(…) It could be linked to something like responsibility, in the sense that, when you create a work, you’re the only person responsible for its existence vis-a-vis a third party, or an audience. You are simultaneously also responsible for an ideology, because a work is still a position with respect to the real and is therefore an ideology. Whereas the act of reducing oneself to a pathetic state makes you irresponsible. You put responsibility on the shelf. I was drunk, so I acted like an idiot. I’m forgiven. I had the right to act like an idiot. (…)

Time is a fundamental dimension of the work of Giuseppe Gabellone, and it resonates in all the works shown at the GAMeC in Bergamo. In his photographs and sculptures - the two main media around which Gabellone has developed his language stretching the conventions and possibilities of both - time takes on forms that are not easy to grasp, in spite of the clarity that sets his image apart. It is a time that is simultaneously specific and extraneous; an absolute and present time, but one that goes beyond the contemporary; a time anchored in experience, yet also transcending it.

This is the first comprehensive monograph on the work of Italian artist Massimo Grimaldi. "In the space of just over a decade, Massimo Grimaldi has developed an artistic practice that seems based on an apparent contradiction: producing art as a way of saying that, in the end, art is a trivial matter, and its role in the real world is superfluous. On more than one occasion-above all, through his text based works-Grimaldi has presented an image of art as a self-serving activity that springs from the desire to "be" and is fuelled by the ambition to "endure.

The publication “. and the figtrees in the Alameda gardens” brings together three of Nina Danino’s early 16mm films—First Memory (1980), Close to Home (1985), Stabat Mater (1990)— which are related to Gibraltar as a real place, and as an imagined geography and history. The publication includes the artist's recent work Meteorologies (2013). The book is published on the occasion of Nina Danino's solo exhibition “. and the figtrees in the Alameda gardens” at the Garrison Library, a magnificent library in Gibraltar—established in 1793.

Nina Danino’s films are part of the history of British artists’ film and are listed in many UK anthologies. They are also in BFI National Film and Television Archive public collection. Danino uses image and sound to evoke emotional landscapes; she is renowned for her soundtracks and the use of the voice in film. The books presents the artist's personal archive, showing her working methods and the act of research. Nina Danino ( b. 1955; Gibraltar) graduated in Fine Art, Painting from St Martin’s School of Art (1977) and Environmental Media from the Royal College of Art (1981) London.

In the spring of 2007, in New York, as part of an exhibition organized by Gavin Brown's enterprise, Nick Mauss and Ken Okiishi produced One Season in Hell, an installation whose point of departure was Arthur Rimbaud’s famous extended poem Une saison en enfer. By using Google’s online translation app to obtain an English version of the original text, Ken Okiishi first of all appropriated it and peppered it with jokes, puns and references to popular culture, from Karl Lagerfeld to South Park by way of the hairstyles of certain Japanese teenagers and Volvo cars. Nick Mauss, for his part, annotated the text, and then drew on it. In tandem, the artists then published an eponymous book in which these pages were all brought together, in an edition of 500, which was quickly sold out. From 13 May to 14 August 2011, Nick Mauss presented his very first solo show in an institution at the FRAC Champagne-Ardenne. It was in the wake of this exhibition that Nick Mauss and Ken Okiishi expressed their wish to re-issue One Season in Hell, whose outcome both offers us a new way of looking at Rimbaud’s oeuvre and extends their respective praxes in a remarkable way. Co-published with FRAC Champagne-Ardenne.

Corin Hewitt’s performative installations use exhibition spaces as sites for production. Integrating process and display strategies, Hewitt offers viewers the simultaneous encounter of an artwork and the action that brought it to be. This book, published after the artist’s exhibition at MOCA Cleveland, brings together the documentation of seven installations, produced from 2007 up to the 2013, including preparatory sketches, process shots, exhibition documentation, and discrete photographic works. This visual mass helps understand Hewitt’s practice as a continuum of interconnected actions and materializations, instances of generative discovery and contextual play.

Published in conjunction with Sietsema’s show at Museum of Contemporary Art Denver, Seven Films by Paul Sietsema is the first publication devoted to the artist’s films. In the words of Sarah Robayo Sheridan, “Paul Sietsema compounds organic and artificial detritus in all his artwork, scavenging in history’s wake to identify specific tools of cultural production and foraging for concepts of art promulgated in the words of artists and attitudes of critics. He mines film as a vestige, the medium of the mechanical age, pressing and squeezing its very obsolescence through a contemporary sieve. In so doing, the artist hovers in the switchover between a bodily inscription in the image and a fundamental reconstitution of sight and representation in the matrix of the virtual. Where body stops and image starts is a divide collapsing through a series of innovations and accidents that go back as far as the people of Pompeii trapped in an emulsion that marked their death, but which paradoxically carried forward their image into eternity. ”

Jason Dodge’s practice attempts to give new life to objects, exploring their potential and provoking the viewer’s cognitive ability to imagine a corresponding narrative. Focusing on specific aspects of two works, A permanently open window and Changing the lights – From rose light to white light, from white light to rose light, by hand, over and over, Jason Dodge’s artist book is not merely a documentation of his works but, in the artist’s words, “a record of light changing over a day, in one case naturally and in one case manually”. The publication was conceived and designed to accompany Jason Dodge's permanent installation realized for the Maramotti Collection, in Reggio Emilia – a permanently open window located in what was once the tower of a factory’s electrical power plant, an abandoned industrial space, now transformed into a commercial outlet – and contains selected images from both projects, as well as a text.

Michael E. Smith occasionally creates drawings as organizational notes for his exhibitions: a to-do list may be intertwined with a sketch outlining an idea for a sculpture, and at times, drawings emerge as impromptu phone scribbles. Over the past fifteen years, Michael E. Smith has accumulated a substantial collection of drawings, largely unpublished until now. To complement the exhibition dedicated to the artist, the Kunst Museum Winterthur is releasing an artist book featuring a comprehensive selection of drawings from this period.

Published to accompany an exhibition at the Nouveau Musée National de Monaco, this volume, which gathers scientific contributions from leading researchers, art historians, along with in situ installation views, pays tribute to the greatest set designer of the modern era. Viewing theater as a total artwork in which choreography, music, costumes and sets were of equal importance, Léon Bakst worked closely with artists such as Serge Diaghilev, Vaslav Nijinsky, Jean Cocteau, Isadora Duncan, Ida Rubinstein and Igor Stravinsky, transforming the perception of the ballet. Designing Dreams: A Celebration of Léon Bakst highlights Bakst’s finest achievements in stage design, while also revealing his decisive influence in the field of textile design. Conceived especially by Nick Mauss, in parallel to the exhibition design, Designing Dreams presents in detail Bakst's drawings, costume and textile designs, previously unpublished writings on ornament and fashion, new scholarship on Bakst’s sources and the impact of his vision, as well as exhibition views of the scenography realized in situ by Mauss.Available in five different colors, cloth covers stenciled by Nick Mauss.

Textile Textures: Multithreaded Narratives is a collective volume edited by Marta Kowalewska, an outcome of the international project “Interweaving Structures: Fabric as Material, Method and Message” organized jointly by the Central Museum of Textiles in Łódź, the Faculty of Fine Arts, Music and Design at the University of Bergen, and the Doctoral School of the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow. The book’s uniqueness lies in its multi-aspect treatment of the medium of textile, regarded from the perspectives of art, history, anthropology, technology, politics, post-colonialism, museology, curatorship, and fashion, as well as from personal points of view taking shape amidst questions on identity, tradition, craft, collaboration and kinships with architecture, design, and industry. Individual themes are examined in relation to the issue of textile being a tangible medium of memory and a unique language which, by virtue of its nature, interweaves a variety of different themes.
How Evil Is Pop Art?

This richly illustrated catalogue is published on the occasion of the group exhibition How Evil Is Pop Art? New European Realism 1959-1966, which stems from the desire to reread the European Pop phenomenon via an encounter between two private collections: the Collezione Giancarlo e Danna Olgiati, and one of the foremost private collections of this artistic current. With 42 works, all of which were executed between 1959 and 1966, the book compares the works of 31 artists, including pioneers of early British Pop such as Peter Blake, Pauline Boty, Allen Jones and David Hockney, alongside some of the major exponents of French Nouveau R alisme, such as Martial Raysse, Jean Tinguely, Niki de Saint Phalle and Daniel Spoerri; and Peter Klasen and Konrad Lueg who represent a radical break from German abstract painting. An important position is occupied by the different groups of Italian Pop art, including famous representatives like Mimmo Rotella, Franco Angeli, Gianfranco Baruchello, Tano Festa, Mario Schifano and Michelangelo Pistoletto, who distinguished themselves for the multiplicity of their languages, as well as for their links with the cultural tradition of their country.

Published on the occasion of the exhibition Tom Wesselmann: La Promesse du Bonheur, curated by Chris Sharp with the scientific coordination of Cristiano Raimondi, held at Villa Paloma in Monaco June 29, 2018, through January 6, 2019, this catalogue is a critical overview of a key American Pop artist and an important opportunity to analyze specific aspects of his work: Victorian and post-Victorian sexuality, female agency, postwar economic abundance, beauty, the erotics of anticipation, the politics of the gaze, and strategies of indeterminacy. Every aspect of the book’s design, including its more than 170 color illustrations, is conceived to reflect on the artist’s haptic, indexical painterly approach and oversize scale system. Through Steven Marcus’s concept of “pornotopia” and the perspective of economy and abundance in postwar American society, the critical essay by Chris Sharp examines Wesselmann’s depictions of the sexual, developed formally in the works by means of hyperbole, hierarchies of elements, elision, and omission. The second critical essay by Sabrina Tarasoff leverages Julian Wasser’s iconic 1963 photograph Duchamp Playing Chess with a Nude, the 1969 “breast action” during one of Theodor W. Adorno’s classes, and more to deliberate the intentional in-betweenness in Wesselmann’s work, “interest” as a category preceding definition, semantic versus formal dimensions, and midcentury sensibilities regarding masculinity and female empowerment.

Stefan Burger’s photographic work, made for his exhibition at Kunsthalle Bern in 2017, stems from a long-term interest in the subtle charm of botanical objects. His images achieve a depth that still deceives, however, for it seems to also consist of almost magical surfaces. Flat depths, which may not directly resist verbalization, but from which the attempt to put them into words repeatedly slides off; for example, one can describe how an extremely scanty tendril appears suddenly as a vis-à-vis, or how entrancing certain manifestations of light or luster in the pictures are, since analog photography can achieve a different diversity than digital photography; one could speak about their chromatic auras, about the moodiness of chemical baths. But the attempt to verbalize formal manifestations, to translate the material into language, reaches its limits. For what can language add to the intensity of these photos? Their impact is based on something that can unfold beyond text and external content, in the joy of contemplation. Yet the images also lead away from themselves, their self-referentiality shifts and intertwines with other realities. The pictures are anything but pleasant, yet they bear the potentiality of beauty in that they open themselves up to the uniqueness of something that is—a plant, the light. They attempt to penetrate reality by drawing from sensuousness, to then return in the form of an artwork.

Texts by Philippe Van Cauteren, Stephan Berg, Koen Peeters, Ann Hoste “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 CauterenPublished 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 of the German Bauhaus and 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, and the hybrid nature of the exhibition set-up, a mix of a museum show and an artist’s studio, both essential characteristics of Zoete’s art.
