The King is dead, long live The King! restages Tiane Doan na Champassak’s first self-published artist’s book, The King of Photography. Back in 2011, the volume was gathering a collection of images found on the internet which represented King Bhumibol Adulyadej of Thailand with a photographic camera. The King was a keen photographer and was rarely seen without this device. After the King’s death in 2016, Doan na Champassak decided to complete his iconographic research with a new arsenal of images depicting the former King and his beloved camera in a “sequel” limited to 250 copies: The King is dead, long live The King!

Conserving the Future is the book that bears witness to twenty-five years of curating contemporary art in the same place: the Fondazione Querini Stampalia in Venice. It is a long time in which curator Chiara Bertola has been able to observe the metamorphoses and rebirth of this ancient palace, which, through the different visions of the artists projected into its spaces, have made it many places each time. Conserving the Future is a program and a working method based on the relationship with time, the past, and history because in every project the historical place becomes a subject that asks to be seen, recognised, listened to and then opened to dialogue with present. Chiara Bertola recounts, in a single text that trace the site-specific exhibitions from 1997 to 2022, the questions, thoughts, and discoveries made together with the artists living with them the creative process. She defines a curatorial line beyond the canonical and consolidated confines, focused on the concepts of precariousness and instability. The perception of a time never closed, the intuition of hidden possibilities behind established meanings and the search for margins of meaning revealed beyond the usual confines become the keys to open up unexpected poetic worlds.

I don’t care (About Football) is a participatory artistic project involving the players of the Marangoni 105 football team, created in 2011 as part of one of the rehabilitation residences of the Udine Mental Health Department managed by the Duemilauno Agenzia Sociale Cooperative. The title, inspired by the words of a girl from the community, suggests how the game is not an end in itself but rather a practice of social inclusion and integration. Marangoni 105 is made up of service users together with its operators and supporters. They all wear the number 14, that of the legendary Ajax player Johan Cruijff – one of the most emblematic proponents of total football. Over three years of mutual understanding and hard work, workshops were held in which, through artistic-expressive practices, there was a choral reflection on mental discomfort and on the path undertaken over the course of the residence. Photographs, meetings, travel, training, stretching sessions, performance actions, interviews, writing exercises and collages are the actions that transform the art object into a place of dialogue, where it is the discovery of the other and the self that takes centre stage. The process of analysis/self-analysis turns into a creative impetus via the appropriation and re-signification of images. Through the cut lines around the bodies, it thus becomes easier to investigate that ‘not’, that ‘not’ that gave the project its name, that difficulty which is such a common trait of existence yet to which it is very difficult to give voice, form and meaning.

I don’t care (about football) è un progetto artistico-partecipativo che coinvolge le giocatrici e i giocatori della squadra di calcio Marangoni 105. La Marangoni 105 nasce nel 2011 all’interno di una delle residenze riabilitative del Dipartimento di Salute Mentale di Udine gestita dalla Cooperativa Duemilauno Agenzia Sociale. Il titolo, ispirato dalle parole di una ragazza della comunità, suggerisce come il gioco non sia fine a sé stesso, ma un esercizio di inclusione e integrazione sociale. La squadra è composta, infatti, dagli e dalle utenti insieme a operatrici e operatori, sostenitrici e sostenitori. Tutti vestono il numero 14 di Johan Cruijff, leggendario giocatore dell’Ajax, inventore del calcio totale. Durante tre anni di conoscenza e lavoro, Iacolutti ha attivato dei laboratori in cui si è riflettuto coralmente sul disagio mentale e sul percorso svolto in residenza, usando il calcio come metafora di un percorso e di un’esperienza di cura. La ricerca si compone di fotografie, incontri, viaggi, allenamenti, sedute di stretching, interviste, progetti, esercizi di scrittura e collage, tutte azioni che trasformano l’oggetto d’arte in un luogo del dialogo, in cui è la scoperta dell’altro e del sé ad assumere centralità. Il processo di analisi e autoanalisi si converte allora in moto creativo che diviene parte dell’opera stessa; è attraverso le sagome ritagliate dei corpi che si indaga sul “non” che ha dato nome al progetto, quel negativo a cui è complesso dare voce, forma, senso.

Michel Butor’s Description of San Marco (1963) is an unusual book; an unorthodox intermingling of overheard dialogue from the iconic Venetian square in question, thick descriptions of persons and buildings, along with sober historical information. In the original, each genre of information is assigned a distinct typography of its own, hence interacting like voices in a play.

Six decades later, the artist Giovanna Silva stumbled upon an English translation of the French essayist’s queer text in an archive at the New York Public Library. Returning to Venice, she cast her eye to the square and its surrounds, an iconic space at once populated by signs of contemporary life, but also astonishingly unchanged.

Art for UBI is a manifesto: the world of art positions itself in favor of universal and unconditional basic income, placing in the foreground its advantageous conditions in economic, social and ecological terms. The manifesto was born as collective writing within the School of Mutations, a project of the Institute of Radical Imagination, an international platform of artists, researchers, activists and curators engaged in the experimentation of post-capitalist artistic practices. In addition to the introduction by the curators, the volume contains the contributions of diverse artists, theorists and activists addressing UBI in the panorama of the generalized precariousness of artistic work, the demand for income in transfeminist and decolonial struggles, mutualism practices in the independent art scene, the relationship between finance, fabulation and crypto philosophy.

The volume includes the dramaturgy of Una Renta, Muchos Mundos / One Income, Many Worlds, a performative investigation by IRI on the subject of income conducted in Madrid involving a diverse sample of residents. The performance was staged at the Reina Sofia Museum in the framework of the program On The Precipice of Time. Practices of insurgent imagination. The Zapatista Forum in September 2021.

Cabins is the outcome of Matteo Ghidoni’s theoretical and critical research on “being”. Relying on architectural drawing, and through the investigation of a human most basic needs, Ghidoni produces ten abstractions of architecture, dedicated to the care of body and soul.
Cabins are not residential units as described by modern architecture; they do not impose fixed domestic functions although they anticipate potential daily actions by organizing them around a certain minimum number of elements: a bath- tub, a sitting area, a shower, a shelf, and little more.
The sober character of the project is defined by the drawing exercise, bound to essential principles imposed on the sheet: the rigorous use of axonometry, the grid system for clad- ding, the repetition of standardized elements. They all come together describing the selfimposed and subtly circumvented rules of the game.

EUPavilion Eight proposals features eight projects for the first European Pavilion at the Venice Biennale drawing on both artistic and architectural practices from across Europe. Armature Globale, BB (Alessandro Bava and Fabrizio Ballabio) in collaboration with Tomaso De Luca, Jasmina Cibic, Diogo Passarinho Studio, Plan Común, Something Fantastic, TEN and Evita Vasiljeva were invited by the curators of the exhibition to reimagine the national pavilion – to this day the dominant symbolic and spatial paradigm in the Giardini and the Biennale context in general.

The EUPavilion catalogue is conceived as the collection of the results of the EUPavilion Eight Proposals exhibition alongside the research produced by the collective since 2018. It also features two essays by Sebastiano Fabbrini and Carlo Palazzolo. Its design is both a homage and a challenge to the bureaucratic aesthetics of EU publishing.

Argh! is an onomatopoeia which references a bodily expression, a state of mind described through a sound rather than words. It hints at fatigue, exhaustion but also a reaction and a release of the body towards a situation or an environment. Argh! introduces the recurring presence of the body in Davide Savorani’s series of private notebooks through drawings. They are an expressive necessity, but also an artistic tool of enquiry, a source of ideas, space for personal confessions and emotions.
This publication is an intense selection of drawings the artist made in the last 15 years. In doing this, we have paid attention to the crossing of visual scripts for performative actions, written materials describing personal occurrences or delving into theoretical obsessions. Rather than categorise or index the drawings, the graphic design as well as the text commissioned to and composed by Allison Grimaldi Donahue, embrace a lexicon of fragments, of chance overlapping and of close memories, triggered, yet not contained, by the drawings.

Argh! è un’onomatopea che rimanda a una manifestazione del corpo, a uno stato d’animo, cedendo a un suono la possibilità di esprimerlo. Allude alla stanchezza, all’esaurimento, ma anche a una reazione e a una liberazione del corpo nei confronti di una situazione o di un ambiente. Argh! riporta la presenza ricorrente del corpo nei disegni di Davide Savorani raccolti in diari personali. Il disegno per Davide Savorani è diventato una necessità espressiva, ma anche uno strumento artistico di indagine, una fonte di idee a cui attingere, uno spazio per confessioni private ed emozioni.
La pubblicazione è frutto di un’intensa selezione di disegni realizzati negli ultimi 15 anni. Nel concepirla, si è prestata attenzione alla sovrapposizione di script visivi pensati per azioni performative assieme a materiali scritti che descrivono avvenimenti personali o che approfondiscono ossessioni teoriche. Invece di categorizzare o indicizzare il materiale delle pagine dei taccuini, la coreografia grafica scelta così come le nuove parole scritte da Allison Grimaldi Donahue, abbracciano un lessico di frammenti, di sovrapposizioni casuali e di ricordi vicini, innescati, ma non contenuti, nei disegni stessi.

The book talks about graffiti writing, or more simply, writing. About tags, sprays, streets and letters. With the photographs and words of its protagonists, it tells the birth and evolution of this phenomenon in Italy, how a handful of kids changed the face of our cities forever. All it took was minimal resources, a lot of perseverance and a fair dose of style. Signatures appear on the ground, on lamp posts, on tall buildings, in the tunnels of the metro and on public transport. They are the triumph of overbearing individualism, a reaction to the city itself that tends to dissolve the individual.

Il libro parla di graffiti writing, o semplicemente di writing. Di nomi, spray, strade e lettere. Con le fotografie e le parole dei suoi protagonisti racconta la nascita e l’evoluzione del fenomeno in Italia, di come una manciata di ragazzi ha cambiato per sempre il volto delle nostre città. Sono bastati pochi mezzi, tanta perseveranza e una buona dose di stile. Le firme appaiono per terra, sui pali della luce, sui palazzi più alti, nei tunnel del metrò e sui mezzi pubblici. Sono il trionfo dell’individualismo prepotente, una reazione alla città stessa che tende a dissolvere il singolo.

Il volume interroga la scena del lungo Sessantotto in Italia all’incrocio tra sperimentazioni artistiche e politiche dei movimenti, alla ricerca di questioni che ancora assediano e turbano il presente. Questioni esplose allora, relative alla comunità, all’ibridazione disciplinare, ai processi di soggettivazione, alla relazione tra creazione e produzione sono tuttora dominanti nella prassi discorsiva e artistica della performance.

Un laboratorio italiano radicale, inventivo e non privo di contraddizioni, qui prende corpo attraverso temi e percorsi che hanno avuto la loro prima emersione negli anni Sessanta e sono venuti radicandosi e precisandosi nei Settanta, in quella forma-performance che deflagrava nello spazio delle lotte. Nel vivo delle geografie, degli ambienti, degli ecosistemi relazionali, il volume restituisce la dimensione complessa della performance come campo di produ­zione del comune.

In fiamme è costruito come un oggetto a più dimensioni e polifonico, che assembla diverse temporalità e voci di artiste/i, studiose/i, attiviste/i, muoven­dosi tra teorie e pratiche, tra scritture e materialità delle immagini. Frutto del lavoro del gruppo di ricerca di INCOMMON, è un archivio vivo di parole e gesti che si riattiva al presente, aprendo nuove traiettorie di lettura storica e insieme di teoria critica contemporanea.

Comprising a single roll of film, the photographs presented in this book capture the bespoke furniture designed by Charlotte Perriand in 1961 for use in the rooms of Building E of the United Nations complex in Geneva.

In January of 2021, in the midst of a building-wide refurbishment, Perriand’s chairs were momentarily moved off-site, where they formed the irreverent jumble depicted here.

These drawings give back the intimacy of the everyday to objects and postures which, exasperated within existing spaces, take new positions and discover new sides to themselves, giving life to a sym­phony of small theatrical pièces where stage and backstage are one and the same.

I disegni, questi disegni, nell’insita tensione del loro tratto, ci consen­tono di immaginare gli altri nel paradosso delle loro esistenze, esploso tra le pareti delle proprie abitazioni e di farci sentire meno soli, meno tristi. Immaginare gli altri e le altre, ci restituisce lo spazio del gioco, dell’assurdo, del surreale che fatichiamo a praticare mentre stiamo seduti sui nostri divani.

A miniseries on drawing
This enticing series of little books approaches drawing in its most specific acceptation, i.e. as a peremptory gesture that is gradually revealed, a tool at the service of thought and a primary form of representation. The pages feature both real and imaginary objects along with the caprices, secrets and flights of fancy of the artists involved. With all the speed and immediacy of a snack, browsing through this finger-lickin’ collection – jam-packed full of mouth-watering tasty titbits – will certainly whet your appetite. And once you try one, you will keep coming back for more.

Mini collana sul disegno
Questa serie di teneri libriccini tratta il disegno nella sua accezione più specifica, come gesto perentorio che con scioltezza rivela se stesso, strumento al servizio del pensiero, forma prima di rappresentazione. Le sue pagine contengono oggetti reali e immaginati, capricci, segreti e bizzarrie degli artisti coinvolti. Sfogliare, con la velocità e l’immediatezza di uno snack, questa raccolta gustosa, sbrodolante di succhi saporiti e mai indigesti, vi aprirà lo stomaco; possederla vi darà la certezza di non esserne mai sazi.

The research of Mariateresa Sartori revolves around three thematic fulcrums: empirical scientific method; behavioural dynamics, often in relation to neurosciences; music and sound in relation to language. Depending on the project she embarks upon, the artist uses different mediums ranging from drawing – whether for small or wall-size works – to pinhole photography, video, and sound recordings.
However, such a variety of approaches is merely apparent, and reveals the same attitude supported by recurring patterns of action. These choices enable us to grasp the polymorphous unity of a work which, through single projects and sets, investigates, confirms, and reinvents its underlying relationship to the world. Inside this book three pinhole photographic series, soberly titled Plantes, Nuages and Feuilles which Mariateresa Sartori produced in 2016, 2017 and 2018 respectively. The small-sized works were produced in the south of France, the first two sets on the occasion of a residency at the Cassidaine Camargo Foundation2, the third during a residency at CAIRN, the art centre of Digne-les-Bains, where they were on show the same year.

Fragments of posters with Pop culture icons hang from the walls. An empty kennel, a telephone receiver hanging from the antlers of a deer, a little garden dwarf: they are the shreds of a discontinuous and paradoxical narrative, lost into space and contaminated by the violence and contradictions of history.

Naturamorta is an apparently neutral title that D’Anteo actually explores in the oxymoronic dimension of its etymology, in its enigmatic and surreal suspension, in the uncanny vitalism that lies behind anything that becomes residual. In this dark and angsty scenario lies the paradox: dreams become nightmares, but from the dark zones of the nightmare emerge the traces of a (perhaps) still possible salvation.

The book reveals and explore all these aspects, through an immersive visual narration which led readers to enter the complex world of the artist himself.

We, curators Alexander Roberts and Ásgerður G. Gunnarsdóttir, have been working on a curatorial research under the title ‘Into the City, Onto the Stage’ since 2014. The central point
of enquiry has been to ask how we as curators – based in Reykjavík, Iceland – working as Artistic Directors of Reykjavík Dance Festival – can create a platform, with the performing arts at its centre, where the basic assumptions about who the performing arts are for can be fundamentally challenged and transformed. Who in our city gets to watch it, make it and have opinions on it How to cultivate and shape an institution that gathers publics through engagements with the performing arts on terms that are ardently anti-racist, pro-queer, interspecies, anti-ableist, feminist, pro-worker and decolonising? How to foster a platform that is constituted by a porous and intersectional community of listeners and learners committed to amplifying the voices, bodies, experiences and urgencies among them that are otherwise often under represented, lesser seen and lesser heard? […] We conceived of this book as a space to learn from others that have also been busy devising artistic and curatorial strategies relevant to these questions.

Choosing Venice as the most suitable place to describe natural and social complexities, Altrove. New Fictions sets the outcomes produced by a group of scholars and artists during their residencies in the Venetian lagoon. The contributions that follow come, in fact, from crossing the stimuli proposed by Altrove Project (2018-19) and from recognizing art and its narrations as a powerful tool to reach newer and more coherent disciplinary hybridizations.

Riconoscendo Venezia come il luogo più adeguato per descrivere complessità naturali e sociali, Altrove.New Fictions raduna i risultati delle ricerche portate avanti da un gruppo di studiosi e artisti durante le loro residenze nella laguna veneziana. I contributi che seguono, infatti, derivano dagli stimoli proposti dal progetto Altrove (2018-19) e dall’aver considerato l’arte e le sue narrazioni come uno strumento potente nella creazione di nuove e più coerenti ibridazioni disciplinari.

UN is a photographic diary by Giovanna Silva guiding us through the United Nations Office headquarters in Geneva. A chat-like narration unveils spaces, thoughts, eye catching details and is overlapped by images of halls, old phone booths filled with plastic wrap, textured walls, floors and ceilings, rows of tables and chairs, either straight or curving, like rollercoasters.

“I shoot five hundred and sixty-seven photos in thirtyfive minutes. The genre is known as now or never, and it’s a fairly commonplace form of delirium in this line of work.”

The pictures, all taken with an iPhone, offer an instant and almost sneaky glimpse into the architecture and ordinary life of the building, now stripped of its inaccessible status.

“I believe one of the densest images of Venice, despite all its history and its art places, is the photo of huge letters spelling out ‘Coca Cola’ in St Mark’s Square, written in birdseed and then completed and implemented by the pigeons until its disappearance.”

“Credo che una delle immagini più dense di Venezia, sia, nonostante la sua storia passata e i suoi luoghi d’arte, la foto della grande scritta Coca Cola in piazza San Marco, degli anni Sessanta, con le grandi lettere formate dal becchime e compiuta e realizzata dai piccioni fino al suo dissolvimento.”

All for All! is a trip through All! (2012-2017), a project conceived by Kinkaleri and instigated by the voracious attacks on language committed by William Seward Burroughs. It intentionally strays beyond the limits of theatre and dance, suggesting an outside and setting the possible into motion along an undecidable boundary between the body and language.
