in 1927. The story describes the bizarre wanderings of a sixteen-year-old European emigrant named Karl Rossmann in the United States, who was forced to go to New York to escape the scandal of his seduction by a housemaid.
Hope originates when something else is absent and holes need to be filled again. The purpose of hope is to make itself vanish again and to reach a state of mind where Utopia or the promised landof North America won´t be needed anymore.
Kafka puts his hero Karl Rossmann over and over again in situations where he is lacking something only to discover that he is lacking even more. The spiral of hope, disappointment and reproaches seems to be endless. With ´Amerika´ Kafka finishes a series of America-fiction from the 19. Century which glorified the United States as the landof boundless possibilities. For Kafka America is not the solution of our problems anymore, it is almost like a second Europe - a land where the problems stay the same.
´Das Ende von Amerika´ is one 24 minute piece published on high quality CDRs
An experimental body of work conducted over ten days that explores themes of femininity, intimacy, nudity, eroticism, beauty, and body image through self-portrait photography as a medium of expression and a creatively printed zine as its format. The visuals capture the beauty and sensuality of femininity, intertwining the author’s personal interpretation ofthe sensory experience of her body andthe sensitivity of her mind with a critique of societal perspectives over the last hundred years. These perspectives, though influenced by ethical progress, have often ridiculed and degraded the essence of femininity, reducing it to trivial, denaturalized, or even grotesque aspects. The black-and-white veil symbolizes the timelessness ofthetheme, while the zine’s format mimics a vintage erotic videotape, complete with "bonus visuals" reminiscent of retro collectible postcards. This design evokes the commodification of a natural human characteristic and critiques the enduring, market-driven objectification of femininity.
Acclaimed artist Kenneth Goldsmith’s thousand-page beautiful homage to New York City. Here is a kaleidoscopic assemblage and poetic history of New York: an unparalleled and original homage to the city, composed entirely of quotations. Drawn from a huge array of sources—histories, memoirs, newspaper articles, novels, government documents, emails—and organized into interpretive categories that reveal the philosophical architecture ofthe city, Capital is the ne plus ultra of books on the ultimate megalopolis.
It is also a book of experimental literature that transposes Walter Benjamin’s unfinished magnum opusof literary montage on the modern city, The Arcades Project, from 19th-century Paris to 20th-century New York, bringing the streets to life in categories such as “Sex,” “Commodity,” “Downtown,” “Subway,” and “Mapplethorpe.”
Capital is a book designed to fascinate and to fail—for can a megalopolis truly be written? Can a history, no matter how extensive, ever be comprehensive? Each reading of this book, andof New York, is a unique and impossible passage.
2. Auflage von 2018. In recent years, a little-known research group named Forensic Architecture began using novel research methods to undertake a series of investigations into human rights abuses. Today, the group provides crucial evidence for international courts and works with a wide range of activist groups, NGOs, Amnesty International, andthe UN.
Beyond shedding new light on human rights violations and state crimes across the globe, Forensic Architecture has also created a new form of investigative practice that bears its name. The group uses architecture as an optical device to investigate armed conflicts and environmental destruction, as well as to cross-reference a variety of evidence sources, such as new media, remote sensing, material analysis, witness testimony, and crowd-sourcing.
In Forensic Architecture, Eyal Weizman, the group’s founder, provides, for the first time, an in-depth introduction to the history, practice, assumptions, potentials, and double binds of this practice. The book includes an extensive array of images, maps, and detailed documentation that records the intricate work the group has performed.

Die zentrale Botschaft unserer neuen Publikation Plan W. lautet: Veränderung ist möglich. Just go for it!
Das neue Supplement Plan W. liegt der Süddeutschen Zeitung am Wochenende bei und macht Frauen und Unternehmen Mut und Lust darauf, die notwendigen gesellschaftlichen Veränderungen selbst voranzutreiben. Plan W. ist fokussiert auf Wirtschaft. Wirtschaft ist Leben. Plan W. ist SZ Qualität aus weiblicher Perspektive: klug, debattenstark und unterhaltsam. Geschichten, die berühren, Bilder, die in Erinnerung bleiben. Plan W. informiert, orientiert und inspiriert. In der ersten Ausgabe spüren die Autorinnen und Autoren dem Wesen der Macht nach. Und fragen, was Macht mit Menschen anstellt, welche Chancen sie eröffnen kann und wie Frauen ihr im Alltag und Berufsleben begegnen.

Das Kruzefix ist was zum Lesen. Ein Fanzine, oder nur ein ‘Zine ohne Fan, ein Heft eben. Das Kruzefix ist aber auch was zum Anhören, denn dem Zine liegt immer auch eine Vinyl-Single bei, auf die viele klasse Songs draufgepackt sind - einmal waren es sogar acht Stücke auf einer Single! Bei diesen Stücken handelt es sich zum Großteil um unveröffentlichte Songs, die teilweise auch bis heute nirgendwo anders erschienen sind. Viele Bands konnten auf den Kruzefix-Singles erstmals eins ihrer Stücke verewiglichen, manche haben sogar überhaupt keine anderen Veröffentlichungen vorzuweisen. Da das Kruzefix immer konsequent anti-kommerziell und unabhängig war und ist, ist auch die Auswahl der teilnehmenden Bands immer rein subjektiv gewesen - hier kann sich keiner “einkaufen”, es gibt keine “Teilnahmegebühr” oder “Unkostenbeteiligung”. Drauf kommt, was uns gefällt und was dazupaßt zur je-weiligen Ausgabe des Heftes. Anfangs gehörte es zum Konzept des Kruzefix, insbesonders die Münchner Punkrockszene zu unterstützen, daher sind auf den ersten Singles ausschließlich Münchner Bands zu hören. Im Laufe der Jahre und spätestens seit der Idee, die “Punk Over Munich”-Samplerreihe mit aktuellen Münchner Punkbands zu starten, erweiterte sich der Rahmen des Ganzen. Auf den jeweils zum Erscheinen des neuen Heftes stattfindenden “Kruzefix-Festivals” spielen nunmehr neben Münchner Bands auch viele gute auswärtige, teilweise sogar ausländische Gruppen. Alle unterstützen unsere Idee und unser Konzept, unser Heft und unsere vielen anderen Projekte. Viele Bands schreiben ihre Lieder eigens für die Veröffentlichung auf der Kruzefix-Single, passend zum Motto der jeweiligen Ausgabe! Nun haben wir eine kleine Auswahl der auf den Single-Beilagen erschienenen Songs getroffen, um einen CD-Sampler zusammenzustellen. Weil es immer wieder Leute gibt, die jammern, sie hätten keinen Plattenspieler mehr zuhause. Weil es schade wäre, diese wirklich tollen Stücke in Vergessenheit geraten zu lassen. Weil Musik auf CD einfach eine breitere Öffentlichkeit erreicht - ganz gleich, ob uns das als Vinyl-Liebhaber nun paßt oder nicht... Weil wir allen teilnehmenden Bands auf diese Art und Weise mal Dankeschön sagen wollten für ihre Unterstützung.

Mit einem Text von Lutz Hagestedt und Anmerkungen von Bernhard Springer zum plastic indianer no 25
GHOSTS ist die aktuelle Werkreihe Acryl auf Leinwand des Münchner Künstlers Bernhard Springer. Sie zeigt maskierte Ausschnitte von Wirklichkeit. Zeitgemäße Motive werden mit archaischen Zeichen in Verbindung gebracht und erzeugen eine Art von magischen Realismus. Die eigentümliche visuelle OberflächenWirkung der Bilder entsteht dadurch, dass Bernhard Springer für seine Malerei inzwischen fast ausschließlich nur noch Spraydosen und Lackrollen zum Auftrag seiner Acrylfarbe auf ungrundierter Leinwand verwendet. Der Titel der Werkreihe ist inspiriert durch den australischen Spielfilm GHOSTS … OFTHE CIVIL DEAD mit Nick Cave unter der Regie von John Hillcoat. Alles Weitere findet sich.
Der Werkkatalog „GHOSTS. Acrylmalerei auf Leinwand“ ist 2024 anlässlich der gleichnamigen Einzelausstellung von Bernhard Springer in der Galerie im Stammelbach-Speicher Hildesheim erschienen.
„GHOSTS. Acrylmalerei auf Leinwand“ ist Bd. 6 des Gesamtverzeichnisses von Bernhard Springer.
Erste Auflage des vierten Teils der Serie "Unmasked", der "Superhelden-Fanart"-Serie des Künstlerduos "VON WEIT HER(GEHOLT)", bestehend aus Jasmin Richter und Lisa Buskühl. Das Zine zeigt Fotos von einer Person im Spiderman-Kostüm, die durch den Ort Flecken Bovenden streift und sich dabei allen möglichen Hindernissen und Herausforderungen stellt und diese meistert.

[120] S., 20,2x20 cm, Auflage: 500, ISBN/ISSN 978-3-923205-349 Broschur, Chromolux-Umschlag. Interviews mit 54 internationalen MailArt-Künstlern. Fotografien und Fragebogen
Mit Texten von Carl Loeffler, Judith A. Hoffberg und Hal Fischer.
BLITZKUNST, Have you ever done anything illegal in order to survive as an artist ?
Ginny Lloyd porträtiert und befragt 54 internationale MailArt-Künstler.
BLITZKUNST, ein von Ginny Lloyd herausgegebener Fotoband, ist eine außergewöhnliche Auseinandersetzung mit den kreativen Pionieren unserer Gegenwart. Kern des Buches ist die Dokumentation zeitgenössischer Künstler, deren Arbeitsweise sich von dem unterscheidet, was gemeinhin als etablierte Kunst betrachtet wird. Diese internationale Dokumentation hat die Form manipulierter Portraits experimenteller Künstler der Gegenwart und enthält zugleich einen soziologisch orientierten Fragebogen, der darauf abzielt, die persönliche, innerlich-instinktive Erfahrung zeitgenössischen Kunstschaffens zu untersuchen. Die meisten der porträtierten Künstler bemühen sich einerseits darum, mit neuen Materialien zu experimentieren, andererseits sind sie von dem Wunsch bestimmt, die Funktion der Kunst in der Gesellschaft zu untersuchen. Solche Künstler arbeiten am äußersten Rand der Kunstszene, indem Sie Medien benutzen, die normalerweise nicht der bildenden Kunst zugeordnet werden. Es handelt sich unter anderem um Mail Art, Künstlerbriefmarken, Stempel, Publikationen, Kopierkunst, Performance, Video- und Audiokunst, um Archiv- und Museumsprojekte sowie um Projekte der Selbsthistorifikation.
Ginny Lloyds Arbeit ist die Reaktion auf die umfassenden Veränderungen, die die Gesellschaft international während der kommenden Jahrzehnte erleben wird - Veränderungen hervorgerufen durch neue Technologien, globale Interaktion und die Neuorientierung der Arbeiter in der folge des unvermeidlichen Niedergangs des Industrialismus im Westen. Innerhalb dieses Veränderungsprozesses werden neue Rollen und Materialien dem Künstler verfügbar werden und zu neuen Definitionen und Anwendungen der kreativen Haltung führen. (Carl Loeffler)
Ginny Lloyd zeigt hier in diesem Buch erstmals Künstler, die sich selbst kaum persönlich getroffen haben. Sie agieren weltweit durch postalische Medien und halten sich mit ihrer Person weitgehend im Hintergrund, in einigen Ländern auch im Untergrund. Ginny Lloyd hat sie besucht und auf ihre besondere Art fotografisch porträtiert und gewährt uns so einen seltenen Einblick in eine bis dahin ziemlich unbekannte Seite der aktuellen Kunst.

Bless your dress, you're out of style, you're a brainwash victim for a while (Chicks on Speed). »Chicks on Speed« sind ein Phänomen. Früh haben sie als Kunststudentinnen an der Münchner Akademie erkannt, dass dort ein althergebrachter Kunstbegriff gepflegt wird und dass eine Kunstindustrie Stars für eine Saison produziert und dann wieder vergisst und Selbstvermarktung in diesem Kontext zielführender ist als echte Qualität. Sie haben sich abgewandt und vollführen ihre subversiven Gesamtkunstwerke vor allem im Bereich der Musik. Durch die Hintertür betreten sie dann wieder die etablierte Kunstszene und schlagen sie mit ihren eigenen Waffen. Verstanden? Dieser Band verfolgt die »Chicks on Speed« anhand von zahlreichen Quellen, darunter Covers, Plakate, Texte u.v.m.

Die einzelnen Ansätze reichen dabei von subtilen Alltagsbeobachtungen über Poetisches und Abstraktes bis hin zu konstruierten und algorithmisch generierten Bildern. Themenschwerpunkte bilden Urbanität, Natur, Identitätskonstruktionen und die Hinterfragung von Realitätsentwürfen.

In dieser Bildserie setzt Kallinikou seine Recherchen über die Politik der Landschaft fort. Diesmal fotografiert er rätselhafte Landschaften in der Natur Zyperns. In den meisten dieser Landschaften kann man Höhlen erkennen, die das menschliche Element in diese Bilder einführen. Eine primitive Form der Architektur oder Tore zu einer anderen Dimension? Wir werden Zeuge von Kallinikous peripatetischer Reise und seinen Bemühungen, die Verstecke zu finden und zu fotografieren, die von der EOKA-Guerilla während des nationalen Befreiungskampfes von 1955 bis 1959 gegen die britische Herrschaft gebaut und genutzt wurden. Der Wald als heiliger Ort wird zu dem Raum, in dem Kallinikou, der sich auf ursprünglichen Pfaden bewegt, über die wahre Natur der Dinge nachdenkt.

Björns fotografische Arbeit in Can we pray for you konzentriert sich auf die Dokumentation von Menschen. Das Zitat des berühmten Fotografen. Elliot Erwitt bringt die Sache auf den Punkt:
„Es geht darum, auf das, was man sieht, zu reagieren, hoffentlich ohne Vorurteile. Bilder kann man überall finden. Es geht einfach darum, Dinge zu bemerken und sie zu ordnen. Man muss sich nur für das interessieren, was einen umgibt, und ein Interesse an der Menschheit und der menschlichen Komödie haben.“

Dear Friends, I’m sure you are also following with horror the rightwards drift and anti-EU sentiment brewing across Europe. The Dutch referendum should be the final wake-up call, alerting people to the real risk ofthe UK’s EU referendum resulting in a victory for Leave. Theofficial ‘Remain’ campaign feels lame and is lacking in passion. It also lacks an active drive to get voters registered – and with thedeadline already falling two weeks before the referendum, this should be an urgent priority. ...

Does anyone remember Plastic Bertrand? They thought he’d be unforgettable. And do you remember when the word plastic had a positive ring to it? In a scene from Mad Men a child is running around with a plastic bag over his head and his mother doesn’t bat an eyelash. It was the sixties. But even then, usage ofthe word could be confusing: plastic bomb, plastic surgery, plastic sculpture. Let us build an imaginary bridge between Henry Moore and rubbery explosives. Naturally, I’m building mine out of plastic. I can’t imagine it any other way. Plastic is the pre-manufactured utopia ofthe past. Plastic is the present.

Dyke Action Machine! (DAM!) is a two-person public art project founded in 1991 by artist Carrie Moyer and photographer Sue Schaffner. Between 1991 and 2004 DAM! blitzed the streets of New York City with public art projects that combined Madison Avenue savvy with Situationist tactics. The campaigns dissected mainstream media by inserting lesbian images into recognizably commercial contexts, revealing how lesbians are and are not depicted in American popular culture.

Rex Reason presents the Periodic Table ofthe Elements in book form. A colour-coding system is set up (black for solids, blue for liquids and yellow synthetics) but where we might expect to find hydrogen, helium or lithium we find Yul Brynner, William Hogarth and Maria Callas. The selected names relate to the chemical symbol for each element: both letters must appear in the chosen name for example, Bertolt Brecht (Br, Bromine).
A loose logic prevails in the choice of names, for example names in red, gases, are from Greek myth or history andthe yellow synthetic elements are given their proper names. However, Patterson disrupts this system with red herrings, mysteries and riddles that test the reader’s knowledge and that expose the inherent human desire to establish order and meaning

Was ist DER GREIF?
DER GREIF kuratiert Fotografien und Texte aus aller Welt. Jeder kann Arbeiten einreichen.
DER GREIF ist mobile Galerie und gleichzeitig Forum für die ausstellenden Künstler.
DER GREIF ist thematisch frei. Er lebt von der Kombination der eingesendeten Arbeiten.
DER GREIF steht einem Buch näher als einem herkömmlichen Magazin. Die Spannung der inszenierten Arbeiten wird nicht durch Werbung unterbrochen.
DER GREIF bildet und und konserviert eine zeitgenössische Vorstellung von Fotografie, Literatur und Ästhetik.
DER GREIF ist ein Experiment…
Wie funktioniert der Greif?
Fotografen und Autoren aus allen Teilen der Welt reichen über ein Upload-Formular auf der Magazin-Website bis zu 10 Arbeiten ein. Die Redaktion kuratiert die Einsendungen, kombiniert sie miteinander und stellt daraus neue Bild- und Textkompositionen zusammen. Demnach ist DER GREIF kein Portfolio-Magazin, sondern findet seinen Inhalt aus einer Fülle künstlerischer Arbeiten. Er lebt vom Vertrauen der Künstler in die sensible Kuration und Zusammenstellung durch die Redaktion des Magazins.
Warum gibt es den Greif?
Die Kuration und Gestaltung des Magazins ist ein intensiver Arbeitsprozess, die Intensität wird für den aufmerksamen Betrachter spürbar. DER GREIF ist somit ein Ruhepol in der täglichen Flut aus Bildern und Informationen. Er fordert zum genauen Betrachten, Verweilen, Nachdenken auf – er freut, schockiert, berührt, kurz: DER GREIF entfaltet sich erst voll durch die Emotionen und Gedanken der Betrachter. DER GREIF mäandert zwischen Märchenbuch, Ausstellungsraum und Reflexionsvorlage. Er steht in starker Verbindung zum Netz, bietet der Geschwindigkeit und der daraus resultierenden Oberflächlichkeit Kontra, vor allem durch einen entscheidenden Punkt: Er schafft Raum, der gefüllt werden darf mit eigenen Ideen, Perspektiven und Phantasien

I was born in Batumi, in the Republic of Georgia, and grew up on the beach. During the 90s my country went through tough moments, the separation from the Soviet Union, a civil war and a lot of darkness in the streets. All that sadness, darkness and Black sea perspectives shaped me. Photography helps me view the world from different perspectives, it makes me see things in a different way, it changed my idea of sadness and my idea of love among others.

In the 1960s and 1970s, the artist Ed Ruscha created a series of small photo-conceptual artist’s books, among them Twentysix Gas Stations, Various Small Fires, Every Building on the Sunset Strip, Thirtyfour Parking Lots, Real Estate Opportunities, and A Few Palm Trees. Featuring mundane subjects photographed prosaically, with idiosyncratically deadpan titles, these “small books” were sought after, collected, and loved by Ruscha’s fans and fellow artists. Over the past thirty years, close to 100 other small books that appropriated or paid homage to Ruscha’s have appeared throughout the world. This book collects ninety-one ofthese projects, showcasing the cover and sample layouts from each along with a description ofthe work. It also includes selections from Ruscha’s books and an appendix listing all known Ruscha book tributes.

What does it mean to publish today? In the face of a continuously changing media landscape, institutional upheavals and discursive shifts in the legal, artistic and political fields, concepts of ownership, authorship, work, accessibility and publicity are being renegotiated. The field of publishing not only stands at the intersection ofthese developments but is actively introducing new ruptures.
How the traditional publishing framework of processes, practices, institutions and discourses has been cast adrift will be discussed in the workshop through the examination of recent advancements of publishing concepts emerging from the experimental literature and art scene, where publishing and publicizing are often part of an encompassing artistic practice.

Ausstellungskatalog anlässlich der gleichnamigen Ausstellung im Museum Reina Sofia, Madrid vom 28.10.2014-09.02.2015.
This catalogue investigates the notion of “really useful knowledge” and its origins. In the 1820s and 1830s, working class organisations in the UK introduced this phrase to describe a body ofknowledge that encompassed various “unpractical” disciplines such as politics, economics and philosophy, as opposed to the “useful knowledge” proclaimed by business owners who had previously begun to invest more heavily in their companies’ progress through financing workers’ education in “applicable” disciplines like engineering, physics, chemistry and mathematics. The publication presents texts and conversations that analyse these themes, including philosophy, art, politics and technology.

Fazal Sheikh made his first trip to the holy Indian city of Vrindavan in 2003. Each year thousands of women make their way there to join the community of widows who spend their days in the temples, worshipping their god Krishna, and preparing for death. Over the next three years, Fazal Sheikh became accepted bythe widows, who agreed to sit for their portraits and talked to him about their lives. Their stories revealed how powerless some ofthe women had been under the strictures of traditional Hindu law. They were victims of enforced marriage, physical violence, sexual abuse and neglect. Some had been evicted from the family home once their children were married. Others had left oftheir own accord. As Fazal Sheikh discovered, what the women find in Vrindavan is not just religious solace, but in the sisterhood of other widows they find companionship and support. In his portraits their faces are suffused with calm – in some cases they already seem to have reached a half-life, somewhere between this world andthe next – andtheir religious faith, in many ways the source oftheir past troubles, finally brings them peace. This project was published as Moksha

A musical adaptation ofthe multifaceted, facetious, ongoing project «How to Start a Revolution» by – Anna McCarthy. It deals with the romanticization and synaesthetic manipulation tactics entailed in depictions – of revolution, rebellion and recent history acted out by an ever-same group of bored rebels. Facts are mixed with fiction, layers are built upon layers, translations occur to create scenarios that manipulate a viewer’s perception of what was and is truly real. 2-D actors and scenarios mix with 3-D action going on onstage. The «How To Start A Revolution» project has thus far manifested itself in the form of arrests, archives, films, photographs, and songs. But now it is time for the ultimate grand romantic gesture: A MUSICAL – singing, dancing, screaming, and laughing at the question ‘what time is it’? It’s a prophecy, it’s a poetic pop spectacle.

The magazine contains no text. each picture springs from an idea, often simple, and through a complex orchestration of people it becomes the materialization ofthe artists’ mental outbursts. Since the first issue, in June 2010, TOILETPAPER has created a world that displays ambiguous narratives and a troubling imagination. It combines the vernacular of commercial photography with twisted narrative tableaux and surrealistic imagery. The result is a publication that is itself a work of art, which, through its accessible form as a magazine, and through its wide distribution, challenges the limits ofthe contemporary art economy.

This award-winning contemporary art book is made completely from the perspective and language of bugs, from the front page to the final chapter, with no human writing and text, only the "writing" of bugs. Inspired bythe marks left behind by a cicada walking across his sketchbook, contemporary artist Zhu Yingchun placed boards and "ink ponds" of dark-coloured vegetable juices in his garden for the bugs to crawl through. The resulting marks, were thousands of twisted characters, each with a charm of its own - the language ofthe bugs. The accompanying booklet explains the artist's concept and QR code links the reader to a video ofthe process.
"The bugs seem insignificant, but their strokes are beautiful," says Zhu Yingchun. "Art is not just those pieces hanging on walls and placed in exhibition halls. Everything in the world, including every life in nature, has the power to create beauty, and art is all around us.

“For the third installment in our collaboration with TOILETPAPER for our advertising campaigns, we worked with Maurizio, Micol and Pierpaolo to take people on a mysterious journey to an unfamiliar world. A place where the ordinary is slightly disorted, mirrors lead to other dimensions andthe strange and beautiful coexist in singular harmony. We love that David Lynch’s (the inspiration for our collections) skewed and somewhat disruptive sense of storytelling seamlessly fits with how the TOILETPAPER approach image making andthe final results speak for themselves. Needless to say we’re delighted with the out come and hope everyone else enjoys the images as much as we do.” Carol Lim & Humberto Leon

Spanning almost three decades, 'Moonshine' is a portrait ofthe American Appalachian folk, a mythologised region populated by ‘moonshiners’. Van Manen’s images are defined by a fierce intimacy with her subject, as the viewer teeters on the edge ofthe frame, perpetually trespassing on private moments: rollicking children practicing handstands on the couch. a kneeling daughter combing the hair of her grandmother.
Van Manen first visited the region in 1985, to the Appalachian areas of Kentucky, Tennessee and West Virginia, returning periodically up until 2013 to visit mining families with whom she lived: the Boggs family with their ten red-haired sons. miners Mavis and Junior. The intergenerational images subtly trace the insidious changes undergone by Appalachia – the slow and steady demise ofthe mining industry, andthe migration of inhabitants from ramshackle wooden cabins to the city, or urban trailer parks. Van Manen intermixes black-and-white images with later colour work – another register of time passing andthe inevitability of change.

"This is not the document of Ray Johnson wall art. It's not about his famous collages or what remains in museums and for sale in galleries. It's an issue about the atmosphere of Ray Johnson - the element, the ambient specifics of who he was and what he did. Years in the making, it's an homage to the Ray Johnson who made communication, letter writing, and otherwise unlikely creative gestures his art. It's about Ray's correspondences seen and not seen, sent or otherwise, and his notions ofthe world that he caused to flow between islands of friends, acquaintances and strangers."
Charlton Burch, Editor
Excerpt from the editor's letter
„Dies ist nicht das Dokument der Wandmalerei von Ray Johnson. Es geht nicht um seine berühmten Collagen oder um das, was in Museen und Galerien zum Verkauf steht. Es geht um die Atmosphäre von Ray Johnson - das Element, die Besonderheiten der Umgebung, wer er war und was er tat. Es ist eine Hommage an den Ray Johnson, der Kommunikation, Briefeschreiben und andere unwahrscheinliche kreative Gesten zu seiner Kunst machte. Es geht um Rays gesehene und ungesehene, gesendete oder nicht gesendete Korrespondenzen und seine Vorstellungen von der Welt, die er zwischen Inseln von Freunden, Bekannten und Fremden fließen ließ.“

Patti Smith: Camera Solo, on view at the Wadsworth Atheneum from 21.10.2011-19.02.2012, was the first museum exhibition of Patti Smith’s photography in the United States and included seventy photographs, one multimedia installation, and one video work. The pioneering artist, musician, and poet, Smith has made her mark on the American cultural landscape throughout her 40-year career, from her earliest explorations of artistic expression with friend and vanguard photographer Robert Mapplethorpe in the 1960s and 70s to her profound influence on the nascent punk rock scene in the late 1970s and 80s.

A true gift is intimate. It is a carrier of meaning that involves the capacity to amuse, delight, and identify empathically with our recipient’s desires. This exceptional book by New York-based conceptual artist Barbara Bloom, entitled Gifts, explores the nature of gifts in relation to aspects such as wrapping, covering and uncovering, pleasure, and generosity.
A passionate collector of ornamental paper from all over the world, Bloom has studied the history and aesthetics of gift-wrapping in detail. In Gifts, she tries to blur the conventional distinction between art and life, whilst offering new insights on notions of concealment and revelation. ‘Can the box be an artwork? Can the wrapping be the gift?’ – she questions her readers.

Best known for his series on clandestine military bases and spy satellites, Trevor Paglen’s practice reaches far beyond museum walls. Instead, it encompasses a variety of disciplines. from image-making and installations to investigative journalism, writing, engineering, geography, and sound design. Along the way, Paglen challenges our traditional notions of fine art. He has published a number of books on the functioning oftheUS intelligence services, installed a series of Autonomy Cubes that allow access to the entirely anonymous Tor network, and is currently working on his own satellite to be launched into space in summer 2018. In a sweeping conversation with mono.kultur, Trevor Paglen talked about the volatility of truth, the dilemmas ofthe Anthropocene, and why Artificial Intelligence will not outlast humanity. True to its precious content, the issue comes in a Static Shielding Bag normally used for sensitive electronic products. In loose reference to computer coding as well as archival documents, it contains a main booklet with the text and excerpts from Paglen’s current cycle on machine vision, as well as six ‘attachments’ covering seminal projects from his career to date.

Erscheint anlässlich der Ausstellung "Daniel Buren, Le Musée qui 'existait pas", Centre Pompidou, 26.06.-23.09.2002.
Daniel Buren ist einer der wichtigsten französischen Künstler mit einer großen internationalen Wahrnehmung, seit 40 Jahren befragt er die Kunst und die Möglichkeiten, sie »in situ«, also vor Ort, zu entwickeln. Der Bildhauer und Maler mit starken Bezügen auf die Konzeptkunst richtete 2002 im Centre Pompidou in Paris eine spektakuläre Ausstellung ein. Die Publikation versammelt die Bilder zu der Ausstellung, die den gesamten Gebäudekomplex mit einbezog. Seine Installationen zerstörte er unmittelbar nach Ablauf der Ausstellung, der Katalog ist, was erhalten blieb. Aber er bildet nicht allein denn Rundgang ab, sondern dokumentiert auch Burens Vorarbeiten wie Skizzen, seien Ideen, die Pläne und Grundrisse des Baus. Die ungewöhnliche Herangehensweise und die kühne Umsetzung der Ideendes Künstlers treten deutlich hervor.
A seminal exhibition bythe artist Daniel Buren at the Centre Pompidou in Paris is recreated through photographs ofthe since-destroyed pieces and illuminating reflections bythe exhibition s curator. Since the late 1960s Daniel Buren has been challenging the traditional methods of presenting art through museums and galleries. Through his conceptual works Buren audaciously argues that the art and its viewing environment are both inextricable and antithetical. This beautiful volume takes readers on a tour of a spectacular exhibition at the Centre Pompidou in Paris. The photographs depict Buren s employment ofthe museum as a whole. The pieces, which he destroyed immediately after the exhibition closed, included hundreds of open cubes, mirrors, banners, and even a car park. Also featured are fascinating, behind-the-scenes accounts ofthe installation bythe curator, Buren s own pre-exhibition sketches, ideas, andfloor plans, and perceptive essays that capture the significance of Buren s daring achievement.

During a semester abroad in Athens he played sound collages, live improvisations and discussions with his friends in the self-organised exhibition space Circuits and Currents via the radio station CircuitsOnAir.

Infoheft zur Ausstellung in der Tate Modern, London, 17.10.2019-09.02.2020. The visionary artist who embraced mass media and new technology.
Nam June Paik’s experimental, innovative, yet playful work has had a profound influence on today’s art and culture. He pioneered theuse of TV and video in art and coined the phrase electronic superhighway to predict the future of communication in the internet age.
This major exhibition is a mesmerising riot of sights and sounds. It brings together over 200 works from throughout his five-decade career – from robots made from old TV screens, to his innovative video works and all-encompassing room-sized installations such as the dazzling Sistine Chapel 1993....

Werbekarten zum Buch “We Are Cypriots”, a chronicle that takes us behind the scenes sharing personal histories that official histories often ignore.
Between 2015 and 2018, during the reunification talks and after they failed, the author Lisa Fuhr visited Cypriots from both communities and photographed them in their surroundings. These intimate photographs and accompanying in-depth conversations shed light on life in Cyprus today.
Travellers, Cypriots living abroad, foreigners who have chosen to settle there, and last but not least, the people of Cyprus itself just might discover in these pages something they did not expect.

Learn more about the history ofthe movement in a retrospective at Winter Park's CFAM. Zur Ausstellung Pushing the Envelope im Rollins College's Cornell Museum, Mail Art aus den Archiven Amerikanischer Kunst, Smithsonian Institution.
Pushing the Envelope is curated by Miriam Kienle, an assistant professor of art history at the University of Kentucky, with the help of some of her intrepid students, with materials sourced from the Smithsonian's extensive holdings. The exhibition has been displayed at the Smithsonian Institute of American Art and other museums, and arrives at Rollins College at an oddly appropriate time. The New Yorker recently opined that "mail art, which requires neither exhibition space nor Zoom conferencing, is poised for a comeback" — and we agree. During a time when social interactions for most ofus are fewer and farther between, taking a peep at the ol' mailbox or getting a package on the doorstep is often the day's highlight. The exhibition's exploration of mail artists' unique ways of creation, collaboration and connection are energizing and inspiring in the present now. ...

Büchlein des japanischen Künstlers Sayo Senoo, bestehend aus verfremdeten Bildern, die der Künstler von japanischen Sex-Business-Webseiten heruntergeladen hat. Auflage von 100, die alle nummeriert und signiert sind.
"Bodies that shed tears 3" is a sequel to "Bodies that shed tears" and "Tachinbo". This little book is made from my collection of photos downloaded from various sex related business websites in Japan. I worked in this kind of company to pay for my art studies. These jobs are mentally and physically heavy. But the high pay prevents most ofus from quitting before their health is damaged. The images are transformed through several processes using inkjet printers to make visible these physical and mental damages, the fatigues andthe pains, that hide behind the seductive poses and smiles ofthe people in the photos. The book is printed on an incompatible paper with my printer, so that the images are ephemeral and fragile like as our body.

In the wake ofthe worldwide glorification of Barcelona via the 1992 Olympics Games, a group of publishers felt that it was time to revive the creative and critical spirit at a cultural level, in the form of a magazine, in order to demonstrate the prevailing level of creativity - via manifestos and works without intermediaries. As a result, Vicenc Altaió, Claret Serrahima, Manel Guerrero, Joaquim Pibernat and Manel Sala launched the magazine, Cave Canis, (which literally means "beware ofthe dogs") in Barcelona, in 1996.
Starting with its first edition the magazine announced that it would have a short-lived existence - only 9 issues were published, each corresponding to one letter ofthe publication’s name. The magazine was constituted by a cardboard box, designed by Claret Serrahima, a manifesto, an artist’s book and sometimes contained CDs with recordings and other artistic objects, all associated with the same monographic topic. Each issue had a letter on the front cover designed by an artist. Cave Canis wasn’t available in theusual retail outlets. Each issue was presented in an unusual place in the city, where the manifesto was read, copies were distributed andthe magazine then disappeared from sight. The last issue was published in 1999.

"A musical adaptation ofthe multifaceted, facetious, ongoing project «How to Start a Revolution» by – Anna McCarthy. It deals with the romanticization and synaesthetic manipulation tactics entailed in depictions – of revolution, rebellion and recent history acted out by an ever-same group of bored rebels. Facts are mixed with fiction, layers are built upon layers, translations occur to create scenarios that manipulate a viewer’s perception of what was and is truly real. 2-D actors and scenarios mix with 3-D action going on onstage. The «How To Start A Revolution» project has thus far manifested itself in the form of arrests, archives, films, photographs, and songs. But now it is time for the ultimate grand romantic gesture: A MUSICAL – singing, dancing, screaming, and laughing at the question ‘what time is it’? It’s a prophecy, it’s a poetic pop spectacle."

Um das vielschichtige Genre des Künstlerbuchs einer breiteren Öffentlichkeit näherzubringen, hat das MAK Wien in Kooperation mit dem UPM Prag und dem MGLC Ljubljana das EU-geförderte Projekt "Artists' Books on Tour. Artist Competition and Mobile Museum" initiiert. Im Rahmen des damit verbundenen europaweiten Wettbewerbs wurden Künstler dazu aufgefordert, sich mit der Thematik des Künstlerbuchs und seinen vielfältigen ästhetischen Ausdrucksformen auseinanderzusetzen. Die vorliegende Publikation stellt die fünf prämierten sowie 45 weitere ausgewählte Projekte vor.
To familiarize a broader public with the multi-faceted genre of artists' books, the MAK - Austrian Museum of Applied Arts, Contemporary Art in Vienna, the UPM - Museum of Decorative Arts based in Prague and Ljubljana's MGLC - International Centre of Graphic Arts have launched the EU-funded project "Artists' Books on Tour. Artist Competition and Mobile Museum". In a pan-European competition, artists were invited to deal with the subject of artists' books andtheir multiple forms of aesthetic expression. The present catalogue features the five winning projects and 45 other selected works.
Provides a thorough historical survey ofthe impact of U.S. copyright law on transatlantic modernist authors. Documents the growth and development across time ofthe American public domain, as shaped bythe historically protectionist and formalistic U.S. copyright law. Gives fresh insights drawn from unpublished materials-letters by Joyce, John Quinn, Ezra Pound, Sylvia Beach, John M. Price, and others -and makes extensive use of hitherto unknown legal archives.
This book tells the story of how the notoriously protectionist American copyright law impacted transatlantic modernism by encouraging the piracy of works published abroad. From its inception in 1790, U.S. copyright law withheld protection from foreign authors, creating an aggressive public domain that claimed works just as soon as they were published abroad. When Congress finally extended protection to foreign works, legal technicalities caused many authors to continue to lose their copyrights.

Hierbei handelt es sich um Programmheft mit Auflistung der verschiedenen Veranstaltungen, die ab dem 26.01.2023 in verschiedenen Lokalitäten in München stattfinden, unter dem Namen "After All Ends: No New Beginnings - Between Vision and Resignation". Das erste Event fand in der Roten Sonne in München statt. Die Inhalte sind vielseitig und bewegen sich von Klang, Tanz und Performances bis hinzu Gesprächen und Vorführungen.
Rosa Stern Space explores social and cultural developments of a present defined by (post-)apocalyptic scenarios, critically questioned and transferred into an aesthetic discussion space. What comes after all ends? Are there new beginnings? Do we persist in the recurrence ofthe same old? No return to the supposed normality? How do we counter resignation, and what visions emerge from these liminal conditions marked by continuous crises and permanent sensations? Breakdown or breakthrough?

Achte Ausgabe des 20seconds Magazin, ein Magazin für experimentelle Musik und Kunst, dieses Mal erschienen unter dem Titel "The Tide".
Issue 8, “The Tide,” looks into the cyclical nature of social and political movements. In order to do so we take inspiration from our often seemingly lunar obtuseness and incapacity to deal with the errors our planet’s inhabitants continue to make. There is little to say that has not been said, or eroded, after years of Russia waging war on Ukraine, Israel committing genocide on the Palestinian people, and now bombing Lebanon, funded bytheUS, Germany, and many others; fascism soaring in the polls and warming the seats of leaders in so many countries we’re beginning to lose count. Still, we rely on our notions of publishing, of speaking and writing resistance, even as governments continue to abuse the activists doing so on the streets. For the artists in 20 Seconds Issue 8, the tide is something to be challenged, of which to be conscious, a malleable energy to be harnessed, in the form of pain, or even trauma.
Ausgabe 8, „Die Flut“, befasst sich mit der zyklischen Natur sozialer und politischer Bewegungen. Dabei lassen wir uns von unserer oft mondähnlich anmutenden Stumpfheit und Unfähigkeit inspirieren, mit den Fehlern umzugehen, die die Bewohner unseres Planeten weiterhin begehen. Es gibt wenig zu sagen, was nicht schon gesagt wurde, oder was nicht schon erodiert ist, nachdem Russland seit Jahren einen Krieg gegen die Ukraine führt, Israel einen Völkermord am palästinensischen Volk begeht und jetzt den Libanon bombardiert, finanziert von den USA, Deutschland und vielen anderen; der Faschismus steigt in den Umfragen und wärmt die Sitze der Führer in so vielen Ländern, dass wir anfangen zu zählen.
Dennoch verlassen wir uns auf unsere Vorstellungen vom Publizieren, vom Sprechen und Schreiben des Widerstands, auch wenn die Regierungen die Aktivisten, die dies auf der Straße tun, weiterhin misshandeln. Für die Künstler in 20 Seconds Issue 8 ist die Flut etwas, das es herauszufordern gilt, dessen man sich bewusst sein muss, eine formbare Energie, die man sich zunutze machen kann, in Form von Schmerz oder sogar Trauma.

The origin of this work of self-fiction can be found in one of São Trindade’s sketchbooks, this one entirely devoted to the subject of loss or decadence. With references to the aesthetics of crime scenes and nightlife photographed by Weegee in New York in the 1930 and 1940’s, the device is simple: in a "real décor," São Trindade’s body, abandonned and unconscious, is photographed. The body is always the same but differently ‘prepared’ and ‘composed’ with new dresses, new gestures, new signs of a recent activity or a different personality. Each image has its particular story and each space is a sounding board for each ofthese performative states of body.

A newspaper was distributed at selected points during the Kunst Fest in the city of Weimar. Both in newspaper stores and on the street by various performers.
It contained propositions for small interventions in public space in Weimar. These propositions function as a written proposal: in relation to Lawrence Weiner's “Declaration of Intent“ the interventions do not need to be executed but can be read as a manual and performed by anybody. Each format is equal. Every written intervention is formulated in a more or less abstract way opening the possibilities of interpretation for the viewer. Poetic connotation is intended.

Basiert auf einem Faximile von Ludwig Wittgensteins Manuskript für den Traktacus Logico-Philosophicus mit faksimilierten handschriftlichen Texten. The book’s point is an ethical one. I once meant to include in the preface a sentence which is not in fact there now but which I will write out for you here. … What I meant to write, then, was this: My work consists of two parts, the one presented here plus all that I have not written. And it is precisely this second part that is the important one. My book draws limits to the sphere ofthe ethical from the inside as it were, and I am convinced that this is the only rigorous way of drawing those limits.

From Magnum: "Between 2006 and 2008 Martin Parr documented the differences in beach culture between Latin American countries whilst traveling with his wife Susie. Her text accompanies the photos in the book.

Therefore we are especially happy to feature both an extensive interview with EVIL KNIEVEL on his alter-ego and a mind-blowing photo story of SUPER A himself. Also we are introducing a new column at the end ofthe mag that tries to show a wider perspective of our so beloved EVIL KNIEVEL." (Peter Hush)

Founded in 1978 in Chicago by artist Buzz Spector and writers Reagan and Roberta Upshaw, Whitewalls began as a publication for artists working with language. For the most part Whitewalls is a straight-up sampler of artists' experimental projects for the page: each issue contains from half a dozen to several dozen artists employing text, image, and other notations in various combinations. While Whitewalls featured an international cast of emerging and established artists, it also provided a showcase for the Chicago area's experimental art community, including artists such as Jeane Dunning, Joseph Nechvatal, and Christopher Wool.

Albert Coers’ objects, room-sized installations and photographs are presented as multi-layered, often symbolic and always evocative thought-constructions. This publication provides a review of his works from 2008 to 2010, where certain themes re-occur, like interest in collections, archives andthe book as medium, as well as the expansion of artistic media andthe occasionally ironic reflection on these themes. The documentation of Coers’ art practice is accompanied specially written texts that focus specifically on the individual works and place them within a narrative or critical context.

During the life of an artist countless photos are taken, numerous videos are shot and plenty of text is written. In the case of a performance artist this material is even more extensive and also more important, because it gives us a witness report about a past event. When we noticed that Billy archived all the material about his work very accurately and everything was already there we decided to use only the accumulated images and texts, such as: stills andoff-voices from Billy's video documentation, newspaper articles ranging from local press to international art critique, TV-Excerpts, lyrics from Billy's songs …

This publication contains a selection of 60 photographs from the documenta Archive, one ofthe oldest and most esteemed exhibition of contemporary art in the world. The photographs — belonging to different ages — depict the two elements that make art history possible: artwork and spectator. This amazing journey through time not only concerns the history of one ofthe most important exhibitions in the world, but also traces the evolution, customs, and traditions ofthe society that created it. The book portrays a love story between two subjects — a human being and an inanimate element — that are capable of a relationship even if they speak a different language. The photographs capture the moment ofthese encounters, and this is what their distinctive feature consists in. Of course we are not able to listen to the dialogues, but we can still imagine them.

a variation of a SONNET written by Rossetti in 1871, re-written by Carrión in 1972 and subsequently re-written by Pichler since 2009.
It is exploring the materiality of language, how books travel into the world, and how a fragmented printrun can still constitute an organic piece.
It is awkward to read, andthe awkwardness certainly is half of its charme. Due to their rotated binding and blurring through the pages, they also look like Rorschach-drawings.

André Príncipe travelled from Lisbon to Tokyo by landandby sea, with a desire to escape, to go places far away. The initial feelings of uneasiness and alienation fade as empty bars and hotel rooms give place to windows of trains andthe vastness ofthe desert, and return as we approach the Asian big cities. The strongly cinematic sequence was designed to be read from right to left as well as from left to right, expressing the circular aspect ofthe journey.

The Nabokov Paper is an experiment in novel-reading. The project takes as its starting point a now famous class taught during the 1950s by Vladimir Nabokov at Cornell University, New York State, entitled Literature 311-312: Masters of European Fiction. Nabokov’s approach to teaching literary reading was notoriously idiosyncratic. Convinced that one must teach the books themselves, not ideas or generalities, Nabokov would make diagrams ofthe floor plans of fictional buildings, map the routes taken by characters through the spaces ofthe novel, and draw items of clothing or furniture, he would also propose to track the course of a single letter, offer a visual representation of a stylistic device, and uncover what he called the mysteries of literary structures. His methods are striking for the range of gestures they call for in the name of good reading. The published Lectures on Literature (New York: Harcourt, 1980) concludes with an appendix of sample exam questions. Responding to those questions some sixty years after the fact offers a means to explore what Nabokov’s take on how to read might have to teach us today: about the novel, about how reading works across practices and disciplines, and about the past, present and future forms of literary criticism.

Der 1956 in New York geborene Jerry Spagnoli ist einer der bedeutendsten praktizierenden Künstler der Daguerreotypie und hält über dieses Verfahren regelmäßig Vorträge. Seine Arbeiten wurden bereits in die Bestände des Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, des Museum of Fine Arts in Boston und der National Portrait Gallery in Washington DC aufgenommen.
American Dreaming presents a vision of America from 1990 to 1995. Spagnoli took these photographs with a small Leica camera in the classic manner of street photography andthen selected small details from the negatives. The resulting images of gestures, signs, faces and objects are freed from their original contexts and reconfigured. Spagnoli’s subject is the build-up to the First Gulf War, but we see these social and political events at best obliquely as Spagnoli’s version of history is primarily subjective and fragmentary. American Dreaming is the second of Spagnoli’s books in atrilogy about the personal experience of history, the first being Daguerreotypes.

In three years of activity, the book serie took several different forms, engaging a dialogue between disciplines and blurring the boundaries between actors involved in a book process. An independent editor and photographer based in Switzerland, Julien Gremaud runs Micronaut as an interface to produce and publish books but also as an artistic practice through collaborations whether it is an artist, a gallery, a museum or an artists collective.

In the book project A Narrow Scene of Hypothetical Circumstances we access a visual universe revolving around dismembered pieces of familiar objects. Sketches, pictures and materials are united into a steady flow of everyday examination, in which apparent contradictions — painstaking exactitude and violence, empathy and calculation — bubble away beneath the surface. Rearrangement, representation and repression melt together on the border between construction and collapse, with an elegant sense of seriousness.

He was dancing steadily. He could see the backs of people’s heads moving in the darkness and was aware ofthe shifting spaces between their bodies. He did not register the music except as a sort of vibration. He felt as if he was dancing in perfect silence. He saw the already dim room growing ever darker around him. He became less consciousof his surroundings and more aware of himself. His introspection grew but his body was now moving automatically, softly cycling through a short loop of set motions. He noticed dust under his feet, and soon the realisation reached him that he was slowly wearing a shallow hole in the wooden floor. His body was locked in an efficient cycle. Before too long he was six inches below floor level, his head parallel with some ofthe shorter dancers. Yet he could not stop. Gradually he sank deeper into the ground until his face was level with people’s waists. No one noticed, below the eye level ofthe crowd, he was almost invisible. Presently his eyes came level with the soles of dancing shoes. He could see shards of coloured light flashing through a forest of legs casting jagged shapes across the floor. There were points where soft reflected light shone through looming figures like sunlight into a clearing. Eventually he was entirely submerged. He could look up through the hole and see foreshortened bodies moving above him oblivious to his plight. Still his feet moved, wearing away damp, pungent earth. The vibrations from the music lessened until the dull thump ofthe kick drum was all that he could feel. When it stopped he realised he too was still, and looking up he saw the sphere of light was gone.

Publikation zur gleichnamigen Ausstellung vom 15.10.2014-02.03.2015. The exhibition catalogue of republic brings together a broad selection of works by Juan Luis Moraza that explore the museum as a system of conventions and possibilities of citizenship. If one ofthe problems of contemporary democracy is the dilemma facing each citizen – between passivity andthe possibilities of participation in social life – in the museum Moraza finds a space of convergence between the citizen-artist and citizen-spectator. Texts bythe artist, in addition to a glossary and conversation, both developed bythe show’s curator João Fernandes, are presented. The publication is arranged into two complementary parts: the odd-numbered pages comprise a catalogue of works, documents and literary works selected bythe artist, while the even pages make an essay about republic.

In its sense of wishes foroneself, for others and for the future, it invokes a spirit of openness and generosity, a willingsness to give and receive.
