By making us aware of war and its consequences, and by undermining rep...

The sketch drawings in the notebook Ideas and Thoughts by Helmut Smits capture bright solutions and inventions in the conditions of our daily order, perceived both within our social and our visual horizon. Rocking our foundations and playing on our sense of eureka!, these often realized propositions trigger a playful relation with our environment.

Today it has become increasingly difficult to find a person or an object without some kind of connection to the internet. No Internet, No Art is dedicated to exploring what this situation entails with respect to one cultural field in particular: art. This anthology forms both the culmination and a continuation of a series of public events titled Lunch Bytes - Thinking about Art and Digital Culture, held in Washington, D.C., which invited artis...

Diagrammatic Writing is a poetic demonstration of the capacity of format to produce meaning. The articulation of the codex, as a space of semantically generative relations, has rarely (if ever) been subject to so highly focused and detailed a study. The text and graphical presentation are fully integrated, co-dependent, and mutually self-reflexive.This small book work should be of interest to writers, bibliographers, designers, conceptual arti...

Immersed in collector Brad Feuerhelm¿s vernacular photo collection, artist Anouk Kruithof moved into a bungalow where she developed a niche relationship with the photos and transformed the image archive. She visualizes scenarios in which images, through the imaginary space of our conception, and parallel to digitization, leap across the tooth of time. The personal image relations, all but magically approached and released, offer new perspectiv...

Under the semblance of normalcy Aukje Koks¿ works unite art and spectator in a split dimensionality, her paintings and sculptures make us aware of the perspective from which we view things. In Ways of Being these images are being shown in tandem with informal, prosaic reports in which friends, critics and curators attribute a relationship to this reality. This book creates an awareness for the relationship between the image and its perception....

Eva Olthof¿s book takes as it¿s starting point the American Memorial Library in Berlin (Amerika-Gedenkbibliothek), which opened in 1954, and two books, which were returned after 50 years, accompanied by a handwritten personal letter. The library was a gift from the American people to the population of West Berlin after enduring the Berlin Blockade, promoting the ¿illimitable freedom of the human mind¿, as it reads in a quote on the library¿s w...

[theatro] is a rhythmical reading experience, a 5, 5 meters long transcript of a seminar performance, reflecting it¿s original pulse and duration. [theatro] expands on the notion of ¿view¿ (¿thea¿ in Greek, where the word ¿theatre¿ comes from). The word ¿view¿ is also the root of the word ¿theory¿ [coming from the junction of the words ¿thea¿(=view) and ¿oro¿( =to perceive)]. Aiming towards theory as practice, [theatro] is a new work of Lalou ...

Helen Cho¿s performance 21 Objects of Hesitation(2013-ongoing) explores the materiality of ceramics and the poignancy of their dissemination, in relation to her experience of diaspora and Korean roots. Highly aware of the complexity of representation of objects and the prosaic yet seductive qualities of everyday materiality, Cho brings forth otherwise invisible or neglected phenomena. ­In this publication curators Renske Janssen and Kitty Scot...

Combining Polaroid photography and texts in English and Arabic, this book presents creative practices of design that occur on the sidewalk along with the unplanned interventions in the public space that give Cairo its distinctive character.Organized in two sections - walks and series-, the book gives the reader a glimpse into our method of urban empiricism and our journeys on foot through the city, in which we documented street chairs by index...

Of course: an interior constitutes a comfort zone. But when we zoom in closer on this interior, we can see how thighs are shifting on seats, how hands are caressing arms, how people snuggle up against the back of their chairs and how their feet curl around the legs. It is obvious: sitting is a physical pleasure: sitting is intimate. Could sitting even be driven by desire? And: what is the chair's role in all of this?Artist Margriet Craens and ...

Charting a pathway of historical analysis and speculative association outward from The Beatles' \"Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, \" \"The Magic Circle\" is a meditation on the form of the concept album as a point of convergence between the worlds of rock and art, as well as an experiment in conflating the critical methodologies appropriate to either side.
