| Title: A Book About |
| ISBN10-13: 2918252298 : 9782918252290 |
| â Thereâ s more to life than books, but not much more,â says the song, with an unmistakable, ambiguously seductive, voice. à bäke, Corinn Gerber, Laure Giletti, Jp King, Chris Lee, Anouk Pennel, Patricia No, and Benjamin Thorel, all agree with this bold statement. As artists, writers, publishers, printers, curators, graphic designers, researchers and many combinations of these disciplines, they are â making booksâ : engaging in the production, invention and circulation, in the selling and buying, writing and reading of paperbacks, catalogues, journals, â zines, websites and text documents. Questioning the scope and value of this activity is whatâ s at the core of this book, that presents itself as a subjective lexicon, proposing keywords for contemporary publishers and book freaks. This book comes after the seminar â Thereâ s more to life than books, but not much moreâ , which was initiated by Art Metropole in Toronto. |

| Title: Consensus (The Room) |
| By (author): Karl Larsson |
| ISBN10-13: 2918252190 : 9782918252191 |
| Consensus (The Room) is a theater play in two acts, that may not be designed to be performed. Characters, props and places donâ t follow each other but they look alike. They donâ t communicate. They remain stubborn, or stupid â as if they were blind to their destinies, content with hearing voices. ?The scene gives room for writing; the stage gives way to the text. Words are to be handled and exchanged, the same way money circulates, glasses are filled up and emptied out, wars are remembered, and phones call on ghosts. Published in conjunction with Karl Larssonâ s show R,A,I,N (Consensus) at Signal, Malmö. |

| Title: Interpretation |
| By (author): Lili Reynaud-Dewar |
| ISBN10-13: 2918252123 : 9782918252122 |
| The interpretation of an existing script or score is an essential element in many performances. Lili Reynaud Dewar is interested in staging techniques and ritualistic aspects of theatre: her work takes the form of installations which include sculptures, texts, photographs and visual signs â and also involve the live participation of musicians and actors. In the suite of exhibitions and performances titled Interpretation, that she initiated in 2010, she develops her own reading, and explores the intimate legacies of a peculiar body of workâ that of the African American musician Sun Ra. The book Interpretation can be considered as the last part of a complex project that wasnâ t organized programmatically but rather, improvised through a piecemeal approach to art and research as such. The publication unfolds this elaboration through a text by the artist and documentation of her working process; it also gathers multiple visions of Sun Ra, from photographs taken by Philippe Gras at the concert Sun Ra and his Arkestra gave in 1971 at the Fondation Maeght, to texts by Diedrich Diederichsen, Anthony Elms and J. Griffith Rollefson on his music, his theatrics and his politics. For a book is less a matter of pinning down the definite truth of a fact, or of oneâ s fiction, but an exercise in opening a multiplicity of interpretations. Interpretation is co-Published with Kunsthalle Basel. |

| Title: Love Your Parasites (Baroque Edition) |
| By (author): Camilla WIlls |
| ISBN10-13: 2918252379 : 9782918252375 |
| Love Your Parasites is a picture book that recognizes the â co-suffering parasiteâ through the lens of the motif in different art practices. Motif is taken to be a charged shape that communicates a desire. A form that is clung to, repeated and ascribed significance, that sticks around for a long period of time: scab, bruise, receptor. In this case contamination is renewal, a recurrence without security. Circulation is an intoxicated survival. The motif feels like something you cannot get rid of; yet at the same time it can be printed and distributed just like that. If you distribute something it has to take on the role of commodity at some point. This book is now released, starts sweating and moves uneasily in the world. Essentially printing these images becomes a reflection on the uneven currency of book publishing and distribution. |

| Title: Mangelos |
| ISBN10-13: 2918252263 : 9782918252269 |
| Acknowledged today as one of the most influential figures of post-war Yugoslavian art, mangelos is the pseudonym that the Yugoslavian art critic and historian Dimitrije BaÅ¡i?evi? (1921â 1987) used for his artistic activity, a parallel career he would only make public in the 1970s. Although he never considered himself an artist, he never stopped producing paintings, blackboards on which he inscribed poems, stories, quotations and philosophical manifestos, all inspired by his historical pessimism and the idea that language is infected by ideologies. He saw the civilization as a process of sensory deprivation, producing a â society devoid of art,â and the evolution of mankind as only aimed at dominating and instrumentalizing nature. He opposed to it a counter-education, through the character of the naïve man, whose intuitions and instincts are contained in the encrypted sentences he traced with the childlike handwriting he created for his oeuvre. A comprehensive survey of mangelosâ art across all mediums, this book includes three essays which renew the interpretation of his art and its context. It offers a particular focus on his early work and notebooks, which are extensively reproduced for the first time. |
