Happy Failure

£14.00

"AT TIMES EVEL KNIEVEL COULD SEEM LIKE THE WORLD’S LEAST SUCCESSFUL SUICIDE. ONE JUMP LEFT HIM IN A COMA FOR A MONTH. BUT THE THRILL OF WATCHING HIM WAS MORE THAN JUST THE VOYEURISTIC DELIGHT IN SPLINTERED METAL AND CRACKED BONE; IT WAS MORE THAN JUST WITNESSING A MAN FALL. AN EVEL KNIEVEL JUMP WAS THE TRIUMPH OF THE UNPREPARED AND INSUBSTANTIAL, OF EVERYTHING THAT FLOATS - DREAMS, FANCIES, CAPRICES - AGAINST THE GRAVITATIONAL DRAG, THE ENDLESS QUANTIFIABLE VARIETIES, OF THE REAL, IT WAS A CASE OF HEROIC FAILURE TRUMPING MUNDANE SUCCESS. INDEED THINKING BACK ON IT, IT SOMETIMES SEEMED AS IF KNIEVEL WASN’T AIMING TO LAND AT ALL. MORE THAT HE WAS SEEKING TO REACH THE ZENITH OF HIS JUMP AND STAY THERE, CAUGHT FOREVER IN THE FREEZE-FRAME OF THE CAMERAS, AS THE TITLE MUSIC PLAYED AND THE CREDITS ROLLED. BUT THE CAMERAS KEPT ROLLING AND KNIEVEL KEPT FALLING. AND EVERY TIME HE JUMPED, AND EVERY TIME HE FELL, IT MADE ME SO GODDAMN HAPPY."

Issue 3:1



Published by: MIT Press

119 pages 23 x 15.5 cm 2014 

£13.00

Ros Gray (London) considers two art works made in recent years in Angola: the exhibition Lion & Ox, which featured art works by António Ole and Art Orienté objet, and the installation Icarus 13 by Kiluanji Kia Henda. María Amalia García writes about past disputes between Argentina and Brazil over hegemony in the region and proposes a new approach to Brazilian cultural intervention in Paraguay. Focusing on Artur Barrio, Jacques Coursil, and Damián Ortega, Fernanda Negrete discusses the plastic arts' non-dialectical engagement with materiality. In the Document section, we present a stenogram of an artists' meeting that took place in 1951 in Kishinev (the capital of the Republic of Moldova, now Chișinău). The text discloses some of the major issues and challenges faced by the members of this artist organization during the late Stalinist era (Introduction by Octavian Eşanu). Huw Hallam reviews Pamela M. Lee's Forgetting the Art World (2012) and TJ Demos's Return to the Postcolony (2013). Azin Feizabadi presents this issue's Artist Project, "Chronicles from Majnun until Layla."

The second edition of Saroyan’s Complete Minimal Poems is a co-publication with Primary Information and includes a new preface by Ron Silliman who chose the first edition for the 2008 William Carlos Williams Award from the Poetry Society of America. Long cherished in out-of-print editions, anthologies, textbooks, and more recently celebrated on the internet, Aram Saroyan’s groundbreaking concrete and minimalist poems are gathered here for the first time. Winner of the 2008 William Carlos Williams Award from the Poetry Society of America, Complete Minimal Poems includes the entirety ofAram Saroyan (1968), Pages (1969), The Rest (1971), “Electric Poems” (from All Stars, 1972), and a series of previously unpublished “Short Poems.” Collected in a single volume, Saroyan’s minimal poems reveal reverberations with the work of e.e. cummings, Andy Warhol, Gertrude Stein, Donald Judd, Ian Hamilton Finlay, and Steve Reich. Now in it’s second edition, Complete Minimal Poems confirms Aram Saroyan’s place among the most daring and engaging figures in modern poetry.

Jordi Huisman
Rear Window



Published by: The Velvet Cell

24 pages  15.2 x 19.3 cm Colour Offset Edition of 300 January 2014

£10.00

The view from the rear of a residential building in an old city exhibits the ways in which people influence their surroundings. When a new building block is designed and built as a single structure and concept it acquires a uniformity and alignment; in older cities a much more fragmented and spontaneous architecture emerges. This architectural informality is in direct contrast with the façade of a building, which is much more aware of its appearance. The Rear Window series focuses on the rear of buildings in European capitals. While one balcony becomes home to a large satellite dish, the neighbouring balcony becomes storage space; a small tree once planted in the courtyard has grown into a massive obstacle. There is also an element of the voyeuristic: meticulous exposures resolve small details in the houses and lives of their residents which were never meant to be outwardly visible. By photographing these scenes in different capitals, national differences and global chaos are captured.

Paris et la Banlieue



Published by: The Velvet Cell

32 pages 15.2 x 19.3 cm Colour Offset Edition of 300 March 2014

£10.00

Paris is a city deeply divided between the immensly wealthy city itself and its often turbulent suburbs. Such a division has its origins in the 1860’s when Baron Haussmann embarked on his grand redesign and redevelopment of Paris that was to forever change the fabric of the city. While Paris has since grown into a modern city, the city and its suburbs still bear the marks of psychogeographical segregation. The very fabric of the city, from its infrastructure to its architecture, has been used as a tool to separate and divide.

Mirko Smerdel
At Home He Feels Like a Tourist



Published by: Discipula Editions

60 pages 15 x 21 cm Edition of 150

£15.00

“At Home He Feels Like a Tourist” displays in book form Mirko Smerdel’s research interests and strategies of artistic production: the observation and categorisation of  pre-existing images or objects, the use of narrative as a research tool, the dialogue between micro and macro, private and public. All the images in AHHFLAT come from a group of negatives bought online sight unseen from the USA. They capture snapshots of what looks like the recreation time of three separate and independent groups of people. Linking them, is their acting within a common frame. Like tourists at home, these people pose and move within symbolic and iconic places characteristic of the American landscape and its culture. Originally conceived as private memories, once these images are made public and seen through the eye of the stranger they undergo an inevitable transformation. By playing on the nature of the material in his possession, Mirko builds and organises 3 intertwined stories that look at american society from an inner and intimate point of view. Joined up by extracts from a text of cultural geography, the pictures in AHHFLAT create a multi-layered narrative construct open to speculation and interpretation.

M.F.G. Paltrinieri
Part of an Archipelago



Published by: Discipula Editions

40 pages 15 x 21 cm Edition of 250

£16.00

The encounter with the island came as a shock. There was something there I had completely forgotten about while living in the city. We walked, talked and worked in almost complete solitude. Around us only the quiet but overwhelming presence of nature. And above all, the light: strong enough to blind me and to penetrate my thoughts. Consisting of two interconnected books, Part of an Archipelago is an elliptical and mysterious account of a short visit to a  Mediterranean island. Through the use of different narrative strategies and intertextual references,  the work combines and plays with different layers of interpretation while blurring the lines between personal experience, memory and imagination.

£24.00

The years 1965-1975 were a period of extraordinary turbulence and transformation in Japan. Rapid economic growth saw profound changes in the country’s social, political and urban structure, and an explosion of artistic creativity. Japanese photography also underwent changes  since the post-war years, exemplified by the nine photographers selected here. No longer focused on the nation or collective, artists like Taiji Arita, Eikoh Hosoe, Daido Moriyama, Masatoshi Naito, Hajime Sawatari, Issei Suda, Yoshihiro Tatsuki, Shuji Terayama and Katsumi Watanabe sought to portray the individual within society. Includes critical essays by Noi Sawaragi and Marc Feustel.
