Let’s Become Fungal! - Mycelial Learning and the Arts
Isbn 9789493246287
Publisher Valiz
Idea code 23488
€ 27.00
There is a growing interest in fungi and mycelium as a material, the ever-branching connecting threads of the fungal world. The entanglements and how this rhizomatic network functions is not just a fascinating ecological system and material, but carries a profound usefulness as a metaphor for our potential new systems, ways of thinking and behaviours. 'Let’s Become Fungal!' takes its inspiration from the world of art and mycology and shares innovative practices from Latin America and the Caribbean that are rooted in multispecies collaboration, symbiosis, alliances, non-monetary resource exchange, decentralization, bottom-up methods, and mutual dependency—all in line with the behaviour of the mycelium.

Vincent Namatjira - The Royal Tour (Expanded second ed.)

Publisher Perimeter Editions
Idea code 23489
€ 37.65
To follow the first edition published in 2020, the expanded second edition of The Royal Tour features recent work from Vincent Namatjira. These paintings, shown on the inside covers, continue the artist's thematic exploration from the original Royal Tour suite. Despite finding their bearings amidst the pillars of colonialism, power and First Nations identity, Vincent Namatjira’s paintings are almost impossibly light and personal in their candour. Wranglings with race, politics and the empire coalesce with humour, humility and personal history. We grin as much as we grimace.

Daniela Comani – AZ
Isbn 9791280750150
Publisher Danilo Montanari
Idea code 23481
€ 37.65
The multimedia work of Daniela Comani engages in a dialogue about history, gender, language, and identity. Using photography, text, and installation, she works with both manipulated and appropriated media images and the performance of the self, as in the work 'It Was Me. Diary 1900-1999', where she rewrote the history of the 20th century in female first person, or the series 'New Publications Edited by Daniela Comani', where she manipulated book titles of classic novels, changing the gender of the protagonist. Using "gendering" as an artist strategy, Comani challenges stereotypes, history, identity, and the interpretation of the language. This catalogue has been published on the occasion of the exhibition 'YOU ARE MINE' at Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea, Rome, October 17, 2022 - February 26, 2023.

K-Artists
Isbn 9783949973369
Publisher Archive Books
Idea code 23476
€ 35.75
There has been a recent surge of global interest in Korean arts and popular culture, as evidenced by neologisms such as K-pop, K-drama and K-classic. Korean contemporary art has also captured the attention of a growing number of international biennales, exhibitions and fairs, attracting an international audience to Korea’s local artists and the scene they comprise. This is where our questions begin: despite a growing sense of nationalism in the global political stage, through a post-postmodernist lens, national categorization appears anachronistic. Is the prefix ‘K’ then a mere political ploy and capitalist commodity? If ‘K’ were to be removed, on the other hand, how else might we attempt at providing a portrait of the changing currents in Korea’s art scene? Is collective categorization or generalization ever worthwhile, and if so, to what extent can it be done without reducing or marginalizing individuals?

The Gun of Null Vier
Isbn 9783949973123
Publisher Archive Books
Idea code 23477
€ 30.65
Genocide in Namibia is an especially sensitive matter—its history has at times been ignored, underestimated, or even denied outright. In the artistic documentary Fraitaxtsēs sores tsîn ge ra≠gâ – Ondjembo yo Null Vier, Ixmucané Aguilar has worked in close collaboration with Nama and OvaHerero people who vividly evoke memories and rituals of mourning caused by human loss and land dispossession under Imperial Germany’s violent occupation. From these personal encounters emerge portraits, visuals and narratives as documental fragments, consisting of living voices which insist on defending memory as an invocation to witness and never to remain passive in the face of social injustice. Rather than a linear collection of data referring to distant places and its distant past, this work engages with stories as chronicles calling to be recognised as pieces of humanity and time. Alongside Aguilar’s portraits, this publication also contains contributions by human rights attorney Wolfgang Kaleck and the curator of the work Tristan Pranyko, along with poetry by Namibian artists Nesindano Namises, Fritz Isak Dirkse and Prince Kamaazegi, and narratives, testimonies, chants and mourning rituals shared by OvaHerero and Nama people in present-day Namiba.

Published in conjunction with an exhibition of work by the Los Angeles-based visual artist Sayre Gomez at Sifang Art Museum in China, ‘Enterprise’ features paintings and sculptures in a presentation that explores several major themes in his oeuvre, showcasing the range of his innovative practice. From epic technicolour vistas and dazzling natural phenomena to bleached advertising signs and degraded street furniture, the contemporary city is explored as a tangled mesh of conflicting realities. Recurring metaphors are often used in Gomez’s work as part of the artist’s investigation into the role of context in the distribution and legibility of images in the 21st century.

Presupposing that accidents produce technologies, this book inquires into the forms of power and authority that accidents materialise. For instance, what are the specific accidents of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and pattern recognition systems? And what insights can accidents give about the technology that generates them? Perhaps we can reverse this thinking and see “accidents” as extended forms of functionality, which may be undesired but not entirely dysfunctional. With contributions by philosopher Sjoerd van Tuinen, researcher and cultural theorist Erik Bordeleau, conceptual artist and hacktivist Paolo Cirio, software artists Driessens & Verstappen, and others.

Anouk Kruithof - Be Like Water

€ 50.00
Be Like Water brings together for the first time a large selection of artworks made by Anouk Kruithof over twenty years (2002–23). Exploring and re-imaging photography and sculpture, Kruithof has placed the interaction, collaboration and relationship between people and their (natural and/or technological) surroundings at the core of her practice to create liberating and disturbing artworks. Be Like Water is both textual and visual, enriched with the purpose of focusing in on her work and the fluidity of her practice. This volume is a retro-perspective; by combining and mixing works in an anti-chronological and anti-thematic way, Kruithof presents a newly evolved narrative that interweaves complexity and multiplicity with fun and play, and at the same time leaves room for a critical reinterpretation.

Ex Situ - Plants For a World Waiting to Germinate
Isbn 9788832125108
Publisher Kunstverein Publishing Milano
Idea code 23458
€ 26.35
This book is a tool. An invitation to become allies, to raise questions about the complexities and opportunities of an earthly site-specificity. It is a call for an alliance with plants. Plants allow us to tell sometimes painful stories and penetrate the stratification of history. Their roots inhabit it, and their seeds sprout, giving new meanings to it. The intensity and violence of enduring colonialism and its extractive processes imperil the planet. This is nowhere more dramatically apparent than in Democratic Republic of Congo. Here, Ex Situ embraces what arises from a locality, listening to it, learning from it, understanding its importance, and sharing it. The project aims to repair an ecosystem, and to act beyond the global economic system, including its values, narratives, teachings and institutions that produce our identity-driven, consumerist, nationalist societies. Acting with the culture of remedial plants, tilling the detritus of toxic ecosystems, and regenerating them, Ex Situ proposes cultivating a new sensibility of radical care.

She constructs depictions of predominantly female bodies using a combination of sewn, printed, and painted materials, traversing different artistic and craft traditions. The formal and conceptual aspects of Self's work seek to expand her critical inquiry into selfhood and human flourishing.

Shaped by questions related to place, belonging, and the movement of African diasporas, kaersenhout goes beyond unveiling inequity and power structures, expanding our understanding of racial politics within a broader geopolitical framework. And while the comprehensive overview of her art presented here could be read in response to forgotten histories, the cultural and political complexity of her work also requires a close examination of how these histories are entangled with Dutch coloniality. With contributions by Barby Asante, Jeannette Ehlers, Chandra Frank, Sasha Huber, Rashid Novaire, Gloria Wekker, Selene Wendt, and others.

An experiment in listening to frequencies beyond human sensorial range, Silent Whale Letters is a long-distance correspondence intimately attuned to the infrasound voice of a blue whale, a document held silent in the sound archive, and other so-called ‘silent’ subjects.As part of an ongoing collaboration between Ella Finer and Vibeke Mascini the letters consider how the silent document shifts the logic of the archive, figuring listening as a practice of preservation. The letters chart a process that is equally conceptual and intimate, theoretical and deeply personal, moving through discussions of (amniotic) undercurrents, call-and-response mechanisms, energetic wavelengths, oceanic and archival memory, mysterious scales, and the watery acoustic commons.

Animal Touch explores some of the most important critiques of human-animal relations – centring questions of labour – with an emphasis on an equitable distribution of resources, symbiotic relations and the sentience of the more-than-human world. With thirteen newly commissioned contributions, this interdisciplinary publication shows the ways that activist, literary, scientific, feminist, sociological and artistic strands of work meet, sharing common concerns and challenges. New possibilities of relating to the more-than-human world are explored through environmental issues and animal rights – but also through consumption, the body, language and desire. Through these encounters, this book aims to advance our thinking and imagination about the ways we can establish more ecological and equitable relations with nature in its broadest sense. Animal Touch is dedicated to all animals, those close to us and those not so close, to the privileged, the abused and the overlooked, real and imaginary.

The book contains landscape and aerial photographs of sun-baked salt fields in the Brittany region of France, in addition to tightly framed detail shots of various sculptures. With this collection of images, Yasuhide provides an opportunity to reconsider the concept of time and its unique relation to photography, fixating on two themes which are closely related to the medium: contingency and redundancy.

Pioneering a realism style based on ‘shasei’, the act of painting by closely examining and understanding the subject, Ōkyo’s philosophy continues to inspire Japanese painters today. The paintings on the sliding doors and walls survive in their original context from 1787. The artist did the paintings for the Kakushigi Room, Landscape Room, and Peacocks Room — in which three life-sized pine trees and three peacocks are depicted on 16 panels. Also included are works by his pupils in various other rooms of the Daijōji Temple.

The collective monograph 'Sounds Codes Images' explores the transitional zone between image and sound, particularly in the fields where visual arts and music meet and interconnect. The first section introduces approaches to sound and experimentation in the field of fine arts from the perspective of so-called sound studies and maps the overlaps of image of sound in Czech visual art and synaesthesia from the position of contemporary music theory. It also addresses the contemporary topic of acoustic ecology. The second section of the book comprises an introduction to the works of several dozen Czech, Slovak, and foreign artists who, in their local contexts, experimented with sound, the sonification of images, or the visualization of sound: authors of graphic scores, abstract images, sounding or resonating objects, and instalations or works utilizing digital media.

In ‘Resonant Fields’, Mathias Hartmann explores music-image relationships through sound, photography, drawing, and text. The transformation of sound into visual space receives particular focus. In the works, sound becomes a visual experience associated with touch, notation, or gesture. The meadow serves as the inspiration for electronic sound; psychedelic, noise, and new wave music inspire visualisations of different aspects of sound, such as noise, distortion and delay. The works pursue the idea of the malleability and materiality of sound, creating textures, rhythms, transparencies, and layers. The publication includes a QR code that links to an EP with audio recordings.

Theatre of the Street - Advertising and Window Display within the Context of Modernism, 1918-1938
Isbn 9788088308430
Publisher Artmap & Academy Arts, Arch. & Design Prague
Idea code 23495
€ 56.15
The metaphor “theatre of the street” was conceived by theoretician Karel Teige to describe the vivant and dynamic audio-visual hustle and bustle typical for city centres in 1920’s. He did not mean only the omnipresent traffic, but also the urban iconography, composed of shop signs and portals, illuminated window displays, façade advertisements, and flashing neon signs. The fleeting “theatre of the street” is a key theme for understanding the Modernist style of the Interwar period, yet it has rarely been explored in expert studies. This book searches for common aspects of commerce and art; the “low” and the “high”; the pop-culture, commercial advertisement, and independent artistic creation. The publication contains five expert studies, which present advertisement practices in the context of fine art, architecture, photography, film, and new technologies appearing with the electrification of towns and cities.

There are 64 different words for rain in the Georgian language. Artist David Horvitz worked with Tbilisi-based curator Elene Abashidze to collect these words. This resulted in a glossary that describes the subtle differences in how water can fall from the sky. The wealth of expressions for a single natural phenomenon also makes visible what we will lose through the effects of the climate crisis, when the variety of expressions for rain no longer apply.
