| Title: ??? (Shimoda) â Ambient Visions of a Dot |
| Sub-title: Ambient Visions of a Dot |
| By (author): Zin Taylor |
| ISBN10-13: 9493146413 : 9789493146419 |
| In Zin Taylorâ s â Ambient Visions of a Dotâ , the artist records a day spent walking around the coastal village of Shimoda, Japan. Captured in black and white, using an old Sony Cyber-shot camera, the high contrast photographs explore a landscape rich with allegorical content. As a process of creation Taylor uses the camera as a skillful travel companion, one that is particularly adept at teasing out the sublimated influences embedded within this bucolic environment. The resulting images, along with a text written by the artist, address the abstract, surreal, uncanny, and sometimes hallucinogenic transformations of one thing into another. A series of ambient visions that document a landscapeâ s whimsical metamorphosis into a language of chromatic form. |

| Title: A Memory is a delay as a Memory |
| By (author): Jerry Galle |
| ISBN10-13: 9464775866 : 9789464775860 |
| A MEMORY IS A DELAY IS A MEMORY isnâ t solely focused on AI. Rather, it delves into experiencing AI within an artistic context. Over the past six years, Jerry Galle has gathered reflections and inquiries regarding working with this captivating technology, many of which are incorporated into the book. For Galle, AI is also a speculative tool, leading the text to gradually transition into fiction, shifting perspective to that of the AI itself. Galle opts to represent â AIâ with a symbol, offering readers the freedom to interpret the concept. This symbolization aims to grant AI a fictional identity, akin to a kin, while also alleviating the repetitive appearance of the abbreviation â AIâ throughout the book. All the visuals in the book are AI-generated, primarily using the Stable Diffusion algorithm. Galle trained his own variations of this algorithm, with some images derived from his personal practice and others specifically trained, for this publication, on archive material of the center for contemporary art KIOSK. Where else could be more fitting than an art gallery for allowing AI to freely explore and interact within a space? |

| Title: Accident |
| By (author): Andrew Zago |
| ISBN10-13: 9490800791 : 9789490800796 |
| n fields, such as architecture, that produce carefully authored compositions, the chance arrangements of material grain, patinas, or other traces of matterâ s resistance to orderly control are sometimes allowed an expression in the final work. In these instances they are viewed as desirable featuresâ even moral ones when touted as evidence of a workâ s architectonic authenticity. Beyond this limited embellishment nature provides to otherwise determined technological assemblies, there are larger scale also embraced instances of matterâ s random nature acting against, and in part undoing, such assemblies. The effects of weathering and the slouch or deformation of structures over time are often seen as endearing informal enhancements to the rigidity of precise compositions. A more extreme but equally well understood example is the classical ruin. In it, a technological assembly (a building) is undermined to a degree that the total final effect is coproduced by the original composition and its material disassembly. Since at least Romanticism such ruinsâ almost always in stoneâ have garnered a level of appreciation that can be considered connoisseurship. In all of these instances there is happenstance; the appearance of a complex, stochastic logic of matterâ both its crystalline or organic growth and its complex degradation in its environmentâ that is outside of and contrary to our instrumental control, unraveling our intended arrangements. We may dress a rock in geometric form and name it â column,â but eventuallyâ if centuries laterâ it will return to its feral state and, if still functioning, may even cause a structure to collapse. This interplay of happenstance and control extends well beyond these familiar occasions and their attendant sensibilities. They are all accidents, and as such they represent only a small, historically aestheticized, subset of an interplay that (potentially) exists in every technological assembly. |

| Title: After the Midst |
| By (author): Raimundas Malasauskas |
| ISBN10-13: 9490800708 : 9789490800703 |
| â After the Midstâ is a multi-layered visual and textual interpretation of HOOGTIJ/laagtij, Gouvernementâ s performance-festival on rituals of celebration. Authors Jelle Martens and Raimundas MalaÅ¡auskas started from the idea of â simultaneityâ to observe, registrate & fictionalise all possible events that happened during those 10 days in July 2017 . â After the Midstâ is anything but a factual report of an arts festival. Martens and and MalaÅ¡auskas created their own stories, in which they allowed small details, fleeting moments and interactions with people, objects and performances. All possible ingredients were treated as of equal value. Just as the festival gradually transformed into a Gesamtkunstwerk of blending festive evidence, so the publication unbinds itself from disciplinary or chronological boundaries. Layer after layer, it seeks new interpretations, new possibilities, new connections. HOOGTIJ/laagtij Participating Artists: Joris Van de Moortel, Rutger De Vries,, Charlotte Adigéry, Nicole Twister ???????, Bert Jacobs, Micha Volders, Jaak DeDigitale, Pieter Ampe, Sibran Sampers, Nienke Baeckelandt, Boris Van den Eynden, Borokov Borokov, De Zwarte Zuster Fanfare, Gamelan Voices, Matthieu Ha, van Twolips, Sachli Gholamalizad, Sebastiaan Van den Branden, Lotte Vanhamel, Kim Snauwaert, Anyuta Wiazemsky. HOOGTIJ/laagtij & â After the Midstâ became possible with the support of Stad Gent, Vlaamse Gemeenschap, Kunstencentrum Vooruit, Provincie Oost-Vlaanderen, SMartBe. |

| Title: AMSTERDAM |
| By (author): Eva Roefs |
| ISBN10-13: 9083438457 : 9789083438450 |
| Eva Roefsâ AMSTERDAM is a visual study of young people living in the Dutch capital, approached in the streets and portrayed by the artist in her studio in the Red Light District. However, the close-up, analytical photographs estrange the participants from the urban environment, resulting in a solid, black and white series whose focal point is the human experience. With this collection of characters gazing back at the camera, Roefs creates a portrait of the city without its landscape â it is the expressiveness of her subjects that defines Amsterdam, by standing against a stark white background and engaging with the medium and the artist. Each portrait feels carefully crafted, with the photographic process shining through the darkroom, delivering images that stand out for their rich tones and depth obtained through hand printing. |

| Title: Anything But Certain |
| ISBN10-13: 9493146901 : 9789493146907 |
| 019 was never going to remain the only place we worked in. From the start, itâ s been a laboratory that swings us into unknown directions, constantly sharpening our sense of improvisation and reinvention on the spot. For three years, from 2013 onwards, we made that old welding factory at Dok Noord in Ghent the focal point of our activities. People even started to identify the entirety of our collective, Smoke & Dust, with what was basically only the name of its nineteenth project. We became 019. The whole project turned us upside down. But in doing so, we became aware as well. We understood that the act of occupying and taking possession of the site was not the goal of our work at all. From the inside out, starting with a wooden construction in its interior and up to the billboard at an outside wall and a series of flagpoles on the roof, we gradually developed the place into an assembly of undergrounds for public and artistic encounter, an emerging space for collaboration that was grounded on the premise that all media at our disposal were common grounds to be rediscovered. Thatâ s when the work began. Thatâ s when things began to move, for real. Thatâ s when we realizedâ artists, architects, designers and the likeâ we had all turned into scenographers, regardless of our discipline: co-authors of a scene that was constructed out of margins and constraints, participants in a game of give and take that we endlessly play around a display we like to recycle. In the end, thatâ s how 019, our handling of its space through appropriation and dispossession, became the site of a moving practice, a collaborative way of working ready to be moved, reproduced and reinvented elsewhere. |

| Title: As Real As it Gets |
| By (author): Thomas Nolf |
| ISBN10-13: 9083438481 : 9789083438481 |
| â As Real As It Getsâ is a photography project by Thomas Nolf exploring humanityâ s need for escape through aviation culture. Between 2020 and 2024, Nolf traveled the globe, engaging with flight simulator enthusiasts, aircraft spotters, and visiting the worldâ s largest model airport, Miniatur Wunderland in Hamburg. During the COVID-19 lockdown, Nolf rekindled his childhood fascination with flying through Microsoft Flight Simulator, inspiring him to connect with others who similarly escape reality through aviation. Enthusiasts build elaborate home cockpits, ranging from desk setups to immersive recreations using real aircraft parts. This hobby provides a sense of control, structure, and autonomy, with some believing they could land an actual plane. The project also highlights aircraft spotters who document planes with precision. At places like Maho Beach in Sint-Maarten, spotters and tourists gather to experience low-flying planes against stunning tropical backdrops, merging thrill and beauty. Through photography, simulated images, and archival footage, Nolf examines the dreamy allure of aviation. His stylized compositions blur the lines between reality and fiction, reflecting on the romanticism and artificiality of escape. |

| Title: Belgisch Congo Belge |
| By (author): Flup Marinus |
| ISBN10-13: 9490800538 : 9789490800536 |
| EN Why copy an album of postage stamps from the former Belgian Congo, page after page, stamp after stamp, and so precisely in terms of dimensions, illustrations and colours? Despite the initial confusion about Tuur and Flup Marinusâ project, when confronted by the materiality it soon becomes clear that thereâ s something interesting going on here. We see perfectly reproduced sheets; sets of exotic stamps in soft hues, protected by a transparent strip of varnish, and framed by an intrusive black background. Go on looking and this painterly appropriation becomes the magnifying glass and the mirror which unmask the colonial rhetoric. When we look at colonial collections some 60 years after decolonization, we are struck first and foremost by what is missing in those collections: the real world of colonial subjects and their relationships with Belgians (and other Westerners) and the structural inequalities between the two categories which made the passion for collecting possible. In some of his best stories Jorge Luis Borges showed the absurdity of attempts to create an imaginary world which corresponds fully to the reality or even to another imaginary world, such as Miguel de Cervantesâ Don Quixote. Flup and Tuur Marinusâ artwork does something similar: the patience and diligence with which they toiled to create it reminds us how absurd it was to try and collect the complete colonial world through collections and by extension how absurd it was to try and control and dominate politically an area as large as Western Europe through colonial rule.

| Title: Bellissima |
| By (author): Carla Rossi |
| ISBN10-13: 9083438449 : 9789083438443 |
| Beautifulâ for whom? Through Carla Rossiâ s lens, beauty is not a fixed idea but a performance, shaped, repeated, and refined in response to the gaze of others.In Bellissima, Rossi photographs Rebecca, a young contestant she met during the Miss Italia selections, tracing her journey from casting calls to national auditions and uncovering a system driven by spectacle, competition, and the tireless pursuit of a narrowly defined ideal of femininity.The images take shape like a choreographed sequence, where the frame becomes a stage for repetition, tension, and interruption. Each gestureâ a hand on the hip, a forced smile, a sideways glanceâ reflects the visual grammar of Italian glamour shows, commercial spectacle, and fashion: codified, internalized, and tirelessly repeated. These movements are not spontaneous; they are learned through years of watching others perform them. By juxtaposing pixelated archival footage from Miss Italia broadcasts with her own staged portraits, Rossi examines how beauty is manufacturedâ by television crews, by audiences, by the women themselves. In a visual culture still shaped by patriarchal ideals, Bellissima reflects on beauty not as a static result, but as a process of reframing the self as visible, staged, and always up for negotiationâ but only relevant as long as someone keeps watching.â ¨ The project is supported by Strategia Fotografia 2024, promoted by the Directorate-General for Contemporary Creativity of the Italian Ministry of Culture. |
